  • This robust real estate plugin just got updated and hope it will put smiles on our faces!

    Hello and trust you’re doing well!

    You can achieve your goal with the property shortcode below:

    [ere_property show_paging="true" include_heading="true" property_featured="true" layout_style="property-grid" columns="3" items_md="3" items_sm="2" items_xs="1" items_mb="1" columns_gap="col-gap-30" property_type="" property_status="" property_feature="" property_city="" property_state="" property_neighborhood="" property_label="" item_amount="12" image_size="330×180" view_all_link="" el_class=""]

    With the above, the only thing missing from your desired goal is the view more button. However, there will be pagination to view the next batch of listing.

    ERE is very flexible, you can also implement the view more button if you play with it.

    Hope this will be helpful!

    For anyone who may have the need of disabling the plugin CSS, the code below does it.

    // Dequeue acadp css file
    function dequeue_dequeue_plugin_style(){
    wp_deregister_style( 'advanced-classifieds-and-directory-pro' );
    }
    add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'dequeue_dequeue_plugin_style', 9999 );

    Thanks for your response!

    Actually, our plugin CSS file loads after the theme’s CSS, and it’s essential for the correct layout and styling of the plugin. Disabling it would cause the plugin design and layout to break, so it’s not technically possible to disable the plugin CSS.

    The plugin CSS loading after the theme’s CSS doesn’t seem design friendly at all. Yes, the plugin styling is good but that’s not the styling i want for every aspects of the project.
    The plugin CSS is controlling all the styling including buttons, headings, line heights, margins, padding, etc. Having to override almost every styling of the plugin is counter productive for this project. Also i prefer doing my styling from a child theme instead of the customizer.

    My reasoning of blocking the plugin CSS file is so that after blocking the file, I can then copy the content and either add it to the theme’s CSS or enqueue it on a separate file.

    Technically, i believe it’s possible to dequeue the plugin stylesheet and re-enqueue it from the theme’s function.php, in this way i can have control over the design of the project.

    Thanks for your anticipated assistance.

    Thanks for your concern and suggestion!

    I already figured that out and disabled it. However, the post publishing time is about 1min plus.

    It’s really frustrating to be waiting for that long in order to continue with other tasks.

    Hello Sakib and thanks for your interest.

    A little background: I was initially using RankMaths and discovered that neither the Title nor the Description of pages set with the plugin was being used by Google in SERP. When I reached out to the team, I was told that it’s a new trend, that Google auto generates more than 70% of titles and descriptions for pages but i wasn’t convinced.

    Fast forward: I decided to use your plugin, which is so far impressive.

    After setting up and monitoring, i discovered that the description set in the plugin was being used but the title was being ignored.

    I also observed that its a site-wide issue affecting even regular pages.

    Could you please share a bit more details regarding the query strings and URL of the pages (example) you’re referring to? My guess was that since i used the code in my initial question to alter the titles of certain parts of the site, i thought that could’ve been the problem.

    On the home page, below is what is set:

    https://propertymarketplace.com.ng/

    Find property for sale in Nigeria - Property marketplace

    Find property for sale in Nigeria and sell your property in Nigeria, We make it easy to buy property and invest in Nigeria real estate market.

    Below is what is returned:

    Property Marketplace

    Find property for sale in Nigeria and sell your property in Nigeria, We make it easy to buy property and invest in Nigeria real estate market.

    Another page:

    https://propertymarketplace.com.ng/buy-property-in-nigeria/

    Buy property in Nigeria - Find house, flat, land for sale

    What’s shown on SERP:

    Thanks so much in advance and let me know if there’s any information from me that will help.

    Hello William,

    Guess you have been able to find a breakthrough!

    The ERE plugin is very robust and flexible, you just have to give it some time to understand how the layout or bootstrap works since it was designed with the later.

    If you’re using a non bootstrap theme, then there will be no need disabling the bootstrap files from the plugin since those files are needed by the plugin.

    Another thing you can do is to override the existing plugin templates. This article from the plugin author will guide you.

    One of the main issues that was breaking my layout were the following files: wrapper-start, wrapper-end. you can find them at plugins/essential-real-estate/public/templates/global. Since i use a bootstrap theme, the above files were attending what my theme had already added.

    Generally, you have to do some overriding to get the desired result for your project.

    If you believe the current update is breaking your entire site, you can download older versions of the plugin here and test to see if your problem will be solved. When you open the link, scroll to the bottom of the page to access older versions of the plugin.

    My advise generally will be, if you’re able to fix the issue, you have to thoroughly test future updates on a development server before running it on the live website.

    For the past week, the plugin authors have been releasing constant updates which i believe will get the plugin stable again.

    For this plugin: Asset CleanUp: Page Speed Booster, it’s fantastic and can improve the overall performance of your site since it enables you to load scripts only on the pages needed. I’m ditching Autoptimize for it.

    Wish you luck!

    Warm regards.

    Hello William,

    Firstly, i would say ERE is a very good plugin but the author is not very communicative and helpful with issues like this. They have to clearly carry us along with the plugin development updates.

    In fixing my issues, i discovered, they upgraded the bootstrap version from 3 to 4. At the time, my theme was already using version 4 but my theme was still breaking.

    What solved my problem was disabling the bootstrap files used by the ERE plugin using this plugin Asset CleanUp: Page Speed Booster (get it from plugins dir), because i couldn’t dequeue or de-register any of the plugin files from functions.php

    Doing the above solved my problem.

    Warm regards.

    Thanks so much and the last one on this:

    I would appreciate to get the permalink instead and also merge the post-url label(url) with the message field?

    like so:

    Hello, I would like to inquire about the availability of your property: 5 bedrooms detached duplex

    Thanks and warm regards

    Thanks so much.

    I missed it when going through the docs.

    please, how can i also get the post permalink or URL
    into the message field?

    From what i understand, the URL parameter data source is used in
    parsing parameters through the URL.

    I appreciate.
