Thread: Map search results?

  1. #1

    Default Map search results?

    Trying to break something down to individual issues is difficult so I am going to explain what I feel would be good and perhaps something REW could provide as their default.

    Currently when a search is performed the results show up without the ability of being mapped by themselves. I would think it would be reasonable to expect that after a search is completed that the results would be made available on a map and I am concerned visitors are going to leave disappointed and move on to site that has this capability.

    Does this make sense to anyone else?

    Maybe this is already built in and I haven't found out how to turn it on?

    Are you talking about something like this:

    http://www.waterfront-properties.com...realestate.php

    Where there is a map at the top of the search results page?

    Or Just a button to "View by Map" on the search results pages which would bring you to the individual map page ?

    I would think a button to a results map would the minimum a viewer would expect to find don't you?

    The map idea is another option if you could place it where you need it per search results and per page.

    Is there a way in my CMS I can control this?

    Thanks for the quick reply.

    I think you will want to discuss these options with your sales rep. Best thing to do here is to work up what you would like and then request a quote for the additional items.

    If you went with the map option like the link I posted above it's will be a snippet that you can place either above or below the search results.

    Thanks Aaron, , how do I get the snippet, I don't see it of it's there, probably is but it seems like I'm dealing with all kinds of issues - here and elsewhere so I can't take the time to focus like I would want. Maybe the snippet will do, how do I get it, I'll build it with a little help.

    I'm thinking my competition mostly have IDX Pro, and there is a map next to the results or on top or below, so I'm open to help where to place it.

    You will need to request a quote - either by contacting sales - or posting in the work orders forum.

    Thank you,
