Snippet

By default, when you bulk edit listings from within the WordPress dashboard (WordPress Dashboard > Listings > All Listings > Select Listings > Bulk Actions > Edit > Apply > Author), there’s no ability to assign a different author to listings.

This code snippet addresses the issue.

Note: You can only assign accounts. that have the administrator role.

PHP
add_action(
    "init",
    function () {
        add_post_type_support("job_listing", "author");
    },
    20
);
