Job postings in the dynamic map search

September 7, 2026
Job postings can be clearly displayed on a map using the dynamic map search and filtered by category and location. This makes it easy to quickly find suitable postings in a specific area.

Job postings can be displayed on a map in the dynamic map search. Clicking on a marker opens a popup with the job postings at that location. The exact address is shown, as well as the title and, if available, the intro text for each position. If multiple job postings are at the same location, they are listed together in the popup.

Lists with job postings may only contain job postings. A combination with events, worship services, or other location- or date-related content is not intended.

Part of the Mercury Extension Package

This feature is not included in the open source version of the Mercury template, but is part of the Mercury Extension Package from Alkacon Software. Please contact us if you are interested in our Mercury extensions.
Further information

For job postings, the available filters of the map search can be used:

  • The full-text search scans job postings for a search term.
  • With the category filter, it is possible to filter, for example, by type of position or field of activity.
  • The radius search allows job postings near an entered location to be displayed.
  • The desired search radius is set via the map search settings or selected by the user.

The various search and filter options can be combined with each other. This allows the result list to be specifically narrowed down to job postings that match both the desired field of activity and the sought-after location.
