I would like to create a snippet to pull just condos from a given area... I know how to specify areas and such but not sure how to specify the condos.

Also is there a way to pull specific condos..or would they need to be pulled directly by their address?
For example..if i wanted a snippet that would pull Monarch condos (Monarch being the name of condos) is there a way to specify just those condos?

Hello,

It appears that the ABOR IDX feed does not currently have a field to search the condo name. You would need to use the "Street Name" field I believe.

$_REQUEST['street_name'][] = "Monarch";
$_REQUEST['search_type'][] = "Condo Attached";
$_REQUEST['search_type'][] = "Condo Detached";

Would do the trick. I didn't test these out - so let me know how that works for you.

didnt seem to work-- i used a condo called "brown building", created the snippet for it,with the following

<?php

$_REQUEST['street_name'][] = "brown building";
$_REQUEST['search_type'][] = "Condo Attached";
$_REQUEST['search_type'][] = "Condo Detached";

$_REQUEST['idx'] = 'residential';

$_REQUEST['minimum_price'] = 5000;
$_REQUEST['maximum_price'] = 125000000;
$_REQUEST['minimum_bedrooms'] = 1;
$_REQUEST['minimum_bathrooms'] = 1;
$_REQUEST['minimum_sqft'] = 400;
$_REQUEST['minimum_year'] = 1900;

// Do Not Edit Below Here
$_REQUEST['snippet'] = true;
include_once('idx/common.inc.php');
include 'idx/inc/php/pages/snippet.php';
?>

I placed this within our snippet test page and just got a great amount of links ..and no listings,
I tried to update the snippet again with just the street name of where the condo is, and just recieved the same information when i checked the page.

Is there a street named "brown building" ? I think you'll need to put the name of the street the condo is on.

For the second issue with the list of links:

Change this

include 'idx/inc/php/pages/snippet.php';

to

include 'idx/inc/php/pages/search.php';

ok i will try that, however, when i put the street name before it didnt give me any better information...and i also foresee a problem if i am trying to differetiate variopus condos that share the same street..for insantance there are numerous condos on S.Congress, what would i need to include on the snippet to just bring the one address up.

You could add the street number to the snippet like this:

$_REQUEST['street_number'][] = "345";
