How it behaves
It still works when things are switched off
The job cards drift across the page; drag them in either direction, pause them with the button, and they stand still when motion is off.
- Motion off or reduced motion
- It shows its final state at once; anything a visitor can press or drag still works.
- JavaScript off
- All content stays visible and readable; controls the script adds are hidden.
- Plugin missing or older
- It pastes as plain WordPress blocks, in reading order, without the designed layout.
Questions
Recent Jobs: common questions
What is Recent Jobs for?
A trade's home page, after the services, where a run of recent jobs shows the business is busy locally, with the emergency number beneath. Typical uses: tree surgeon recent jobs, electrician or plumber job log, roofer or builder home page and garden maintenance round.
Does Recent Jobs need a plugin?
Yes. Designed Patterns come with a subscription, which includes the Pattern Paste plugin that runs them; Recent Jobs arrived in plugin 0.45.6. Without the plugin, or on an older version, it pastes as plain WordPress blocks: the content reads in order, without the designed layout.
What can I edit in Recent Jobs?
As pasted it has 6 images, 7 headings, 23 text lines and 1 button, 17 of them optional and removable. The items are a repeatable set: the item controls add one or remove the last. The layout stays protected while you edit. Unlock layout, in the section’s settings, lets you insert, move and remove any block.
Will Recent Jobs match my theme?
Choose Designed to keep its own palette and type, or Use my theme to let it follow your theme’s colours and fonts. Either works in any block theme on WordPress 7.0 or later. Choose Use my theme in the preview above to see it follow a theme before you copy.
Can the motion be switched off?
Yes. Turn off Animate changes in the section settings, and visitors who ask their device for reduced motion get the same: the section shows its final state at once and anything they can press or drag still works. With JavaScript off, all content stays visible.
