This
add-on plugin extends
immonex Kickstart powered WordPress installations by a variety of widgets and other dynamic content elements for the quick and easy implementation of real estate agency and portal sites with the
Elementor Website Builder.
The focus here is on the presentation of real estate offers, the data of which is managed using a common software solution for real estate agents and continuously synchronized via an OpenImmo® XML interface with
immonex OpenImmo2WP (
Doc) on the WP import side.
All widgets can be used in full with the
free Elementor version.
Elementor Pro is only required for using the
dynamic tags.
The plugin supports both Kickstart's basic frontend components – property list and detail views, search form, image/video galleries, maps, 360° tours ... – and those of its add-ons like
Team (contact persons, agencies, inquiry forms etc.) and
Print (PDF exposé generation).
Suitable widgets are also available for embedding content elements provided by the following immonex plugins:
With the widgets and dynamic tags provided by this add-on,
template pages (e.g., for real estate archives and individual pages) can be implemented both as Elementor Pro templates and as regular pages that can be used in combination with the free version of Elementor.
Custom layouts created in this way can be seamlessly integrated into the framework of any WordPress theme. Furthermore, multilingual websites can also be created on this basis with
WPML or
Polylang.
