• Google Cloud Storage for IDX Photos
  We’ve moved all of our IDX listing photos from our data center to Google Cloud Storage. This offers the fastest and most reliable hosting service for these static resources and provides excellent scalability for future growth.

• Mobile IDX OFF by Default
  Since all templates are responsive now and the search portion works well on mobile devices – mobile IDX is turned OFF by default for all new accounts going forward. Existing customers will have to manually flip this off if desired – and for most of them who are now using responsive templates, we recommend that they do.

• We’ve Updated Our Geocode Database
  For listings where the MLS does not provide us with lat/lng information for the listings, we have to lookup the location for those addresses. Our geocode database is what we use to do that and it is now current.

Bug Fixes

• Template: Aqua Glimmer
  Homepage layout was broken for Aqua Glimmer.

• Template: Feng Shui Flower
  Fixed an issue where the listing slideshow widget and banner weren’t displaying correctly for template: Feng Shui Flower.

• Template: Translucent Blues Office
  Fixed responsive version to match the appearance of the legacy template more closely.

• Template: Polished Office
  Fixed an issue where listing tiles’ widths were causing them to get cut off.

• Omnibox Search by Zip
  Searches without an explicit type (i.e., entered a zip code, but didn’t select an option from the autocomplete menu) didn’t combine the parts of the query correctly.

• Listing Manager Sorting
  The manage listings tab is now sorted by status by default.

• Modify Commercial Search
  Modify Search in some cases was going to the Quick or Advanced Search page instead of the Commercial Search page.

• IDX: HI-CENTRAL Remap Counties
  The field in the data feed that we were using as “county” actually contained some cities and other non-county entities. The county field has been normalized to a standardized set and the original field in the data feed has been remapped to a custom search field called “Major Areas”. All existing saved searches were updated to use the new values.

• Auto-Response Email Signature Format
  Signatures for some customers in the auto-response emails were being set on a single line instead of multiple lines.

• Edit Blog Post: Tag Error Validation
  Previously if you tried to include a special character in the Blog Tag text field this would cause the blog post to fail silently on save. This has been fixed and now the user is prompted to input proper characters in the Blog Tag text field.

• IDXPro Listing Images
  Images being displayed in the listing details page were too large, causing the images to look distorted.

• Modify search selecting ALL cities
  Fixed an issue where all cities were being selected when a user tried to modify a saved search instead of just the cities that were previously selected.

• Can’t sort sold listings by sold price
  Added “sort by” fields for sold price in the featured listings view.

• MLS Logos in thumbnails
  The MLS Logo was always displaying for some users in their featured listings widgets, even when not required by MLS. Now showing only when required.

• LeadTracker Filter by HouseTrack
  Clients with inactive/expired HouseTrack notifications were being included when searching for Clients with HouseTracks.

• MailChimp Sync Phone Numbers
  Enhanced the Lead Tracker synchronization process so it will the pull the client’s phone number, as well as their first name, last name, and email address from an agent’s MailChimp list.

• Hotlist days setting for Express
  The “hotlist days” setting is now used for featured listings as well, and thus should be usable for Express customers.
