Capture Settings

1. Navigate to Capture

From the main Boostie app, look at the left-hand navigation and click Capture.
At the top of the Capture page you’ll see two tabs:

  • Recent Subscribers – a running list of new subscribers.

  • Capture Settings – where your customization controls live.

Click Capture Settings to begin.

2. Open Capture Settings

Click Edit Capture Settings on the right side of the page.

This opens the full configuration panel where you can control the text labels, triggers, and display rules for your Capture form.

3. Customize Your Category Display

Category Display Text defines how you want job seekers to choose the broad area of their job search. Examples: Accounting, IT, Healthcare, Hospitality, etc.

These Categories come from your previously configured settings in Settings → Categories. If you need a refresher, your Categories help article is here.

You can rename the field label to match your brand or industry. For example:

  • Select Job Category

  • Career Discipline

  • Area of Expertise

4. Set Location & Remote Display Options

You have full control over:

  • Whether to show Location Only, Remote Only, or Location + Remote

  • The display text that appears to applicants (example: “Desired Location”)

For Remote Jobs Display Text, choose terminology that fits your business tone - “Work Remote,” “Remote Options,” or anything you prefer.

5. Choose When Capture Appears (Trigger Settings)

Capture is a powerful conversion tool - similar to e-commerce exit-intent pop-ups. When someone is browsing jobs but starts to leave, Boostie can step in and offer a simple job alert subscriber form.

This gives candidates one more chance to engage, even if they aren’t ready to apply. When they subscribe, Boostie will automatically send them relevant job alerts based on their preferences.

You can choose from three triggers:

  • Exit Intent – Show the form when a visitor is about to leave the page

  • Time Delay – Show after a set amount of time

  • Badge Only – Only show when someone clicks your Job Alert badge

6. Choose Where the Form Displays

You have two options:

  • Display on all pages – Capture appears everywhere on your site

  • Select URLs – Only display Capture on specific pages you define

    ..

To customize where the Capture form appears, add keywords for URLs you want Boostie to detect and keywords for URLs to exclude. Remove terms by clicking the garbage can icon if needed.

7. Mobile Display Setting

Depending on how your audience behaves on mobile, you can choose to:

  • Show Capture on mobile, or

  • Hide Capture on mobile (if you prefer a simplified experience)

This is entirely your choice - Boostie will honor whichever you select.

Lastly, Click Save to apply all updates on your Capture Settings slide out.

8. Preview the Form

As you update your Capture Settings, the Preview on the right side updates in real time so you can see exactly what job seekers will experience. This includes:

  • Display text for:

    • Category dropdown

    • Location dropdown

  • Remote preferences and toggle

That’s it!

Once your settings look right, you’re ready to launch Capture. Before you leave the page, make sure to:

  • Toggle the Activate switch to ON (green) so Capture becomes live on your site.

After activation, Capture will immediately begin converting more visitors into subscribers and feeding those insights into your Boostie dashboard.
