Recent decisions affecting current work:
|
|
|
|
| Phase | Decision | Rationale |
|
|
|-------|----------|-----------|
|
|
| 01-02 | Custom capability_type 'job_offer' not 'post' | Security isolation - prevents providers from accessing regular posts |
|
|
| 01-02 | German labels for CPT | Per PROJECT.md: German only for v1 |
|
|
| 01-02 | Archive slug 'jobangebote' | German URL structure for SEO and clarity |
|
|
| 01-03 | Jobs submit to pending status | Enforces admin approval workflow per PROJECT.md core value |
|
|
| 01-03 | Logo as image ID not URL | Better media library integration, access to all sizes |
|
|
| 01-03 | Deactivation reason field conditional | Shows only when status != publish for clean admin UI |
|
|
| 02-01 | Programmatic Formidable form creation | Form config in code ensures consistent field structure across environments |
|
|
| 02-01 | Auto-login after registration | Seamless UX - users don't need to log in separately after registering |
|
|
| 02-01 | Username from email prefix | Simpler than asking for separate username, with uniqueness checks |
|
|
| 02-02 | Combined login/registration page | Single entry point reduces user confusion, matches PROJECT.md requirements |
|
|
| 02-02 | Inline CSS for page styling | Self-contained styling, avoids enqueueing complexity for v1 |
|
|
| 02-03 | Dashboard shows pending/draft jobs | Providers need visibility into submission status, not just published |
|
|
| 02-04 | Profile.php exception for providers | Providers must be able to change password/email without WP-Admin access |
|
|
| 02-04 | admin-ajax.php exception | Required for Formidable forms and frontend AJAX to work |
|
|
| 03-01 | Job submissions create posts with 'pending' status | Enforces admin moderation workflow per PROJECT.md core value |
|
|
| 03-01 | Form fields map directly to ACF meta fields via Formidable's Create Post action | Simplifies data flow and maintains single source of truth |
|
|
| 03-01 | Logo uploaded as file field, stored as attachment ID in ACF | Better media library integration, access to all sizes |
|
|
| 03-01 | Success redirect to provider dashboard after submission | Seamless UX - users see their submission immediately |
|
|
| 03-02 | Edit form validates ownership via frm_validate_entry hook | Prevents URL parameter tampering attacks |
|
|
| 03-02 | Dashboard shows edit form OR listings, not both simultaneously | Cleaner UX, single-purpose views |
|
|
| 03-02 | Post status reset to pending after edit | Ensures re-approval after changes, prevents abuse |
|
|
| 03-03 | transition_post_status to detect only initial pending submissions | Avoids email spam on updates |
|
|
| 03-03 | Email sent to admin_email option (WordPress site admin) | Standard WordPress convention for admin notifications |
|
|
| 03-03 | Email includes direct edit link for quick access | Enables efficient moderation workflow |
|
|
| 03-04 | Removed default 'author' and 'date' columns in favor of custom columns | Cleaner admin interface with relevant moderation info |
|
|
| 03-04 | Admin hooks only loaded when is_admin() is true | Frontend performance optimization |
|
|
| 03-04 | Made columns sortable including ACF fields | Enables efficient workflow sorting by date, location, or type |
|
|
| 04-01 | Deactivation form validates ownership via frm_validate_entry hook | Prevents URL parameter tampering attacks on deactivation |
|
|
| 04-01 | Deactivation updates post_status to 'draft' | Removes from public view while preserving for potential reactivation |
|
|
| 04-01 | Required reason field for deactivation | Captures business intelligence about why jobs are removed |
|
|
| 04-01 | Deactivate button only for published jobs | Reduces UI clutter and prevents confusion with pending/draft jobs |
|
|
| 04-01 | Destructive button styling (red) for deactivate | UX best practice signals significant action to prevent accidental clicks |
|
|
| 04-02 | Deactivation notification triggered only on publish→draft transitions | Prevents spam on draft saves, only notifies on genuine deactivations |
|
|
| 04-02 | Email includes deactivation reason for business intelligence | Allows admins to track patterns and platform effectiveness |
|
|
| 04-02 | Used current_time() for deactivation timestamp | Captures actual deactivation moment rather than post modified date |
|
|
| 04-02 | Deactivation notification follows submission notification pattern | Consistency makes code predictable and maintainable |
|
|
| 05-02 | Email pre-fill uses current_user email for logged-in mentors | Convenience feature reduces friction in application process |
|
|
| 05-02 | Form stays on detail page after submission (no redirect) | Keeps user context, better UX for job browsing flow |
|
|
| 05-02 | Application notification follows established pattern | Consistency with other notifications (German, error logging, HTML email) |
|
|
| 05-02 | Provider email sourced from ACF field job_contact_email | Uses established field from Phase 01-03, maintains data consistency |
