Is it possible to adjust Flarum like a job board software?

vovkata

I really like Flarum and I wonder can I make it work as a job board with 2 separate registrations (for employee and recruiter). Also, when registering as an employee to have different fields where you can add location, skills, years of experience (actually all necessary data for a good CV). And then, based on these fields, to extend the search - if a recruiter wants to search based on a skill or location (or both). Also, only recruiters will be able to post new topics and employees will be able to post only replies.

vovkata honestly I think there are better solutions (like WordPress plugins) than to modify a forum software to this extend. Some of what you want to do would be possible with Formalaire (https://extiverse.com/extension/kilowhat/flarum-ext-formulaire). But especially the separated logins and data views will be tricky.

vovkata I think this is perfectly possible (and I have been considering it).

To add custom fields to profiles you can use Masquerade:

Then if you want to demand payment for posted vacancies by recruiters you can wait for @clarkwinkelmann who is writing some kind of marketplace framework extension or you can use Payments which allows you to demand payment before discussions in certain tags are published (PTP), see:

I would not separate the log ins though and search for Masquerade might need some tuning for the use case.

WordPress is a hog. Unbelievable that 30% of the web is under the cap of this slow CMS.

I like it. Probably I would like to monetize access to the so-called "CV/Resume Database". I would put a certain amount of posts per day for free and if someone wants more he has to pay a small monthly subscription. Or, if I don't limit the posts per day, a private messaging / chat system (I saw a similar extension in the forum). But then the free members should have a limit to the number of messages per day.
But searchable CV/Resume Database is a must for me because such system is missing in my Country.

vovkata I am not entirely sure that masquerade suffices for that purpose. If you really want to lean heavily on user provided resume data, you probably need a custom extension or you need software tailored to that purpose.
