I went a little further and made each post flaggable for sale or sold to seperate entries, as well as implement an image gallery into the custom fields. I think I will try and make some more reality sites as there are so many crappy ones out there.

Based on what you’ve done thus far, along with the help of the plugins you listed, I added a couple things people may want to use:

Agent:

Instead of creating a new field for “Agent” like I initially did, I had it just grab the author tag, since, chances are, the author will be the agent. This way the client doesn’t always have to input their agent name for each listing.

<a href=”http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&q= , “>Map

I took your map tag a little bit further and added Address, City, and State fields to the conf.ini file, as well as added the respective tags above, to the listing detail. This pulls up the exact location and photo of the desired property, via Google Maps, as opposed to the general area.

The only issue I’m having now is pulling up a photo for each summary listing. I read what you posted above regarding this, but I’m still not grasping it. Would you mind writing out the tag on how to grab this data and display it in the summary?? I already created the photo field, just don’t know what data to add. I’m using NextGen for the photo gallery, which works extremely well, it’d just be great if I can make it so each listing summary automagically grabs the first photo of the gallery and subsequently adds a link to the detailed listing. Any ideas?

Thanks again for your well written tutorials and help.

Peace.

I just followed your tutorials, and dang, it frickin’ worked like a charm. I’m am sooooo stoked!!! My client will be extremely happy too as it’s going to make adding properties MUCH easier on them now (using pages before, as opposed to posts). Once I get it solid, I’ll post a link, if that’s cool.

Thanks again for putting for all the time. You’re a good man!

Quick question, is it possible to make this all happen for pages, as opposed to posts? My client’s site http://www.NWColorado.com is using pages (for misc. reasons) for all of their listings. I would love to use the functionality and tips you’ve provided to use on their web site, granted I can use ‘em for pages. Any info would be appreciated.

Much appreciation for putting forth the time to not only create the code, but also for the tutorials and consistent help I see here.

Thanks.

Thanks for the tutorial, can create just about anything now!!

You would then add this in:

<a href="http://www.google.com/?q=<?php echo c2c_get_custom('Zip'); ?>">Map</a>


Obviously there’s more code Google has in the url string, but the main point is that if you have a zip code or address setup, you can pull it right into the link. Does this help?

That would be most helpful.

Cheers,
Steve

Place the above in your template.

So for an example, at the bottom of a “Recent news” post it would say:
Price:
Agent:
Location: …etc.

I’m just trying to figure out how to add the info to the individual posts but not every other post (only posts in listings category).

I would also look at: http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Themes which explains which pages load and host to customize the template. Does this help?

I was wondering how I could get the same info to show up for the individual post for each listing. Right now it’s only showing up when someone views my “featured listings” category (#3). I’d like for each post to display the data as well.

Also, how would I place the “view more” button after the info but still have the info before the contents of the post?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Look forward to see what else you come up with.
Thanks!
