Real Estate Listing
The Real Estate document type is used to create a listing of available properties within the club or association. Clubs looking to provide their membership or visitors of their site with the ability to peruse properties for sale in the area can easily accomplish this using the Real Estate document.




 
The Real Estate document aggregates all of the Real Estate Listings created below it and displays them on one page. Each Real Estate Listing will have its own entry on the Real Estate page with a preview image, as well as important information such as square footage, lot size, bedrooms/bathrooms, amenities, and even pricing. When users click on a particular listing it will redirect them to the Real Estate Listing page on which they’ll find a long description of the property, light box gallery of up to 10 images and all other relevant information.

Creating A New Real Estate Page

  1. Log into your website and navigate to Club Central > Content
  2. Click on 'New' to create a new document, or right click on an existing document to create a new child document under it. Select the document type 'Real Estate'.
  3. Enter the name of this document as it will appear in your navigation. Examples are 'Real Estate Listing', 'Properties for Sale', etc. Click 'Save'.
  4. Once your Real Estate page is created you can add Real Estate Listings under it so that they are  featured on this page. Think of this process as if it were a photo gallery; you first need to create the gallery to hold the images, followed by adding the images to the gallery.
The majority of content within your Real Estate Page comes from the Real Estate Listing document type. When creating a listing and populating the required fields you will also have the ability of uploading a teaser image that will be displayed for each listing under the Real Estate Page. Follow the steps below to create a new Real Estate Listing document under your Real Estate Page.

Creating A New Real Estate Listing

  1. Select the Real Estate Page that was created "Properties for Sale"
  2. Click on 'New' to create a new document, select the document type 'Real Estate Listing'.
  3. Enter the name of this document (Title: Spacious Open Concept 2 Storey) as it will appear in your navigation. Enter additional information as necessary


Title: The title for the property you want to show at Real Estate page.
Photo: You can upload a teaser image of the property. This will be used in the Real Estate Page when viewing all the properties, not the Real Estate Listing.
Date Label: label for the date you want to display. i.e. "Listing Date"
Date: Enter the particular date or you can select ‘Now’ option if you want to use current date.

From here you can use any of the nine available label and text fields to customize your listing, some of which have labels that are populated by default. For instance, you may want to display the address after the date - for this enter "Address" in Box2 Label and enter the actual address into Box2 Text, such as "45 Vogell Rd, Richmond Hill, Ontario".

NOTE: You can use up to nine labels and corresponding text fields on your listing. The first five label and text fields are used in your Real Estate Page, along with the teaser image, date and description of the listing.
  1. Ensure that you have selected your new real estate page from Club Central's content tree to the left (see below). Click on 'New' to create a new document, or right click on your new real estate page and select 'New'. You should only see one document type available, 'Real Estate Listing'.
  2. The Real Estate Listing page includes nine editable labels and fields, a teaser photo, title, date added, and description. The description area for your listing is HTML enabled, allowing unique styling and embed codes to be added such as pictures and a video.

Click 'Save' to save your new listing.
 

Adding Images To Your Listing


Listing pages are configured to include a lightbox gallery in the left column of the listing. The light box gallery will display the first 10 images upload by default, but users can use 'next' and 'previous' buttons below it to navigate to additional images.

To upload an image to your listing:
  1. Ensure that your new listing is selected on your content tree to the right.
  2. Select 'New' to insert a new file under your listing. Choose the 'File' document type.
  3. Click 'Browse' to upload an image from your desktop computer to the listing. Click upload to upload the file
  4. Once your image is uploaded you can use the 'Save' button to finish uploading photos, or 'Save and create another' to quickly add another photo.

The images uploaded will be displayed as small teaser images within your Real Estate Listing. Since it is essentially a photo gallery, users can click on any image to view the gallery with larger images.
