Thank you for all your help – will try it today.
Can I ask one more question, though I know it should be new topic really.
I have 45k uniques/month and am doing well turning the site into a business.
The reason I want the Listings is to offer local real estate companies the opportunity to have their properties listed on the site for a fee. I have meetings this week to discuss.
Therefore I’ll never be the ‘agent’ – am i correct in thinking that i can design a template with this plugin so that I can always add a property with various different agents (authors)? – I don’t want to allow them to be a ‘user’ and submit though, I want to control that.
I will be purchasing premium add-ons and support as soon as I’m sure this can be a business model to add to the site
Thanks again

Yes there are various ways to facilitate having listings from other companies on your site and yes you can design a custom template.
RE: I don’t want to allow them to be a ‘user’ and submit though, I want to control that.
Everything depends on how/where you are getting the listing data from. But there are different ways to approach this. Easy Property Listings has the necessary features to do this and custom code can also be written to add functionality that you need.If using an import system then you can define or place the agent details into the content area and totally remove the author. Once you have your meetings and know what their/your requirements are we can help you find a solution.

This is accomplished with the Staff Directory extension

June 8, 2015 at 2:53 pm #12221westbridgfordwireParticipantHi Merv,
Using the Staff Directory I’m almost there with the plugin and the listings and plan to launch later today.
There are a couple of things I’d really like to change but not sure how?
– the ‘Property Description’ box, this seems to fetch data from the options like address and price etc, can this be either free editable – or can I remove it completely? All
It achieves in my case is duplicate info.
Because I’m trying to drive traffic to the main agents’ listing, my listing has one large image, teaser text and then I want people to leave my site to go to my client’s full details page. So I really only need the ‘post’ element,map and author boxes.
– another nice one would be can I change the word ‘Tour’ when one adds an external URL?– The author box works fine, except the author name when clicked goes to my home page, not a showstopper but how can I either 1. Remove its hyperlink 2.have it click through to author bio?
I think other than these points all else works well. westbridgfordwire.com/rental is the page in the cases discussed
Best wishes

June 8, 2015 at 4:26 pm #12237Merv BarrettKeymasterYes you can create your own template and remove the ‘Property Description’ box and extra info and re-organise the template as you see fit:
http://easypropertylistings.com.au/docs/create-custom-theme-templates-using-included-hooks/Template file on github:
https://github.com/easypropertylistings/Easy-Property-Listings/blob/master/lib/templates/content/content-listing-single.phpIn there you can see a section
<div class="epl-tab-section epl-section-property-details"> <h5 class="tab-title"><?php echo apply_filters('property_tab_title',__('Property Details', 'epl')); ?></h5> <div class="tab-content"> <div class="property-details"> <h3 class="tab-address"> <?php do_action('epl_property_address'); ?> </h3> <?php do_action('epl_property_land_category'); ?> <?php do_action('epl_property_price_content'); ?> <?php do_action('epl_property_commercial_category'); ?> </div> <div class="property-meta"> <?php do_action('epl_property_available_dates');// meant for rent only ?> <?php do_action('epl_property_inspection_times'); ?> </div> </div> </div>
Tour is missing a filter at this stage. But will be added in the next release. You can edit the plugin file for now
https://github.com/easypropertylistings/Easy-Property-Listings/blob/master/lib/hooks/hook-external-links.php
LINE 44 you can see__('Tour ', 'epl')
Change Tour to what you want it to be.RE the Author Box.
When you create a Staff Member like you have you also need to create a WordPress User then set the Staff Member author to that user so they are linked. Then check to make sure the Staff Directory Extension setting that “Author should link to” is set to Author Profile.
Site is looking great!

June 8, 2015 at 5:07 pm #12239Merv BarrettKeymasterStaff Directory settings look correct, just that clicking the author name should link to the single directory member. Can you double check that Author Link to setting and if still no go, provide your login details here so i can take a look (Use the Set as private reply option below)
