Hey Darrel, so i want to Make a Portuguese real estate website, so 2 questions, i want to translate the website because its in english so i have to change everyting or i can install a plugin that can translate the website, and the second question when the people go the site i want them to see the portuguese site and then if they want change to the english translation, is that a option to change the language when they go on the website?
Hey! You can use a plugin like GTranslate or TranslatePress to translate your real estate website without manually changing everything. For the second question, yes! You can set Portuguese as the default language and let users switch to English with a language switcher on the site. Check out my ua-cam.com/video/V3cu9TOQKRI/v-deo.htmlsi=2XR46syuitvcXFfH for more details! Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Can a property added by a user with a seller or buyer role can be published automatically instead be pending? Can I make it automatic for the ones who pay membership? Almost like a SAAS
Hi Darell! Thank you for this tutorial. I just tried your demo website on my phone and noticed that horizontal scrolling is allowed, which I really dislike on mobile websites. Is there a way to prevent this?
Great video! So, with regard to Google Maps, you have various mapping choices disable or enable (2:52:52), then you only go to Maps JavaScript API and I can't tell if you want us to disable or enable it from what you state, you state it is enabled, then your going to disable, then enable. What do we do with all the other maps choices in this same area? Two other issues: when I try to change the location on the search bar to geo location then go check it live on the website, I type two letters of a city and it shows an error. Last, when I go to property details to add the map, it states there is a Java error, so the map will not show on the listings, but the button to "see on Google Maps" works when I click on that.
Hey! For Google Maps, make sure Maps JavaScript API is enabled, along with Geocoding API and Places API, as they’re essential for location searches and displaying maps. For the geolocation issue, ensure your API key has billing enabled and correct restrictions set. The Java error might be due to a theme or plugin conflict-try clearing your cache or disabling other plugins to troubleshoot. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hello Darrel, thank you for your work and time! I have incorporate the Google Maps but the space for the map is blank. The key is unrestricted like in your video. I don't remember being asked to add a credit card, but probably that is not the problem. Have you encountered something like this and how would I fix this? Thank you bunches !!!
Hey! In the Houzez theme, a blank Google Map usually means an issue with the API key. Even if it's unrestricted, Google now requires billing to be enabled-so add a payment method in the Google Cloud Console. Also, check if the "Maps JavaScript API" and "Geocoding API" are enabled. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
@@darrelwilson Thank you Darrel, it worked well !!! You have tons of videos and people ask you questions all the time. This is a task for a whole team of help desk support, but you somehow manage it all alone. How do you do that? Vivat!!!
Wordpress hosts the website for you, is there any reason why you are recommending hostinger over wordpress? Especially if wordpress hosting costs are included?
Hi, thank you for this tutorial. I have a question. How can i create two types of accounts, one for users to view listing and the other for agents to post listings. So basically, customer accounts and agent's account. I have seen agent's account on the tutorial but not customers accounts.
Hey! In Houzez, you can enable separate account types by going to Houzez Options > Membership and configuring roles. Use a plugin like User Role Editor to create custom roles if needed. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
Hey! Yes, to use the Houzez theme, you’ll need hosting (like Hostinger), a WordPress installation, and an IDX plugin if you're integrating real estate listings. These tools work together to create a professional real estate website. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
@darrelwilson , May I use the KVCore Plugin when following your instructions on this video? If so, would that still allow me to use the theme's apppearance settings?
Hey darrel does wordpress take some time to make full on changes since ive uploaded properties , and they are not showing when i load them on the phone as the initial image shows but when i actually enter the property i have to physically clikc on the blank photo to view the property , what is this issue from or do i just have to wait until word press resolves this maybe 24 to 48 hours ?
This issue is likely caused by caching. WordPress itself doesn't take time to apply changes, but caching plugins or browser cache might delay updates. Clear your website's cache (through any caching plugin you're using) and also clear the browser cache on your phone. If you're using a CDN, clear that cache as well. You shouldn’t need to wait 24-48 hours for changes to show.
@@darrelwilson Hi darrel, Tried contacting you on your contact page but didn’t get the answer. I would really appreciate if i can get an idea how i would enable the page? Can you let me know baby steps to view my property listing menu item please in the crm menu. Thanks a lot.
Hey Darrel I remember when purchasing this theme it said free 6 months support , what does this mean and how would I access it , and then another thing u said there was a documentation video produced specifically for this them where do i access this ?
Hey! The 6 months of free support means that you can get help directly from the theme developers for any issues or questions you have about the Houzez theme. To access it, log in to the platform where you purchased the theme (like ThemeForest), and you'll find a support option under your downloads. As for the documentation video, it's usually provided by the theme developers and can be accessed either through their official website or within the theme package you downloaded. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey Darrel for the create a listing button displayed on the front of the website , It gives you the option of adding a custom link to it or keeping the same page , Now the create a listing is supposed to take them to the wordpress setup where they just type the details and the property will then be approved in order for it to be uploaded , but now the issue is that firstly it doesnt give u a custom link in order to make this happen and secondly what are the options for this feature really im not sure how i could go about this ?
Hey! For the "Create a Listing" button in the Houzez theme, you typically need to link it to a submission page where users can add property details. If the theme doesn't automatically generate a custom link, you might need to create a new page in WordPress specifically for property submissions and then link the button to that page. You can use a plugin like WP User Frontend to handle the submissions, allowing users to input their property details directly from the frontend. Once submitted, you can set up an approval process before the listings go live. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Thank you so much for a wonderful teaching video. Highly appreciated. I have a question too, if you may kindly answer. When I create and publish an agency as admin, it shows in the agencies instantly. But if i make an agency as a user defined as agency, it doesn't show in agencies. Can you please tell me how to go about resolving this.
Hey! Thanks for the kind words! This issue might be due to the agency submission requiring admin approval. Check the Houzez theme settings under “Membership” or “User Role Settings” to see if user-submitted agencies need manual approval. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
@darrelwilson Thanks a lot for a prompt reply. I will explore those settings and if still can't resolve it, I might require your professional help, provided it is convenient with you. Thanks indeed
Hey! If the "Book Now" and calendar features are missing in your Houzez theme, please ensure you've installed and activated the necessary plugins or extensions that come with the theme to enable these functionalities.
Hi Darrel. This is the first time that I attempted to create my website (for my company). On the For Sale page, I guess I deleted the header. Do I just rebuild it?
Hey! Yes, if you've deleted the header on the For Sale page in Houzez, you can simply rebuild it. Go to your page editor, and use the header options to recreate it as needed. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
Hey! You're right! The MLS/IDX plugin is designed to automatically pull listings into your site, so you don’t have to manually create them. It syncs with your MLS (Multiple Listing Service) and populates your site with live listings directly. If it's not pulling the listings, make sure the plugin is properly connected to your MLS and check its settings. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
This video is great and I keep coming back to it again and again! I was wondering, after some WP and Elementor updates, suddenly my individual listings page (the one you get to after you are on the home page and click on one of the gallery listings properties), is gone! I cannot connect the new properties or even the old ones, to open up once you click on them, I just get a blank page now! I'm in a panic. I deleted all the property listing placeholders to create ours, and now nothing will connect, not to the agents page, either. I have read and watched your video and cannot figure out what the page even is or how to link to it! I was able to create a test listing and then click on it, where it brought me to the empty page and then create a page with Elementor ---but, that means I would have to do this with every single listing I create! I thought there was an actual template for the individual listings page, but I don't see one in Elementor, my templates or pages.
Hey! . Make sure the "Single Property Template" is assigned correctly under Houzez Options > Property Templates. If it's still not working, try regenerating permalinks by going to Settings > Permalinks and clicking "Save Changes." This should reconnect your listings. Let me know how it goes! Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey Darrel I understand what you saying for link user to agent , But does this Require the author SEO which is another yearly subscription to do this ?
Hey! Linking users to agents in the Houzez theme does not require the Author SEO subscription. You can manage user roles and agent connections within the theme’s settings and WordPress user management without needing additional subscriptions. If you’re having trouble, make sure you’ve configured the agent role correctly and check the theme documentation for specific instructions. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey Darrel again, I was wondering how can we add more than 2 prices in one listing, since some of my listings are for Dormitories and they have 2-beded , 3-beded, 4-beded and more rooms and they rent monthly each bed and ofcourse the prices changes. In one house, they have 3 or 4 or even more prices and is there any option to customise the listing to be able to show the prices all in one listing? Thank you so much :)
Hey! Great question! To add multiple prices in one listing with the Houzez theme, you can customize the property details by using the "Property Features" or "Custom Fields" options. Create custom fields for each room type (e.g., 2-bed, 3-bed, etc.) and input the respective prices. This way, all prices can be displayed within a single listing. You might also consider using the "Multi-units / Sub-properties" feature if available, which can list different pricing options within the same property. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hello Darrel, I have been struggling when editing my pages and listings im not sure if this is because I am using a template that I chose from Houzez, it doesnt let me edit with elementor, only the options they give me on the wordpress panels. If the reason is because im using a premade theme, if i revert will i lose the pages ive already made?
hey , Yes, if you switch to a different theme, you may lose some customizations made with Houzez-specific features. However, your content (pages, posts, etc.) should remain intact. It's recommended to create a backup before making major changes, so you can restore your site if needed. Additionally, consider contacting the theme's support team for guidance on editing pages with Elementor or explore alternative customization options within the Houzez theme.
Hey! Yes, you can create neighborhood pages with the Houzez theme. I recommend using the Custom Page Template that comes with the theme, allowing you to highlight specific neighborhoods effectively. You can also use the Single Property Template to showcase properties within each neighborhood. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
after buying or renting can user see their purchased properties in dashboard,, and can admin set capabilities of options in dashboard for each role..? i didn't find these options,
Hey! Yes, users can see their purchased or rented properties in their dashboard with the Houzez theme. For admin capabilities, you can control user roles and permissions by using a role management plugin like "User Role Editor" to set custom options for each role. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
depending on the section you're editing (e.g., "For Sale" or "Featured"). It’s usually visible on the frontend as a badge or tag near the property image or title.
The Houzez theme is not directly compatible with the DIVI plugin version. However, you can achieve integration by using DIVI Builder alongside Houzez, but it might require some customization. Alternatively, you can explore other real estate themes that are explicitly designed to work seamlessly with DIVI, such as DiviEstate or Divi RealEstate. These options offer smoother integration and better compatibility with the DIVI plugin. Always ensure to check compatibility and test thoroughly before implementing any theme/plugin combination.
Hi darrel so im also trying to build a debt collection services website , and Im not sure what theme to use , can u please reccomend me something , or a video perhaps , since envato has finance stuff but im not exactly sure what one ?
Hey! For a debt collection services website, you could use a professional and clean theme like Consulting or Exponent-both offer finance-focused designs. If you’re looking for a video guide, Darrel’s tutorials cover various themes like Houzez, but for financial services, these themes might suit better. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
hey Darrel , do you know any wordpress theme provider that has themes for real estate like you use but also include a admin dashboard for the owner of the site? so he can add delete or update properties? (not /wp-admin)
Hey! For real estate themes with a front-end admin dashboard, check out RealHomes or MyHome on ThemeForest. Both offer intuitive dashboards where the site owner can manage properties without going to /wp-admin. Hope this helps!
Hi again Darrel, sorry to bother you with another question, but do you know why changes of the section Property Detail do not apply when i do them in the Theme Options? Not style, layout manager etc. working Thanks in advance!
Hey! No problem at all. If changes to the Property Detail section in the Theme Options aren't applying, try these steps: 1. Clear your website and browser cache. 2. Ensure you save the changes properly after making adjustments. 3. Check for any plugin conflicts by temporarily deactivating other plugins. 4. Verify that you’re customizing the correct template or page. If the issue persists, consider reaching out to Houzez support for further assistance.
Hi darrel for some reason when uploading new properties , it loads the incorrect photos , and in some cases the correct one for the appearance and the incorrect one for when u click on the property to view , what is this caused from and how do i fix this ?
Hey! It sounds like a caching issue or a problem with the media library. First, clear your website cache and browser cache. Then, go to your WordPress dashboard, check the media library, and make sure the correct images are attached to the listings. If the problem persists, try regenerating thumbnails using a plugin like "Regenerate Thumbnails." Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey! To arrange agents in a specific order with the Houzez theme, you can use the built-in sorting options or drag-and-drop functionality if available in the theme’s settings. Check the "Agents" section in the Houzez theme options or page builder to manually adjust the order. If there’s no option, you might need to use custom code or a plugin that allows for sorting posts or custom post types. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey! A child theme is necessary if you plan to customize your theme’s code; it prevents updates from overriding your changes. If you're just using the theme as-is, you don’t need one. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey Darrel, Thank you for this fantastic video. I am building a real estate directory website in Belgium. The payment method stripe is not broadly known in Belgium. Can I make changes and translations to the checkout page? (For example: Can I change the word Stripe into Credit Card). Also 'make featured' isn't Dutch. I changed the word "featured" to "Top" throughout the website. Can I change this on the checkout page also to Top?
Hey! Glad you enjoyed the video! Yes, you can customize the checkout page in the Houzez theme to better suit your audience in Belgium. To change terms like "Stripe" to "Credit Card" and "Featured" to "Top," you can use the Loco Translate plugin. This plugin allows you to translate and modify any text strings in the theme. After installing and activating Loco Translate, navigate to the Houzez theme within the plugin, select your desired language (Dutch), and search for the specific terms you want to change. Make your edits, save them, and these changes should reflect across your site, including the checkout page. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
Hello! Is there an option for the Housez theme to change the language ? For example I need the filters to be in French as well as the property details.
Hey! Yes, the Houzez theme supports multiple languages. You can change the language of the filters and property details to French using a plugin like WPML or Polylang. These plugins allow you to translate your site’s content, including theme strings, into different languages. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments.

Hello, thank you for this valuable information. I need to connect the website with Google Analytics Tag Manager, could you tell me how to do it, where can I copy the code? thank you
Hey! To connect your website with Google Analytics via Tag Manager, create a new tag in your Tag Manager account, set it to Google Analytics: GA4 Configuration, and copy the provided container code. Then, paste the code into your site’s header using a plugin like Insert Headers and Footers. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!

Hey darrel , I have an issue when it comes to the listing button , It says I must add a custom link but I want to direct them to a page where they can list a property and then I can approve it , Im not sure how to do this with the theme settings ???
Hey! To set up a listing button for property submissions in the Houzez theme, create a "Submit Property" page using the "Submit Property" template, then add this page to your menu via Appearance > Menus. Ensure in Houzez Options under Membership > Membership Plans that "Free Submission" is enabled, and set Listings > Listings Submission to "Pending Review." Adjust user roles if necessary. This will let users submit properties for your approval.
You can represent projects and associated sample apartments by creating a main project page for each development and linking it to individual listings for the sample apartments. Use categories or tags to group them, and ensure clear navigation between the project overview and detailed apartment pages.
Hey! If the "Create a Listing" option isn't appearing for a logged-in user in the Houzez theme, ensure the user has the correct role assigned (e.g., Agent) and that they have permissions to submit listings. Check the theme settings and make sure you’ve configured user roles properly in the Houzez options. If the issue persists, try clearing the cache or consult the theme's support for further assistance. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
hey darrel do you have a more in-depth video explaining the mls sync and idx integration? i am not looking to reenter my listings individually into my website i would love to be able to import or preferably have the mls in sync
Hey! For MLS sync and IDX integration, check the Houzez theme documentation-they have detailed guides for setting up MLS and IDX connections. Let me know if you need more help! Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey! You generally need to be a licensed realtor or have access through a broker to integrate MLS listings on your site in the US, as MLS data is restricted. However, the Houzez theme supports IDX plugins like IDX Broker to display MLS listings if you have the necessary credentials. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
I installed demo 5 to go through your tutorial but actually want to use demo 27. How do I start fresh with the demo I want without messing everything up and making a disorganized mess?
Hey! To switch from Demo 5 to Demo 27 in the Houzez theme, I recommend resetting your WordPress site first using a plugin like "WP Reset." This way, you can start fresh without leftover data. Once reset, go to the Houzez options and import Demo 27 directly-this will keep everything clean and organized. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hi, I purchased the Houzez - Real Estate WordPress Theme and when put it in it doesnt work and says Unpacking the package… Installing the theme… The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet. Theme installation failed. Please Help
Hey! This error usually happens when you try to upload the entire zip file downloaded from the marketplace, which includes extra files like documentation. To fix it, unzip the file you downloaded and look for a specific zip file that contains the theme (usually named "houzez.zip"). Upload this zip file directly in your WordPress dashboard under Appearance > Themes > Add New. This should solve the issue and allow you to install the theme correctly. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
I am running a real estate website but not have any property listed there.... can you please tell me from where i can import property listings in my website so that it looks full of properties for buy sale or lease...
Hey ! You can import property listings into your Houzez website manually through WordPress, use CSV import, or explore third-party plugins like WP All Import.
Hey Darrel, thanks for the video it has been really helpful. Quick question, when i login as a user i created as an agent or even as my admin user, I do not have the Create A Listing option. I only get Board, Insight, Properties, Saved Searches, My Profile and Log Out. Any idea why that is? Thanks again.
Hey! Thanks for the feedback on the video. For the issue with the "Create A Listing" option not appearing, it's likely a permissions or settings issue within the Houzez theme. Make sure that the user roles have the correct permissions to create listings. You might need to check the Houzez theme options or user role settings to ensure agents and admins are granted the ability to add listings. If that doesn't resolve it, double-check if there are any additional settings or plugins that might be interfering with the listing creation feature. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
@@darrelwilson Thanks for your prompt response. I have checked everything with a fine toothed comb and don't see any setting. I'm just going to export what I have done, wipe everything out and start from scratch, on the bright-side, it'll be good practice! Thanks again. Keep up the good work!
@@darrelwilson ok i'm an idiot! you explained my problem at the 1:21:14 mark of your video! I just don't know why Houzez wouldn't include that page automatically. Well at least that mystery is solved. Anyways, I found something else interesting that I wanted to ask you. When you create a listing at the 1:42:27 mark, you enter 3000 sqft. However, on the property details page (mark 1:53:22 and 1:54:05) the icon shows as Sq Meters. I am having the same issue, it's a bit misleading. Do you know if there's a way around that? Thanks again.
Darrel thank you so much! Great video. I'm having problems with theme options specifically when i have demo 35 imported. Theme options seem to work correctly before the import and then fail to make any changes after I have demo 35 imported. Everything is up to date. I'm wondering if you can replicate this issue because at this point I don't know if I've done something wrong or it's just a bug with demo 35.
I just tried with demo 5 as well. It also doesn't work. I'm just trying to change the header as a test and it doesn't but like I said it works before I import a demo so somethiing changes after the fact. If you have an ideas please let me know.
Nevermind! The first time I simply imported demo 5 after having imported demo 35. The error persisted. But if I do WP reset like you showed in the video and import demo 5 by itself it works just fine. So there is something wrong with demo 35.
hey , check for any plugin conflicts by deactivating all non-essential plugins and then reactivate them one by one. If the issue persists, try re-importing the demo or contact Houzez support for assistance with Demo 35.
Hey, the Houzez theme license typically allows you to use it on one website per purchase. If you want to use it on multiple websites, you would need to buy additional licenses. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.

Great Tutorial! Just one question - Can you add another tab to the search bar on the home page? At present it has ALL STATUS - FOR SALE - FOR RENT How do I add another tab? Many Thanks!
In Houzez, you can add another tab to the search bar on the home page by modifying the theme's code. You'll need to access the theme files, locate the section responsible for the search bar, and add the additional tab manually. This typically involves editing PHP and/or JavaScript files within the theme. If you're not comfortable with coding, you may want to consult with a developer or the theme's support team for assistance with this customization.
Hello! I am grateful to find you. It is an amazing tutorial I am following along it was going great until now but recently whenever i make any changes it does not update on the website. Please let me know why it not working properly
Hey! I'm glad you're enjoying the tutorial! If your changes aren't updating, try clearing your browser cache and WordPress cache. Also, ensure you have the latest version of your theme and plugins. If the issue persists, check your website's caching settings or contact your hosting provider for further assistance. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments.

Hey Darrel, thank you so much for this tutorial! it was so clear and healpfull. I have a question about the API config, do we have to config the three API, or just only one is ok? Thanks a lot for your feedback.
Hey! Thanks for the kind words! When configuring the API for the Houzez theme, it's generally recommended to set up all three APIs to ensure full functionality and access to all features. However, if you're only using specific features, configuring just the relevant API might be sufficient. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
To set up the contact form so emails go to your desired address, go to your WordPress dashboard, and navigate to Contact (if you're using a plugin like Contact Form 7).

Hi, first id like to thank you for making such an in depth informative tutorial. id like to ask if there is a way to make custom property cards or is there a way to edit existing ones using the free version of elementor? thank you very much
Hey! Thanks for the kind words! To make custom property cards or edit existing ones in the Houzez theme using the free version of Elementor, you can use Elementor's "Template" feature. Create a new template for your property card, then use Elementor widgets to design it as you like. Finally, apply this template to your property listings.

This issue might occur if the measurement units aren't properly configured in the theme settings. Double-check the settings under Houzez Options > Properties > Measurement Units to ensure it's set to square feet. If the issue persists, it could be a bug-updating to the latest version of the theme should resolve it.

Hi Darrel Why isnt my search numbers coming out correct when I place the amounts I want in the options given to the customers by the search options folder
Hey! If your search numbers aren't showing up correctly when you set specific amounts in the search options for Houzez, it might be due to misconfigured search parameters or an issue with the theme's settings. First, double-check that your search fields are set up properly in the "Search Builder" and that they match the data in your property listings. Also, ensure that your currency and number formats are consistent across the site. If the problem persists, try clearing your site cache or updating the theme to the latest version. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.

Hey Darrel, I've set up the agents and assigned properties under their names. Now, I want to assign them user roles so they can upload content themselves. I've already created the agent pages, but I'm not sure how to link them with user roles. Could you guide me on how to assign a specific user to a specific agent?
Hey! To link agents with user roles so they can upload content, first make sure you've created a user account for each agent. Then, assign the "Agent" role to each user under Users > All Users by editing their profile. Next, go to the agent page you created and ensure it’s linked to the correct user by selecting them under the “Author” or “Agent” field (depending on your theme or plugin). This will connect the agent's profile to their user account, allowing them to manage their properties directly. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.

hi! is it posible to link agents created from the theme to users account so they can also login automaticaly and create properties they manage in the same account and agents details?
Hey! Yes, it's possible to link agents to user accounts in the Houzez theme. You can set it up so that agents log in, manage their properties, and have their details synced with their user accounts. This ensures a seamless experience for agents to create and manage listings from the same account. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
Hey! To set up packages where agents can choose to buy 5, 10, or 20 listings in the Houzez theme, you'll want to use the theme's built-in membership and packages feature. Go to Houzez Options > Membership and create custom packages, specifying the number of listings each package includes. Then, assign these packages to agents. This way, agents can purchase the package that best suits their needs. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
I downloaded the template as instructed into WordPress. When I go in to edit on WordPress, and Elementor, it does not show any images or the actual theme. Just all the writing that is left aligned. Am I missing a setting?

Then, go to Tools > Regenerate CSS & Data in Elementor, and clear your browser and plugin caches. If the issue persists, temporarily switch to a default theme like Twenty Twenty-One. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments!
Hi Darrel, great video. I'm a Real Estate Agent in Canada and I noticed that Hostinger doesn't have a Canadian option. Would it still be a good option for me since I live/trade in Canada? Should I try to find a different Hosting Option in Canada. If yes, do you have any video's on How to make a real estate website with wordpress with them?
Nope, you can select north USA data centers. It really doesnt matter too much where servers are these days because of CDNS. As long as your website is optimized your customers will have a fast loading experience. In case you wanted to learn about CDNS hostinger has a quick article here support.hostinger.com/en/articles/7935917-hostinger-cdn-website-optimization
hey Yes, you can display properties on specific pages based on their categories or statuses. To display properties for sale on the For Sale page, you can use shortcodes or widgets built into the theme that allow you to filter and display properties based on different criteria. You can customize the display settings in the template's admin panel to achieve this. If you need more detailed instructions, you can get further assistance through Houzez's documentation or support team.
Hey, can we design the particular property page on our own with Elementor. I mean we use the meta data of theme but design the layout on our own. If yes please guide how?
Hey! Yes, you can design the property page with Elementor using the meta data from the theme. Use Elementor's dynamic content feature to pull in meta data. Feel free to ask more questions!
How do I also clear space on this houzez theme since ive uploaded alot of photos for properties and only want to clear the media upload section of photos of the houses i have uploaded since theyve take up loads of space
Hey! Go to the Media Library, switch to list view, and filter by "Unattached" to find photos not linked to any property. You can delete those to free up space. Just be careful not to remove images still in use! Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey Darrel Im not sure how this works you said , " You can use a plugin like WP User Frontend to handle the submissions, allowing users to input their property details directly from the frontend. Once submitted, you can set up an approval process before the listings go live." Is there perhaps a tutorial or could u explain how to get this done step by step guiding me
Hey! To get users to submit properties via the frontend using WP User Frontend, start by installing and activating the plugin. Next, create a form by going to WP User Frontend > Post Forms > Add New and customize the form fields to match the property details you need. Then, embed this form on a page using the shortcode provided. To set up the approval process, go to Settings > General in WP User Frontend and enable the "Post Status" to be set as "Pending Review." This ensures all submissions are reviewed before going live. Feel free to check out a tutorial for more detailed guidance!
Hey ! If you can't find the options to edit the contact and review forms in the Houzez theme settings, you can use custom CSS to make the changes. Look for the form's class or ID in the theme and apply your styling accordingly.
Darrel I dont know what im doing wrong , Please assist on the Link user to agent Ive went in and I cant find the link option where exactly is this located , the header footer , where ???
Hey! To link a user to an agent in the Houzez theme, go to the WordPress dashboard and navigate to Users > All Users. Edit the user profile and ensure their role is set to "Agent." In the Houzez settings or theme options, make sure that the agent post type is configured correctly. You should also check Houzez > Settings > Agent Settings to ensure that the agent roles and capabilities are correctly set up. If you still can't find the link option, try checking the Houzez documentation or support forums for further guidance. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey! Thanks for watching! The initial setup depends on hosting and plugins-typically $50-$100 for hosting (like Hostinger) and $69+ for a theme like Houzez. Month-to-month costs include hosting (~$5-$10) and any optional IDX plugin fees (~$40+). Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey Darrel I saw your comment just now , How do i make sure my theme is up to date i bought the houzez theme through your link would this mean the theme is up to date automatically , if not how do i update it
Hey! To ensure your Houzez theme is up to date, check the theme's update section in your WordPress dashboard under "Appearance" > "Themes" and see if there’s an update available. If you purchased it through my link, you should have access to updates, but you may need to manually check for them. You can update the theme directly from the dashboard or download the latest version from your theme provider and upload it via the "Add New" theme option. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey! The main difference between the licenses for the Houzez theme typically includes the number of sites you can use it on and the level of support. The regular license is for one site with 6 months of support, while extended licenses might cover multiple sites and extended support. Feel free to ask more questions!
This issue may occur due to caching or incorrect image metadata. Try clearing your site's cache, reordering the photos manually again, and ensure that each image has unique metadata. You can also disable image lazy loading to see if that helps.
Hey! If you’re having trouble finding the linked user field in the Houzez theme, I’d recommend reaching out to Houzez theme support directly. They can provide the specific guidance you need and any additional resources. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey! If you can't find the option to edit CRM fields directly in the Houzez theme options, you can customize them using custom code. This allows you to control which fields or menus your customers and agents can see. If you need help with the custom code, you might want to consult a developer. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey! Yes, when you purchase the Houzez theme, it comes with all the features shown in the demo, including templates, design elements, and functionality. You just need to import the demo content after installation. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
Yes, in Houzez, you can customize the CRM (Customer Relationship Management) section by adapting the forms to make them less cumbersome. To do this, you can modify the fields displayed in the forms, reorganize their layout, or even create customized forms tailored to your needs. In addition, you can use options in the theme settings or via custom CSS style sheets to further refine the appearance and functionality of the CRM interface.

hey , you can customize the search results page in the Houzez theme by adding custom CSS to achieve the desired changes. If you can't customize it with Elementor, try adding CSS directly in your theme's Customizer or using a custom CSS plugin. Don't hesitate to contact the support theme if you need any help!
Hey darrel its still not giving me the option for the agent to upload a property when they have logged in, I have enabled the free submission and tested it out but i dont see the option, Can u please guide me step by step on what to do , your feedback is highly appreciated
Hey! If agents can't upload properties, first ensure they have the “Agent” role. Then, double-check that "Free Submission" is enabled and that the "Submit Property" page is properly set up and linked in your menu. Clear your cache and test again. If it's still not working, check the theme or plugin documentation for any additional steps. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
@@darrelwilson So the free submission is fine yes , But not I dont understand what you mean ensure if they have the agent role , where exactly to i navigate this and what exactly do i change it to in order for it to function , and then lastly where exactly do i set up this submit property page because if i go to new pages theres no template for this , and secondly why would i need to set this page up if my agents are going to need to upload their properties on the automatic wordpress add property setup
Hi Darrel, Great video! Quick questions. Is it possible to set it up so visitors can: Save their searches Receive new property email alerts Get price change alerts Save multiple searches View saved property info View saved property photos Save favorite properties Thanks for your help!
Hey! Yes, the Houzez theme supports these features. You can enable them in the theme options under "Membership" and "User Dashboard" settings. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments.
What does it mean when photography services offer a "Free listing website" on their packages, ive always wonder exactly how to do this or how to offer this in my media photo business.
Hey! A "Free listing website" usually means that the photography service provides a free or included website where you can list and showcase your services. To offer this in your media photo business, you could create a simple listing site using themes or plugins designed for directories or portfolios, and offer it as part of your service packages.

Why the Theme Don't Show the Login and Register Pages, Add Listing Button, Why you don't show how to Add Subscriptions and manage them in the Website !! is the theme really support that?
Hey! The Houzez theme does support login/register pages, an "Add Listing" button, and subscription management, but these features might require additional configuration or plugins. Make sure you've set up the theme options and installed any necessary plugins for full functionality. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hi Darrel you were right to recommend this template, i customized for a client and the result was amazing, thank you for this tutorial i would take years to share all this valueble information in just one video. I would like to ask if it is possible to have different dashboard features/layout design to each user type (admin, agent, agency & subscriber)?
Hey! Absolutely, with the Houzez theme, you can customize dashboard features and layouts for different user types like admin, agent, agency, and subscriber. You can achieve this by using user role management plugins such as User Role Editor or Members to define and control permissions for each role. Additionally, Houzez supports conditional content display, allowing you to show or hide specific dashboard elements based on the user's role. For more advanced customizations, you might consider adding custom code or using page builders compatible with Houzez to design unique layouts for each user type. This way, each group gets a tailored dashboard experience that fits their needs perfectly. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hi, great video. Im new at this my question would be do you have to pay for every integration. wordpress, hostinger and elementor? That the biggest part im confused on.
Hey! Thanks! No, you don’t have to pay for every integration. WordPress is free, but hosting (like Hostinger) and premium plugins or builders (like Elementor Pro) may have costs. You can start with free versions of many tools and upgrade as needed. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
Hey Darrel I saw your comment for the Link user to agent role , Now I have selected their role as an agent , and I still cant link them because Im not sure if i have to upgrade to this SEO thing which is included in the houzez theme , And Even though Ive logged in from a different google account to test , It still doesnt give me the option to add a property , How do i fix this , I also dont exactly see the link agent to user role , please be more specific as ive went and looked on edit user and edit agent i cant find this ???
Hey! To link users to the agent role in Houzez, go to Users > All Users assign the "Agent" role, then edit the agent under Houzez > Agents and select the user in the "Linked User" field. Ensure agents can submit properties by checking settings under Houzez > Membership Options. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.

Hey! You can use a plugin like GTranslate or TranslatePress to translate your real estate website without manually changing everything. For the second question, yes! You can set Portuguese as the default language and let users switch to English with a language switcher on the site.

Hi Darell! Thank you for this tutorial. I just tried your demo website on my phone and noticed that horizontal scrolling is allowed, which I really dislike on mobile websites. Is there a way to prevent this?
Hey! To prevent horizontal scrolling in the Houzez theme, you can add custom CSS to your site.
Great video! So, with regard to Google Maps, you have various mapping choices disable or enable (2:52:52), then you only go to Maps JavaScript API and I can't tell if you want us to disable or enable it from what you state, you state it is enabled, then your going to disable, then enable. What do we do with all the other maps choices in this same area? Two other issues: when I try to change the location on the search bar to geo location then go check it live on the website, I type two letters of a city and it shows an error. Last, when I go to property details to add the map, it states there is a Java error, so the map will not show on the listings, but the button to "see on Google Maps" works when I click on that.
Hey! For Google Maps, make sure Maps JavaScript API is enabled, along with Geocoding API and Places API, as they’re essential for location searches and displaying maps. For the geolocation issue, ensure your API key has billing enabled and correct restrictions set. The Java error might be due to a theme or plugin conflict-try clearing your cache or disabling other plugins to troubleshoot.
Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
@@darrelwilson Thank you! It is working now, great advice!
Hello Darrel, thank you for your work and time! I have incorporate the Google Maps but the space for the map is blank. The key is unrestricted like in your video. I don't remember being asked to add a credit card, but probably that is not the problem. Have you encountered something like this and how would I fix this? Thank you bunches !!!
Hey! In the Houzez theme, a blank Google Map usually means an issue with the API key. Even if it's unrestricted, Google now requires billing to be enabled-so add a payment method in the Google Cloud Console. Also, check if the "Maps JavaScript API" and "Geocoding API" are enabled. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
@@darrelwilson Thank you Darrel, it worked well !!! You have tons of videos and people ask you questions all the time. This is a task for a whole team of help desk support, but you somehow manage it all alone. How do you do that? Vivat!!!
Wordpress hosts the website for you, is there any reason why you are recommending hostinger over wordpress? Especially if wordpress hosting costs are included?
Hostinger offers more control, better performance, and lower costs compared to WordPress.com hosting.
Hi, thank you for this tutorial. I have a question. How can i create two types of accounts, one for users to view listing and the other for agents to post listings. So basically, customer accounts and agent's account. I have seen agent's account on the tutorial but not customers accounts.
Also, after building the site, is it compulsory to have MLS and IDX integrated? Or you can do without.
Hey! In Houzez, you can enable separate account types by going to Houzez Options > Membership and configuring roles. Use a plugin like User Role Editor to create custom roles if needed. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
Just to be clear, we need to purchase hostinger, idx and Wordpress?
Hey! Yes, to use the Houzez theme, you’ll need hosting (like Hostinger), a WordPress installation, and an IDX plugin if you're integrating real estate listings. These tools work together to create a professional real estate website.
Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
@darrelwilson , May I use the KVCore Plugin when following your instructions on this video? If so, would that still allow me to use the theme's apppearance settings?

Hey darrel does wordpress take some time to make full on changes since ive uploaded properties , and they are not showing when i load them on the phone as the initial image shows but when i actually enter the property i have to physically clikc on the blank photo to view the property , what is this issue from or do i just have to wait until word press resolves this maybe 24 to 48 hours ?
This issue is likely caused by caching. WordPress itself doesn't take time to apply changes, but caching plugins or browser cache might delay updates. Clear your website's cache (through any caching plugin you're using) and also clear the browser cache on your phone. If you're using a CDN, clear that cache as well. You shouldn’t need to wait 24-48 hours for changes to show.
on 2:30:21 you menntion create listing but i do not see this option being shown to me. Why is that?
You either need to add the option to allow listings. Also, you need to enable to page in order for the listings to be shown.

Hey Darrel I remember when purchasing this theme it said free 6 months support , what does this mean and how would I access it , and then another thing u said there was a documentation video produced specifically for this them where do i access this ?
Hey! The 6 months of free support means that you can get help directly from the theme developers for any issues or questions you have about the Houzez theme. To access it, log in to the platform where you purchased the theme (like ThemeForest), and you'll find a support option under your downloads. As for the documentation video, it's usually provided by the theme developers and can be accessed either through their official website or within the theme package you downloaded. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey Darrel for the create a listing button displayed on the front of the website , It gives you the option of adding a custom link to it or keeping the same page , Now the create a listing is supposed to take them to the wordpress setup where they just type the details and the property will then be approved in order for it to be uploaded , but now the issue is that firstly it doesnt give u a custom link in order to make this happen and secondly what are the options for this feature really im not sure how i could go about this ?
Hey! For the "Create a Listing" button in the Houzez theme, you typically need to link it to a submission page where users can add property details. If the theme doesn't automatically generate a custom link, you might need to create a new page in WordPress specifically for property submissions and then link the button to that page. You can use a plugin like WP User Frontend to handle the submissions, allowing users to input their property details directly from the frontend. Once submitted, you can set up an approval process before the listings go live.
Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Please my add new property page does not display on the CRM. I can see the demo properties but I cannot not add my own. Please help
hey , try clearing browser cache, and checking for conflicts with other plugins. If issues persist, contact theme support for help.
Thank you so much for a wonderful teaching video. Highly appreciated. I have a question too, if you may kindly answer. When I create and publish an agency as admin, it shows in the agencies instantly. But if i make an agency as a user defined as agency, it doesn't show in agencies. Can you please tell me how to go about resolving this.
Hey! Thanks for the kind words! This issue might be due to the agency submission requiring admin approval. Check the Houzez theme settings under “Membership” or “User Role Settings” to see if user-submitted agencies need manual approval.
Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
@darrelwilson Thanks a lot for a prompt reply. I will explore those settings and if still can't resolve it, I might require your professional help, provided it is convenient with you. Thanks indeed

I thought the point of having the MLS/IDX plug-in is so that you don’t have to manually create the listings. is this not the case?
Hey! You're right! The MLS/IDX plugin is designed to automatically pull listings into your site, so you don’t have to manually create them. It syncs with your MLS (Multiple Listing Service) and populates your site with live listings directly. If it's not pulling the listings, make sure the plugin is properly connected to your MLS and check its settings.

This video is great and I keep coming back to it again and again! I was wondering, after some WP and Elementor updates, suddenly my individual listings page (the one you get to after you are on the home page and click on one of the gallery listings properties), is gone! I cannot connect the new properties or even the old ones, to open up once you click on them, I just get a blank page now! I'm in a panic. I deleted all the property listing placeholders to create ours, and now nothing will connect, not to the agents page, either. I have read and watched your video and cannot figure out what the page even is or how to link to it! I was able to create a test listing and then click on it, where it brought me to the empty page and then create a page with Elementor ---but, that means I would have to do this with every single listing I create! I thought there was an actual template for the individual listings page, but I don't see one in Elementor, my templates or pages.
Hey! . Make sure the "Single Property Template" is assigned correctly under Houzez Options > Property Templates. If it's still not working, try regenerating permalinks by going to Settings > Permalinks and clicking "Save Changes." This should reconnect your listings. Let me know how it goes! Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey Darrel I understand what you saying for link user to agent , But does this Require the author SEO which is another yearly subscription to do this ?
Hey! Linking users to agents in the Houzez theme does not require the Author SEO subscription. You can manage user roles and agent connections within the theme’s settings and WordPress user management without needing additional subscriptions. If you’re having trouble, make sure you’ve configured the agent role correctly and check the theme documentation for specific instructions.

Hey Darrel again, I was wondering how can we add more than 2 prices in one listing, since some of my listings are for Dormitories and they have 2-beded , 3-beded, 4-beded and more rooms and they rent monthly each bed and ofcourse the prices changes. In one house, they have 3 or 4 or even more prices and is there any option to customise the listing to be able to show the prices all in one listing?
Thank you so much :)
Hey! Great question! To add multiple prices in one listing with the Houzez theme, you can customize the property details by using the "Property Features" or "Custom Fields" options. Create custom fields for each room type (e.g., 2-bed, 3-bed, etc.) and input the respective prices. This way, all prices can be displayed within a single listing. You might also consider using the "Multi-units / Sub-properties" feature if available, which can list different pricing options within the same property.

Hello Darrel, I have been struggling when editing my pages and listings im not sure if this is because I am using a template that I chose from Houzez, it doesnt let me edit with elementor, only the options they give me on the wordpress panels.
If the reason is because im using a premade theme, if i revert will i lose the pages ive already made?
hey ,
Yes, if you switch to a different theme, you may lose some customizations made with Houzez-specific features. However, your content (pages, posts, etc.) should remain intact. It's recommended to create a backup before making major changes, so you can restore your site if needed. Additionally, consider contacting the theme's support team for guidance on editing pages with Elementor or explore alternative customization options within the Houzez theme.
Can I created neighborhoods pages with Houzez theme? If so, which template do you recommend for it?
Hey! Yes, you can create neighborhood pages with the Houzez theme. I recommend using the Custom Page Template that comes with the theme, allowing you to highlight specific neighborhoods effectively. You can also use the Single Property Template to showcase properties within each neighborhood.

after buying or renting can user see their purchased properties in dashboard,, and can admin set capabilities of options in dashboard for each role..? i didn't find these options,
Hey! Yes, users can see their purchased or rented properties in their dashboard with the Houzez theme. For admin capabilities, you can control user roles and permissions by using a role management plugin like "User Role Editor" to set custom options for each role.
Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
2:06:03 when you change Label... where does it show?
depending on the section you're editing (e.g., "For Sale" or "Featured"). It’s usually visible on the frontend as a badge or tag near the property image or title.
Is the houzez theme compatible with DIVI (plugin version) or is there an alternative what works with DIVI.
The Houzez theme is not directly compatible with the DIVI plugin version. However, you can achieve integration by using DIVI Builder alongside Houzez, but it might require some customization. Alternatively, you can explore other real estate themes that are explicitly designed to work seamlessly with DIVI, such as DiviEstate or Divi RealEstate. These options offer smoother integration and better compatibility with the DIVI plugin. Always ensure to check compatibility and test thoroughly before implementing any theme/plugin combination.
Hi darrel so im also trying to build a debt collection services website , and Im not sure what theme to use , can u please reccomend me something , or a video perhaps , since envato has finance stuff but im not exactly sure what one ?
Hey! For a debt collection services website, you could use a professional and clean theme like Consulting or Exponent-both offer finance-focused designs. If you’re looking for a video guide, Darrel’s tutorials cover various themes like Houzez, but for financial services, these themes might suit better.

Hi again Darrel, sorry to bother you with another question, but do you know why changes of the section Property Detail do not apply when i do them in the Theme Options? Not style, layout manager etc. working
Thanks in advance!
Hey! No problem at all. If changes to the Property Detail section in the Theme Options aren't applying, try these steps:
1. Clear your website and browser cache.
2. Ensure you save the changes properly after making adjustments.
3. Check for any plugin conflicts by temporarily deactivating other plugins.
4. Verify that you’re customizing the correct template or page.
If the issue persists, consider reaching out to Houzez support for further assistance.
Hi darrel for some reason when uploading new properties , it loads the incorrect photos , and in some cases the correct one for the appearance and the incorrect one for when u click on the property to view , what is this caused from and how do i fix this ?
Hey! It sounds like a caching issue or a problem with the media library. First, clear your website cache and browser cache. Then, go to your WordPress dashboard, check the media library, and make sure the correct images are attached to the listings. If the problem persists, try regenerating thumbnails using a plugin like "Regenerate Thumbnails."
Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey , So when listing the agents out also , How do u allocate them from top to bottom arranging them in the specific order that you want ?
Hey! To arrange agents in a specific order with the Houzez theme, you can use the built-in sorting options or drag-and-drop functionality if available in the theme’s settings. Check the "Agents" section in the Houzez theme options or page builder to manually adjust the order. If there’s no option, you might need to use custom code or a plugin that allows for sorting posts or custom post types. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.

Hello. Thank you very much. I want to ask about the child theme, should we use it or not? Is it necessary or unnecessary?
Hey! A child theme is necessary if you plan to customize your theme’s code; it prevents updates from overriding your changes. If you're just using the theme as-is, you don’t need one. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey Darrel, Thank you for this fantastic video. I am building a real estate directory website in Belgium. The payment method stripe is not broadly known in Belgium. Can I make changes and translations to the checkout page? (For example: Can I change the word Stripe into Credit Card). Also 'make featured' isn't Dutch. I changed the word "featured" to "Top" throughout the website. Can I change this on the checkout page also to Top?
Hey! Glad you enjoyed the video! Yes, you can customize the checkout page in the Houzez theme to better suit your audience in Belgium. To change terms like "Stripe" to "Credit Card" and "Featured" to "Top," you can use the Loco Translate plugin. This plugin allows you to translate and modify any text strings in the theme. After installing and activating Loco Translate, navigate to the Houzez theme within the plugin, select your desired language (Dutch), and search for the specific terms you want to change. Make your edits, save them, and these changes should reflect across your site, including the checkout page. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
@@darrelwilson Thank you! This fixed my problem!
Hello! Is there an option for the Housez theme to change the language ? For example I need the filters to be in French as well as the property details.
Hey!
Yes, the Houzez theme supports multiple languages. You can change the language of the filters and property details to French using a plugin like WPML or Polylang. These plugins allow you to translate your site’s content, including theme strings, into different languages.

Hey darrel , I have an issue when it comes to the listing button , It says I must add a custom link but I want to direct them to a page where they can list a property and then I can approve it , Im not sure how to do this with the theme settings ???
Hey! To set up a listing button for property submissions in the Houzez theme, create a "Submit Property" page using the "Submit Property" template, then add this page to your menu via Appearance > Menus. Ensure in Houzez Options under Membership > Membership Plans that "Free Submission" is enabled, and set Listings > Listings Submission to "Pending Review." Adjust user roles if necessary. This will let users submit properties for your approval.
How can I represent projects (Primary/new development) with associated sample apartments for example?
You can represent projects and associated sample apartments by creating a main project page for each development and linking it to individual listings for the sample apartments. Use categories or tags to group them, and ensure clear navigation between the project overview and detailed apartment pages.
Hey Darrel The create a listing option is also not appearing once a use her logged in also ?
Hey! If the "Create a Listing" option isn't appearing for a logged-in user in the Houzez theme, ensure the user has the correct role assigned (e.g., Agent) and that they have permissions to submit listings. Check the theme settings and make sure you’ve configured user roles properly in the Houzez options. If the issue persists, try clearing the cache or consult the theme's support for further assistance.

hey darrel do you have a more in-depth video explaining the mls sync and idx integration? i am not looking to reenter my listings individually into my website i would love to be able to import or preferably have the mls in sync
Hey! For MLS sync and IDX integration, check the Houzez theme documentation-they have detailed guides for setting up MLS and IDX connections. Let me know if you need more help! Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Do I need to be a realtor to access the mls listings for my website based on the US?
Hey! You generally need to be a licensed realtor or have access through a broker to integrate MLS listings on your site in the US, as MLS data is restricted. However, the Houzez theme supports IDX plugins like IDX Broker to display MLS listings if you have the necessary credentials. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
I installed demo 5 to go through your tutorial but actually want to use demo 27. How do I start fresh with the demo I want without messing everything up and making a disorganized mess?
Hey! To switch from Demo 5 to Demo 27 in the Houzez theme, I recommend resetting your WordPress site first using a plugin like "WP Reset." This way, you can start fresh without leftover data. Once reset, go to the Houzez options and import Demo 27 directly-this will keep everything clean and organized. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hi, I purchased the Houzez - Real Estate WordPress Theme and when put it in it doesnt work and says Unpacking the package…
Installing the theme…
The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.
Theme installation failed.
Please Help
Hey! This error usually happens when you try to upload the entire zip file downloaded from the marketplace, which includes extra files like documentation. To fix it, unzip the file you downloaded and look for a specific zip file that contains the theme (usually named "houzez.zip"). Upload this zip file directly in your WordPress dashboard under Appearance > Themes > Add New. This should solve the issue and allow you to install the theme correctly.

I am running a real estate website but not have any property listed there.... can you please tell me from where i can import property listings in my website so that it looks full of properties for buy sale or lease...
Hey ! You can import property listings into your Houzez website manually through WordPress, use CSV import, or explore third-party plugins like WP All Import.
Hey Darrel, thanks for the video it has been really helpful. Quick question, when i login as a user i created as an agent or even as my admin user, I do not have the Create A Listing option. I only get Board, Insight, Properties, Saved Searches, My Profile and Log Out. Any idea why that is? Thanks again.
Hey! Thanks for the feedback on the video. For the issue with the "Create A Listing" option not appearing, it's likely a permissions or settings issue within the Houzez theme. Make sure that the user roles have the correct permissions to create listings. You might need to check the Houzez theme options or user role settings to ensure agents and admins are granted the ability to add listings. If that doesn't resolve it, double-check if there are any additional settings or plugins that might be interfering with the listing creation feature. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
@@darrelwilson Thanks for your prompt response. I have checked everything with a fine toothed comb and don't see any setting. I'm just going to export what I have done, wipe everything out and start from scratch, on the bright-side, it'll be good practice! Thanks again. Keep up the good work!
@@darrelwilson ok i'm an idiot! you explained my problem at the 1:21:14 mark of your video! I just don't know why Houzez wouldn't include that page automatically. Well at least that mystery is solved. Anyways, I found something else interesting that I wanted to ask you. When you create a listing at the 1:42:27 mark, you enter 3000 sqft. However, on the property details page (mark 1:53:22 and 1:54:05) the icon shows as Sq Meters. I am having the same issue, it's a bit misleading. Do you know if there's a way around that? Thanks again.
Disregard! Found it at 2:18:13. Damn there are tons of options everywhere!!! 🙂
Darrel thank you so much! Great video. I'm having problems with theme options specifically when i have demo 35 imported. Theme options seem to work correctly before the import and then fail to make any changes after I have demo 35 imported. Everything is up to date. I'm wondering if you can replicate this issue because at this point I don't know if I've done something wrong or it's just a bug with demo 35.
I just tried with demo 5 as well. It also doesn't work. I'm just trying to change the header as a test and it doesn't but like I said it works before I import a demo so somethiing changes after the fact. If you have an ideas please let me know.
Nevermind! The first time I simply imported demo 5 after having imported demo 35. The error persisted. But if I do WP reset like you showed in the video and import demo 5 by itself it works just fine. So there is something wrong with demo 35.
hey , check for any plugin conflicts by deactivating all non-essential plugins and then reactivate them one by one. If the issue persists, try re-importing the demo or contact Houzez support for assistance with Demo 35.
When i buy housez, can I use it as many times as i want? For different websites? Without paying for it again?

How do I add another tab? Many Thanks!
Create new page and then in appearance add this page link, then it will show on the home tab
bro, i cant link my search result page with my search bar, any help?@@HeeAbhishek
In Houzez, you can add another tab to the search bar on the home page by modifying the theme's code. You'll need to access the theme files, locate the section responsible for the search bar, and add the additional tab manually. This typically involves editing PHP and/or JavaScript files within the theme. If you're not comfortable with coding, you may want to consult with a developer or the theme's support team for assistance with this customization.

Hey!
I'm glad you're enjoying the tutorial! If your changes aren't updating, try clearing your browser cache and WordPress cache. Also, ensure you have the latest version of your theme and plugins. If the issue persists, check your website's caching settings or contact your hosting provider for further assistance.

Hey! Thanks for the kind words! When configuring the API for the Houzez theme, it's generally recommended to set up all three APIs to ensure full functionality and access to all features. However, if you're only using specific features, configuring just the relevant API might be sufficient.

Hey Darrel , How do edit our contact us pages so when somebody emails it goes directly into the email ive set for it ?
To set up the contact form so emails go to your desired address, go to your WordPress dashboard, and navigate to Contact (if you're using a plugin like Contact Form 7). Open the form, and in the Mail tab, set the To field with the email address you want the messages to be sent to. Save your changes, and emails will now go directly to that address.
Hi, first id like to thank you for making such an in depth informative tutorial. id like to ask if there is a way to make custom property cards or is there a way to edit existing ones using the free version of elementor? thank you very much
Hey!
Thanks for the kind words! To make custom property cards or edit existing ones in the Houzez theme using the free version of Elementor, you can use Elementor's "Template" feature. Create a new template for your property card, then use Elementor widgets to design it as you like. Finally, apply this template to your property listings.
Feel free to drop your questions in the comments.
why is it showing square meters when you selected square foot? bug? did they fix it??
This issue might occur if the measurement units aren't properly configured in the theme settings. Double-check the settings under Houzez Options > Properties > Measurement Units to ensure it's set to square feet. If the issue persists, it could be a bug-updating to the latest version of the theme should resolve it.

Hi Darrel Why isnt my search numbers coming out correct when I place the amounts I want in the options given to the customers by the search options folder
Hey! If your search numbers aren't showing up correctly when you set specific amounts in the search options for Houzez, it might be due to misconfigured search parameters or an issue with the theme's settings. First, double-check that your search fields are set up properly in the "Search Builder" and that they match the data in your property listings. Also, ensure that your currency and number formats are consistent across the site. If the problem persists, try clearing your site cache or updating the theme to the latest version. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hi Daren, I encountered a problem with the advanced search. Every time I perform a search, it keeps redirecting me to the homepage. Please help.

Hey Darrel, I've set up the agents and assigned properties under their names. Now, I want to assign them user roles so they can upload content themselves. I've already created the agent pages, but I'm not sure how to link them with user roles. Could you guide me on how to assign a specific user to a specific agent?
Hey!
To link agents with user roles so they can upload content, first make sure you've created a user account for each agent. Then, assign the "Agent" role to each user under Users > All Users by editing their profile. Next, go to the agent page you created and ensure it’s linked to the correct user by selecting them under the “Author” or “Agent” field (depending on your theme or plugin). This will connect the agent's profile to their user account, allowing them to manage their properties directly.

hi! is it posible to link agents created from the theme to users account so they can also login automaticaly and create properties they manage in the same account and agents details?
Hey! Yes, it's possible to link agents to user accounts in the Houzez theme. You can set it up so that agents log in, manage their properties, and have their details synced with their user accounts.

Hey! To set up packages where agents can choose to buy 5, 10, or 20 listings in the Houzez theme, you'll want to use the theme's built-in membership and packages feature. Go to Houzez Options > Membership and create custom packages, specifying the number of listings each package includes. Then, assign these packages to agents. This way, agents can purchase the package that best suits their needs.

Is it possible to display the property on a specific page, for example, for sale on the For Sale page?
hey Yes, you can display properties on specific pages based on their categories or statuses. To display properties for sale on the For Sale page, you can use shortcodes or widgets built into the theme that allow you to filter and display properties based on different criteria. You can customize the display settings in the template's admin panel to achieve this. If you need more detailed instructions, you can get further assistance through Houzez's documentation or support team.
Hey, can we design the particular property page on our own with Elementor. I mean we use the meta data of theme but design the layout on our own. If yes please guide how?

Hey Darrel Im not sure how this works you said , " You can use a plugin like WP User Frontend to handle the submissions, allowing users to input their property details directly from the frontend. Once submitted, you can set up an approval process before the listings go live."
Is there perhaps a tutorial or could u explain how to get this done step by step guiding me
Hey! To get users to submit properties via the frontend using WP User Frontend, start by installing and activating the plugin. Next, create a form by going to WP User Frontend > Post Forms > Add New and customize the form fields to match the property details you need. Then, embed this form on a page using the shortcode provided. To set up the approval process, go to Settings > General in WP User Frontend and enable the "Post Status" to be set as "Pending Review." This ensures all submissions are reviewed before going live.
Feel free to check out a tutorial for more detailed guidance!
Hi Darrel, how would I go about editing the contact and review forms on the properties?

If you can't find the options to edit the contact and review forms in the Houzez theme settings, you can use custom CSS to make the changes. Look for the form's class or ID in the theme and apply your styling accordingly.
Darrel I dont know what im doing wrong , Please assist on the Link user to agent Ive went in and I cant find the link option where exactly is this located , the header footer , where ???
Hey! To link a user to an agent in the Houzez theme, go to the WordPress dashboard and navigate to Users > All Users. Edit the user profile and ensure their role is set to "Agent." In the Houzez settings or theme options, make sure that the agent post type is configured correctly. You should also check Houzez > Settings > Agent Settings to ensure that the agent roles and capabilities are correctly set up. If you still can't find the link option, try checking the Houzez documentation or support forums for further guidance. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Appreciate you for putting this out here. What is the total cost for the initial setup? and month to month?
Hey! Thanks for watching! The initial setup depends on hosting and plugins-typically $50-$100 for hosting (like Hostinger) and $69+ for a theme like Houzez. Month-to-month costs include hosting (~$5-$10) and any optional IDX plugin fees (~$40+).

To do this, you can modify the fields displayed in the forms, reorganize their layout, or even create customized forms tailored to your needs. In addition, you can use options in the theme settings or via custom CSS style sheets to further refine the appearance and functionality of the CRM interface.

What does it mean when photography services offer a "Free listing website" on their packages, ive always wonder exactly how to do this or how to offer this in my media photo business.

To offer this in your media photo business, you could create a simple listing site using themes or plugins designed for directories or portfolios, and offer it as part of your service packages.

Hi Darrel you were right to recommend this template, i customized for a client and the result was amazing, thank you for this tutorial i would take years to share all this valueble information in just one video. I would like to ask if it is possible to have different dashboard features/layout design to each user type (admin, agent, agency & subscriber)?
Hey! Absolutely, with the Houzez theme, you can customize dashboard features and layouts for different user types like admin, agent, agency, and subscriber. You can achieve this by using user role management plugins such as User Role Editor or Members to define and control permissions for each role. Additionally, Houzez supports conditional content display, allowing you to show or hide specific dashboard elements based on the user's role. For more advanced customizations, you might consider adding custom code or using page builders compatible with Houzez to design unique layouts for each user type.

Hi, great video. Im new at this my question would be do you have to pay for every integration. wordpress, hostinger and elementor? That the biggest part im confused on.
Hey! Thanks! No, you don’t have to pay for every integration. WordPress is free, but hosting (like Hostinger) and premium plugins or builders (like Elementor Pro) may have costs. You can start with free versions of many tools and upgrade as needed.

Hey Darrel I saw your comment for the Link user to agent role , Now I have selected their role as an agent , and I still cant link them because Im not sure if i have to upgrade to this SEO thing which is included in the houzez theme , And Even though Ive logged in from a different google account to test , It still doesnt give me the option to add a property , How do i fix this , I also dont exactly see the link agent to user role , please be more specific as ive went and looked on edit user and edit agent i cant find this ???
Hey! To link users to the agent role in Houzez, go to Users > All Users assign the "Agent" role, then edit the agent under Houzez > Agents and select the user in the "Linked User" field. Ensure agents can submit properties by checking settings under Houzez > Membership Options.

but the issue is how do you go from a demo site to a real site, we have picked a theme but it only stays as a demo!! any help much appreciated really struggling with the start but guess we have made a few attempts and need to do a reset but when we ready how do we make demo site to a live site?
hey ,
To transition from a demo site to a live site, you can use a plugin like All-in-One WP Migration and Backup. This plugin allows you to easily migrate your site from one environment to another, making the transition smoother.
here is a full tutorial how to do that : ua-cam.com/video/wbgdQyHi_yg/v-deo.htmlsi=TbQwjsOIxvXkKIFp
