WordPress IDX Plugin – VistaWP

Description

It’s time to change the way Real Estate websites are built. Today’s WordPress page builders allow you to build beautiful custom websites, but when it comes to real estate websites, MLS/IDX data doesn’t work. VistaWP changes that by integrating MLS data with today’s most popular WordPress page builders.

Features

A Powerful Framework

VistaWP liberates your listings data and turns it into a powerful framework. Build custom-design templates with your favorite page builder, use different templates for different property types, and create unique user flows and experiences, all with up-to-date MLS data.

Beautiful, Unique Designs

Anything you can build with a page builder, you can build with VistaWP. Each data point in MLS listings becomes a shortcode that you can add to any widget.

Custom Search Forms and Results

Use the built-in search forms or numerous third-party form builders, like Formidable Forms and Fluent Forms, to create custom search forms and tailored results. Want a unique experience highlighting a specific part of town? No problem.

Real SEO Power

Everyone knows that the best SEO means creating quality content. VistaWP allows you to build specific templates and incorporate listings into any content, whether it be a landing page, post, or anything else.

Fast and Light

VistaWP is a trim plugin that minimizes bloat and server load. MLS data is served via RESO technology, which is great for SEO and for performance.

How it Works

  1. Install and use the plugin completely for free. You can use the free dummy data as long as you need to develop your site.

  2. Download and import the free starter templates. This will get you off to a great start! Access them here.

  3. Build and explore with dummy data built-in. The free VistaWP plugin will show dummy real estate data right out of the box. That way you can experiment and build out your site before purchasing a subscription.

  4. Purchase a subscription and connect your MLS. Once you’re ready to start using your MLS data, sign up for a subscription to VistaWP, and fill out the form with your MLS credentials. Our team will map your MLS Data to the plugin. This process takes 3-5 business days.

  5. Launch Your Site! The site you built using dummy data will be populated with live data from your MLS! Launch time!

My client was using iHomefinder, which was a pain, not pretty at all, and didn’t offer the customizations she wanted. VistaWP was the only plugin out there that offered complete customization. So cool! Will definitely be using this on other sites!
