Planning for My Buying Buddy in your Real Estate Website
Recommended DOCTYPE
Our widgets utilize Javascript libraries and to have them display and for best results, the DOCTYPE needs to reference XHTML 1.0. This is not a mandatory requirement, but we do recommend this.
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
Step 1
The first step is to review all the available widgets and look at examples.
You can then start to think about the layout and design of your key pages - your home page and other landing pages too. See the Library below which will give you basic specifications on all the available widgets.
Step 2
Add the MBB function <script> to every page header.
Step 3
The Third Step (only if you have a multi-page website), is to identify the key pages in your website that need to be specified when the widgets are created.
- A unique page for the main Search form (e.g. www.mysite.com/search.html)
- A unique page for the Search Results widget where the results will be displayed
- A unique page for the Listings Detail widget that will show the details of each property
- A unique page for the Broker / Team Roster (Brokers listings) widget (only if you need this!)
Step 4
The other widgets, such as the Display Widgets (featured Gallery, Featured Slider, Login and Quick Search etc) can all be placed on any page as long as the BuyingBuddy <script> tag is included on that page.
