On Wednesday, April 9, 2025, we released Matador Jobs 3.9.5 to all our users. This hotfix release contains minor updates to improve the function of Matador Jobs Pro following our recent minor release of 3.9.0.
Release Notes
- Enhancement: Allowed HTML tags in a job description is expanded to now also support
<blockquote>,<s>,<sub>,<sup>, and<u>. This is largely to support updates in the Bullhorn ATS rich text editor, but is good practice for all job descriptions in future integrations. - Enhancement: Added filter
matador_get_currency_codesto give developers the ability to modify the list of currency codes used by Matador. The defaults are from an ISO Currency Codes list, so should be good for most users without modification. - Bugfix: Fixed an issue causing currency code data to not load as intended for users of certain world currencies.
- Bugfix: Fixed an issue causing the Application Processing log data to not save to the database as intended, leaving the sync log data section of the application transcript blank.
- Bugfix: Fixed an issue causing WordPress to experience a fatal error on versions prior to 6.7. Matador Jobs Block Editor blocks leveraged improved WordPress Editor Blocks loading routines introduced WordPress 6.7, but was missing a required check. This check is now added and in place. That said, we always strongly recommend our users run the most up-to-date version of WordPress for security and stability purposes.
- Bugfix: Fixed an issue causing translatable strings to be untranslatable due to WordPress 6.8 “just-in-time” translation loading. This affected labels for Jobs Orderby Search Options. Note: there are more strings that are affected by the WordPress 6.8 “just-in-time” changes, and we are working hard to get all of them fixed before WordPress 6.8 releases.
- Bugfix: Updated Matador Jobs Block Editor Blocks to support changes to block registration slated for the soon-to-be WordPress 6.8 release.
- Bugfix: (Bullhorn Integration) Fixed an issue that was causing Matador Jobs Pro to sync applications slower than intended. For high-volume sites this could create a backlog over long periods of time resulting in the volume getting too far ahead of incoming applications. This fix will ease that problem and prevent it in the future.
- Misc: Updated references to our Matador Jobs Pro documentation website to ensure links match valid articles.
- Misc: Matador Jobs is tested up to WordPress 6.8, with no fatal or blocking errors, however those with
WP_DEBUGturned on may see notices printed to screen related to just-in-time translations loading errors. Full support for changes to translations loading will come in an upcoming patch.
