• Security hardening and bug fixes.
  • Check the application before storing uploaded files, and apply the sign-in and reCAPTCHA settings to application submissions.
  • Check resume ownership when applying with a resume.
  • Restrict status changes on the employer dashboard to application statuses.
  • Escape application data in the admin list and templates, and keep notification email headers and subjects to a single line.
  • New application upload directories get random names. Existing directories are unchanged.
  • CSV export values that start with =, +, -, @, a tab or a carriage return now get a leading apostrophe, so spreadsheet apps don’t treat them as formulas.
  • Fix application form field labels containing special characters, such as apostrophes, not appearing in application emails.
  • Fix the label of Output Content fields not showing on application forms.
  • Fix a PHP warning when applying with a resume to a job that uses an application URL.
  • Fix a deprecation notice from WP Job Manager when reCAPTCHA is enabled on the application form.
  • Template change: application-form.php, job-application-header.php and job-application-footer.php now escape their output. Themes that override these templates should update their copies.
  • Developer note: the application_form_validate_fields filter now runs before uploaded files are stored, and receives file fields as $_FILES-style arrays instead of uploaded file objects. Custom validation that reads uploaded file URLs needs updating.
