Accumulated Context

Decisions

Decisions are logged in PROJECT.md Key Decisions table. 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
