Topic: What's the syntax for a location's URL eg www.example.com/job/Alabama

I'm wondering how I can link to my different locations.  I tried to search for the answer, but no luck. 

Basically, I have all 50 states set as my locations.  If I wanted to link to 'Ohio' what would be the URL?

Okay, I found this syntax on another jobber board, and it doesn't work with mine, so I'm still missing something

http://www.example.com/job-ads/state/oh should to go the Ohio jobs page.  What am I missing?

Try:
http://www.example.com/jobs-in/ohio

Nope.  Still redirects to /page-unavailable/

I've tried the following cases

job-ads/state/oh
job-ads/oh
jobs-in/oh
jobs-in/ohio
jobs-in/state/ohio
and more.  I've also searched the forum for some iteration of those words, with no luck. 

Is there a setting that needs to changed to enable location urls?

example.com/jobs/category/ works with the categories, so it seems as if example.com/jobs/location/ should work too.


Edit: I installed this to see what type of links it would generate. http://www.jobberbase.com/forum/topic96 … links.html

The url just comes out to www.example.com/jobs-in//

With the double back slash, as if $job.location_alias was null.  How do I get that goin'?
