Hi Guys,
First I just want to say thanks for creating such a great plugin! Ian and the team at ultimateweb are really amazing ??
In the newest version of vebra-properties users are presented with the notice to upgrade: https://c2n.me/3GbnxpN.png – is there an easy way to disable this? After clicking close it re-appeared every time.
Thanks
Jay
My client received the following email from Vebra today – are you aware of this?
Dear Web Developer,
We are pleased to advise we have released a new version of the WEB XML API, Client Feed Export (API) v10.
The release includes:
New values that are unique for lettings properties (residential and commercial) which are included in the propstatus element.
File type 6 is now included to reference “full details”.
Addition of new rmqualifier value 16.
Addition of new software field within the reference element.
If you are using an API version pre V9 we strongly suggest you upgrade to the latest version of the software to benefit from all the additional features included.
]]>Super helpful plugin!
In the search filters please allow clickable labels in the next release if possible and separate out the checkboxes / radio buttons in the filters with a containing span or similar.
Its fine on desktop but its much better for mobile visitors to be able to click a label. Also means that the checkboxes can be styled via CSS tricks.
Thanks
Rich
I have selected ‘POA’ to display instead of the property price but my website still shows the price. It shows POA on rightmove but not my website.
]]>Hi,
Can I use vebra feed(in which they provide ftp details) to get data from verba website and upload it directly to website? Or I have to use vebra xml feed, to get data from vebra website.
I have one more question to ask. Is there any way or setting, once I set that,everyday, my client’s website get automatically updated with new property feeds, without touching anything,means automatically.
Thanks in Advance
]]>Hi, I am using the latest version of the plugin with the latest version of wordpress and the plugin is returning no properties? I have spoken to Vebra and the api details I have entered are correct. Are there any known issues with the plugin?
Regards
Joel
]]>Hi,
We would like to display some featured properties, or perhaps the ‘latest properties’ on the home page of the website. Is there any shortcode or php that will allow us to do this?
Thanks in advance!
]]>Hi,
I’m getting broken image tags as 403 errors. Has anybody had this happen before? It’s only happening to a few properties though – not all of them. Could this be down to permissions in my vebra account?
Thanks
]]>Hi
Trying to get quick search to work but location box shows
Sorry!Something went wrong after a couple of seconds and then nothing….

thanks
]]>Hi,
This plugin looks pretty much what I’m after. But I’m not sure if it will work in the current scenario.
Let’s say I’m working with 10 different estate agents, all of whom have their own Vebra API that they use on their individual sites.
What the site I have been asked to look at needs to do is to take feeds from say 10 different estate agents and feed their properties all into one central website. The individual Estate agents would still need the ability to manage their own properties etc.
If you think about how RightMove works, what I’m being asked to deliver is like that only on a smaller scale.
Is this possible?
Thanks
]]>Hi guys, love your plugin and was just about to put a site live but started noticing I was getting error messages in the location search field and the map wasn’t showing.
Looking into it it looks like Google have changed the way their maps api works: https://googlegeodevelopers.blogspot.co.uk/2016/06/building-for-scale-updates-to-google.html so you now need a key to use the api.
I have had to manually add a key into the vebra_properties.php file:
Line 72:
wp_register_script('google-maps', 'https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_KEY_HERE&libraries=places,drawing,geometry');
And line 75:
wp_enqueue_script('google-maps','https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_KEY_HERE&libraries=places,drawing,geometry');
Just wondering if there will be a way to enter the key into the plugin in future?
Cheers
]]>Hey, I have my homepage (https://lytham.voodoodev4.co.uk/) using the “search” shortcode, my “properties” shortcode is on https://lytham.voodoodev4.co.uk/?page_id=33
When I search on the page it just refreshes the page, how do I push the search results to that page?
]]>Hi,
I’m just testing out this plugin so have a brand new WordPress install on my dev machine, no other plugins.
I’ve set it up as per the ‘Instructions’ page.
When I go to settings, fill in the credentials and save it to try and populate the properties, it shows:
There are currently 0 properties listed, last updated on .
I’ve tried adding the following to the config.php file to overcome a possible WP Cron issue:
define('ALTERNATE_WP_CRON', true);
And get a different result:
API Authentication Status: Failed - either your credentials are incorrect OR another site (perhaps a dev site) is accessing the site with the same credentials which Verba dissallow.
I know the credentials work as I’ve connected using an example connection request.
Any ideas where I’m going wrong?
]]>Hi there.
I tried to contact you via you email address but have not had a reply so am leaving this here too.
When we try to share a single property page on Facebook, the root URL property search page is displayed (on Facebook).
I presume this is because a single property is not actually a CPT, but I am wondering if there is a workaround or fix for this.
Many thanks in advance.

]]>Hi,
The plugin works fine except for one issue, the search results don’t go to the next page. do you have a solution for this?
Cheers,
]]>Hi,
Love the plugin, works great and really happy with it, but was wondering if there was a way to further filter the search results?
For example, at the moment, any search for properties for sale shows all properties – including those that are ‘Sold subject to contract’ – likewise, a search for Lettings properties shows all, including those which are ‘Let Agreed’.
Would it be possible to, by default, only show fully available properties (and exclude STC and Let Agreed) but add a tick box that can be selected at the initial search if you wanted to include STC and Let Agreed properties – similar to what Right Move’s search does?
Hi – love the plugin; very helpful, thank you. A quick question … when no results are found in the search, is it possible to instead show a list of properties that meet a different criteria (like, the 10 most recently added), or even just a full list of properties?
I have tried editing vp_list.php to include the properties shortcode but, predictably, that just creates a bad loop / 500 error.
I’ve also tried redirecting to a ‘no results’ page which contains the properties shortcode – but that had the same problems.
Any ideas on how I might achieve this?
thanks!
]]>Hello Is it possible to display Property Reference ID on details page?
Also right now on property details page under Property Details PDF, the plugin is pulling up a PDF from the Summary. Could it pull the PDF from Media -> External Brochures ? This would be the full details of the property (rather than a summary).
Thanks
]]>Hi,
I’m trying to make the properties details pages’ URL a bit more SEO friendly, showing the title of the page instead of the property’s Vebra ID :
At the moment a typical property details URL is :
https://www.website.co.uk/property-details/25643524/
I’d like it to be :
https://www.website.co.uk/property-details/large-flat-in-covent-garden/
Thank you for your help !
]]>I’ve install and configure the plugin. Its working great except when i click on property detail it says:
Oops! That page can’t be found.
It looks like nothing was found at this location. Maybe try a search?
Please assist. Thanks!
]]>Is there a way to display a single random property on the homepage with just an image, bedrooms and price?
]]>Hi
this is a great plugin.
I am having problems updating the feed.
All of my credentials are correct and the plugin connects to the API – I have the “API Authentication Status: Success” message.
However, the details are not being updated. Could this be due to an access token being issued to someone else on the shared server? I don’t know what other sites are hosted on this server? Is the access token issued to a domain name or an IP address. If its an IP address then that will cause problems for sites using the plugin that share the IP address but are effectively different websites. My last successful update was 2 weeks ago.
Is there a way to remove the access token or reduce the time it refreshes?
Thanks in Advance,
Graham
Hi,
Do the shortcodes work in widgets as they don’t for me?
Thanks
]]>Hi Ian – Should there be a PDF button or link on the property details page?
I get a set of h3 text saying ‘Property Details PDF’ and a blank <p> below it. Loking at the code there is an href link to the PDF (which works) but no link shows :o(
<h3>Property Details PDF</h3>
<p>
<a target="_blank" title="" href="https://images.portalimages.com/20960/26050382/brochure/s1/635896738980964074/607ba0c6c4571c8241b49cb6fef378f2916d8248.pdf"></a>

Thanks – Dave
]]>Hi there
Great plugin, thank you.
I’ve managed to get everything up and running pretty well.
A couple of questions if okay.
1. Can the checkbox option for property types be changed to a dropdown menu like the other options available.
2. I would like to show the properties in a row of three (or two) columns, much like the screenshot shown in your plugin page. At the moment its showing as one column and when you get down to mobile device size everything gets squashed up. Are you able to point me in the right direction. I’m happy to amend the php files accordingly.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Best
James
]]>Hi – I have created all the pages detailed in the setup and set them in the settings dialogue.
When I search on the Property Search Page [vebra_search] the page just refreshes it doesn’t push me to the Results page [vebra_properties]
When I use the [vebra_quicksearch] from any page it also takes me to the search page [vebra_search] that I set up in the install..
Any ideas?
]]>Hi,
Great plugin!
When I click a property in the search results, it takes me to the page I specified in the plugin settings but with a 404 error?
e.g. https://kaleidoscope.riweb.uk/vebra-details25671341
My search page is here: https://kaleidoscope.riweb.uk/vebra-search
Thanks,
Ryan
I have taken a brief look at the plugin and notice you have tocreate various pages. Is there a way to craete a search box as a widget so that it can be placed at the top of the page. I am looking to crate a layoput similar to this https://www.hardimans.co.uk/
