FW Real Estate – Documentation
Create Your First Property
This section walks through the shortest path from a freshly installed FW Real Estate to a live, viewable property on your site. The whole thing usually takes under 10 minutes.
Step 1: Open the Admin
In your Joomla admin, open FW Real Estate → Properties. This is where every property you create will live.
Step 2: Add Your First Property
Click New (or the green plus button). The property editor opens with all the fields you'll need on a single form. No fields are required by default. Filling in title, type, price, address, and at least one photo is enough for a meaningful first record.
Fill in the basics and click Save. Don't worry about getting everything right the first time; every field is editable, and there's no hidden penalty for incomplete records during setup.
Step 3: Publish It
Set Published to Yes on the Primary tab and click Save again. Existing properties can also be published from the listing toggle without opening the editor.
Step 4: View It on the Frontend
Create a Joomla menu item of type FW Real Estate → Properties Listing and visit it. The new property appears in the list, styled by the bundled Official design.
You're Live
That's the minimum. Everything from here is layering: more properties, more layouts, more add-ons. The Common Tasks section links to the next things most users want to do.
