Release Notes – 2019.06.13

Updates

• Keyword Mapping
  Slowly and steadily, MLS by MLS, we’re adding a richer keyword search experience. It’s still not a “type anything you want” search, but there are a lot more values available. We’re giving priority to the boards used by customers with existing keyword request tickets. We can accommodate customer requests for new values that are present in their IDX data feeds. 14 boards are fully mapped, updated and turned on in the wild:
  • AK-AKMLS
  • AR-HOTSPRINGS
  • AR-JABOR
  • AR-MABOR
  • AR-NCBORMH
  • AZ-PAAR
  • AZ-WARDEX
  • CA-BBVBOR
  • CA-CCAR
  • CA-SACMLS
  • CO-COMLS
  • FL-DAYTONA
  • OR-RMLS
• Began IDX Migrations
  Began migrating existing customers to the new IDX templates
  We’ll be testing this with a small subset of customers to see what kind of response we get. We’ll be starting by targeting Agent Pro accounts.
  • Only Pro package accounts (with IDX) can migrate
  • Express packages cannot migrate
  • Offices: all websites (main office site and all child agent sites) must migrate at the same time or none of them at all.
  • This is at no cost – no fee, no price increase. Customers will continue to pay whatever they have been paying.
• IDX Migration Blog Post
  We’ve published a blog post that talks about what’s new, and answers some FAQs.

• Saved Search by Location tool – extra validation
  Added validation check on the Search Variations that stops form submission if any are missing a Link Text value
• Tax Info Block
  A new “taxes” section has been added to the “more info” block of our react IDX (only when there is tax info available in the listing feature data)
• Custom IDX Search Form Pages
  There is a new page type available for react templates called “Custom IDX Search Pages” which can be used to build more customizable search pages. New accounts will have “Custom IDX Search Pages” in place of the old search pages (quick search, advanced search, etc.). Old accounts will retain their old search pages, but they do have the option to create new “IDX search form” versions at any time
• Registration Benefits Message Character Limit Warning
  Added warning text to keep the message brief – ideally one sentence.
• “New Listing” Flag Control
  React templates now provide and support the Listing Display setting to control how long listings are considered new.
• Dotster email IMAP Integration
  Added support for IMAP integration for email accounts provided by dotster.com.
• Simple zip
  When searching for zips in react IDX, autocompletes will now offer a “simple zip” option in addition to the current zip/city/state combined results.
• React app optimizations
  Improved general client side performance of the IDXv5 Map

Bug Fixes

  Fixed multiple circles being drawn in radius search.

  HTML characters will now be properly decoded in agent and office names on listing details in react templates.
• Map search bug
  Fixed issues loading full listing details in react IDX contexts where only map view data had been prepared.
• Hide Estimated Monthly Payments for (Featured Listing) Rentals
  Legacy mapping for type=’Any’. Loading legacy saved searches for display property type of “any” could result in a failed search when client side filtering was engaged.
• Sq ft display issue
  Updated formatting of lotsize so that sq ft lotsize gets “lot” appended, for clarity
• Linkout nav headers not opening in new tab
  The option to open linkouts in a new tab was being ignored when the link was in a navigation header. This has been fixed.

• Lead assignment glitch
  Agent select form inputs will now properly assign leads to agents even for existing leads, as long as they are currently unassigned.

  Fixed an issue preventing home page react widgets from loading.

  Searches for subdivision with nearby locations on react templates were not properly returning results due to missing query builder code. This has been corrected.
