Job Company Information

By default, LoxoWP shows one site-wide company — the name, website and logo you enter under Company Settings — on every job. That fits agencies presenting their own brand. But if you want each job to display and mark up the hiring company instead, the Job Company Information feature (added in v2.3.0) imports each job’s own company name, logo and website from Loxo and uses them in the job schema, in the [loxo-job-company] shortcode and in the Job Company block.

Requirements

  • LoxoWP 2.3.0 or later.
  • A completed job sync after updating — company data is stored during sync, so run one full sync (or wait for the next scheduled one) before the new data appears.

Enabling the Feature

Go to Loxo Jobs → Settings, scroll to the Company Settings section and check Use Job Company Information. The option is off by default — with it unchecked, the plugin behaves exactly as before and only the site-wide Company Settings are used.

Because company data is stored on every sync regardless of the checkbox, ticking it takes effect immediately for jobs that have already synced on 2.3.0 — no re-sync needed at that point.

How It Works

During each sync, the plugin stores the company name, logo and website Loxo provides for every job:

  • Name and logo come with the job itself. The logo is displayed directly from Loxo’s CDN — it is not copied into your Media Library.
  • Website is looked up from the Loxo companies API. Lookups are cached for a day, so a sync makes at most one extra request per distinct company.
  • Hidden companies — when a recruiter hides the client on Loxo, nothing about that company is stored, and the job falls back to your site-wide Company Settings everywhere the feature applies.

The Shortcode

Use [loxo-job-company] to display the job’s company logo and name. On a single job page it picks up the current job automatically; elsewhere, pass the job’s WordPress post ID with the id parameter.

  • id — WordPress post ID of the job. Optional on single job pages.
  • show_logo — yes or no. Default yes.
  • show_name — yes or no. Default yes.

Show only the logo on a job page:

[loxo-job-company show_name="no"]

When the company has a website, the name renders as a link to it; otherwise it renders as plain text. The output is wrapped in a .loxo-job-company element (logo: .loxo-job-company__logo, name: .loxo-job-company__name) for CSS targeting, and the markup comes from the overridable job-company.php template — see Template Customization.

The Job Company Block

If you build with the block editor, add the Job Company block instead — it renders the same output and offers Show Logo and Show Name toggles in the block settings. See Gutenberg Blocks for the full block list.

Effect on Job Schema

With the feature enabled, the hiringOrganization in each job’s JobPosting structured data uses that job’s own company: the company name, its logo (omitted when Loxo has none), and the company website as sameAs. Google for Jobs can then attribute each listing to the actual hiring company. Jobs with a hidden or missing company keep using the site-wide Company Settings, so the schema always names a company. See Job Schema and SEO for the full markup reference.

Troubleshooting

  • Nothing renders — the job’s company is hidden (or the feature is off) and no site-wide company name is set under Company Settings. The shortcode and block output nothing rather than an empty box.
  • Every job still shows the site-wide company — either the checkbox is off, or no sync has completed since updating to 2.3.0. Run a sync from the Synchronize Now panel under Loxo Jobs → Settings.
  • Logo missing for one job — Loxo has no logo uploaded for that company (placeholder images are never used), or the company is hidden on Loxo.
  • Name is not linked — the company has no website set in Loxo. Website lookups are cached for a day, so a website added on Loxo can take one day plus a sync to appear.
