✅ Setting Up Consultant Email Fields Correctly for Job Widgets

To ensure that consultant contact details display and function properly across job and consultant widgets, it's crucial to configure the email and email2 fields correctly within the CMS.

? Required Field Setup

  • email field is Rich Text

  • email2 field is Link

  • Consultant profile connected and working ✅


❌ Non-Working Examples (Incorrect Setup)

  1. opcybertalent.com – Account Executive job

    • email field is currently a Link → this causes widget display issues

  2. infratechsolutions.com – SOX Consultant job

    • Same issue: email field is incorrectly set as Link


✅ Quick Fix

  1. Go to the Consultant collection in web editor.

  2. Change the email field to Rich Text.

  4. Save and re-publish the site.

  5. Refresh job/consultant widgets if needed.


? Tested & Confirmed

Manuel confirmed the fix by updating objectivepartners.co job with a Rich Text email field—issue resolved.

  • Re-publish and refresh collections after updating
