Using a Dynamic Page Template (Listing and Area Pages)
Dynamic Pages are pages that you can create on your website that pull information from the MLS.
You can utilize a Dynamic Page to create Listing Pages that pull listings with a certain criteria (i.e. Luxury Homes or Farm and Ranch properties) or you can create Area Pages that pull listings from certain areas within your MLS. These are great pages to utilize if you want a user to be able to see certain listings based on criteria or area.
Custom Dynamic Listing Page
To create a Listing Page that will pull listings based on a certain criteria, log in to your agent website and select the Pages option in the black editing bar across the top of the page. This will open up your Page Manager where you will see all of the pages that you or your company have created for your website use.
Select the +New Page button in the upper right hand corner of the Page Manager. This will take you to the next step of picking out your template. To create this Listings Page, you must scroll down to the Dynamic Page Template section and select either Listings Template 1 or Listings Template 2. Once you have your Template selected, press Next. This will then take you to a page where you can start filling in the details about your Listings Page.
The Page Name: This is the name of the page that will appear in the URL. This page name will not be able to be changed so make sure it is something that you are sure of.
The Page Title: This is the title that will appear at the top of the page when a user visits it. This can be changed in the future if needed.
Description: an internal description of what this pages is and contains.
Add Meta Tags: keywords that Google and other search engines use to classify what your page is about
Add to Menu: you have the option of adding this page to a menu (like your homepage menu). Best practice is to have the page already created first before adding it somewhere so someone doesn't accidently click on a page that isn't done yet.
Registration: you can have someone register to see this page.
Once you have all of the Page Details entered on this screen - press the OK button.
This will take you to your page where you can select Edit Page in the upper right hand corner and see all of the areas you can edit.
Be sure to add text and a photo where indicated because these sections will populate for visitors to see. If it is an area that says Optional, it will only be displayed if you have something entered (i.e. Optional YouTube video).
To get only certain types of listings to populate (i.e. Luxury Listings), select the grey edit button over the Listings Feed. This will bring up a screen where you can start to drill down the specifics of the listings that you want to appear on this page. This will make it so that the only listings to appear on this page fit inside the criteria you enter here.
Once you have the criteria set, press the Next button. This will take you to the Layout section where you can indicate how many columns of listings and how many listings per page that you want to display. Once you have this page all set up be sure to press the green Save button in the upper right hand corner.
Your page is now ready to be displayed on your website.
Custom Dynamic Areas Page
Dynamic Area Pagas work a lot like Dynamic Listing Pages but instead of setting criteria for certain listings to show on the page, you designate the area. This is a great page to utilize if you want to focus on a certain area of town that you farm, a certain community, or a certain zip code.
To create a Dynamic Area Page that will pull listings based on a certain criteria, log in to your agent website and select the Pages option in the black editing bar across the top of the page. This will open up your Page Manager where you will see all of the pages that you or your company have created for your website use.
Select the +New Page button in the upper right hand corner of the Page Manager. This will take you to the next step of picking out your template. To create this Areas Page, you must scroll down to the Dynamic Page Template section and select either Area Template 1 or Area Template 2. Once you have your Template selected, press Next. This will then take you to a page where you can start filling in the details about your Areas Page.
The Page Name: This is the name of the page that will appear in the URL. This page name will not be able to be changed so make sure it is something that you are sure of.
The Page Title: This is the title that will appear at the top of the page when a user visits it. This can be changed in the future if needed.
Description: an internal description of what this pages is and contains.
Add Meta Tags: keywords that Google and other search engines use to classify what your page is about

Be sure to add text and a photo where indicated because these sections will populate for visitors to see. If it is an area that says Optional, it will only be displayed if you have something entered (i.e. Optional YouTube video).
To set the Area for the page, select the grey dot on the listings feed. A window will pop open where you can set your criteria by area and further filter down your listing results below.
Once you have your criteria and area set, press the OK button and the listings that match what you set in that screen will now appear on the page.
Be sure to press the green Save button when the page is completed.
Your page is now ready to be displayed on your website.
