What a design template does not include
Most products sold as job board templates are the frontend only: a listing page, a search layout, and a job detail page. Storing listings, taking applications, giving employers their own accounts, charging them, and emitting valid job posting structured data are all left for you to build or buy separately. On a WordPress theme those pieces are annual add-ons; on Webflow or Framer they are third-party subscriptions stitched together. Everything in the list below is already wired into the templates on this page, including automatic Google for Jobs structured data on every listing.
-
Listing management. Post, edit, expire and import jobs from a real dashboard.
-
Employer accounts. Employers sign up, post, and manage their own listings.
-
Application handling. Applications arrive tracked, with resumes attached.
-
Payments. Charge per post, in packages, or on a subscription.
-
Google for Jobs schema. Valid JobPosting structured data on every listing, automatically.
-
Hosting and a custom domain. Nothing to install, patch, or renew.

Job board template questions
The five things people ask most before picking a template.
Can I customize the design?
Yes, completely. Every template is a starting point rather than a fixed layout: colours, typography, copy, sections, and page structure are all editable, and the AI editor makes changes by description rather than by code. You can also edit the underlying code directly if you want to.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. Pick a template, change what you want in the visual editor, and publish. Coding is optional rather than required, which is the main practical difference between this and buying a WordPress theme or a Webflow template.
Can I use my own domain?
Yes. Every board can run on your own domain with SSL handled for you. You can start on a free kardow.com subdomain and move to your own domain at any point without rebuilding anything.
What is included versus a WordPress theme?
A WordPress job board theme is the design only. Applications, paid listings, and job alerts are separate annual add-ons, typically from $159 a year on top of the theme and hosting. These templates include listing management, employer accounts, application handling, payments, and Google for Jobs structured data in the plan price, with nothing to install or patch.
Can I switch templates later?
Yes. Your jobs, employers, applications, and settings live in your account rather than in the template, so changing the look does not touch your data or your URLs. Switching is a design change, not a migration.
