Did you guys hear about the vote that is about to happen? Apparently they are voting on whether or not Google should be able to scrape the public MLS and display listings in the search results. Game changer.

I think there is an open realty plugin for wordpress. See (Please don't link to this site)

Cant tell if they ever got it done or got it fully tested.

If its for real then theoretically you could use an idx or rets connector found here: http://www.transparent-realestate.co...arentrets.html

Just remember you would still need a horsed up hosting account

Thanks Captain Mike,


I am wondering the same thing, If he ever got it completed. I will have to look into it.

So what was the final answer on WORDPRESS and doing an IDX presentation that isn't an IFRAME?

I've just gotten a wordpress site and was wondering about how to go about implementing the IDX or at least using what my MLS provides me.

[Eric Blackwell]

The final answer in my book is that a) there are no current IDX plugins for WP due to the EXACT reason Morgan mentioned. There is no way for a plugin to handle all of the different MLS's in one plugin

b) You CAN frame in IDX's into WP and get the benefits of a basic IDX for relatively cheap.

Most importantly...IMO...if you are going to do a full blown IDX solution (not framed in), then you might as well call up Morgan and get a full blown site here at REW.

Best;

Eric

Ron, you already have a REW site, right? I feel certain that you can have them create some sort of quick search for you and draw them back to your main site - to me that would be the goal - especially if it is a niche or neighborhood site. Just don't know if you might run into compliance issues with your MLS - worth checking out.
