Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is this add-on included in my subscription?

    Yes. FWRE Custom Fields is included in the IDX Realtor and IDX Agency tiers of the FW Real Estate subscription. You get the add-on plus updates and support as long as your subscription stays active.

  • Is Custom Fields included in my subscription?

    The Custom Fields addon is a paid addon included in all FW Real Estate subscription packages (Start, Medium, Pro). Install it from your Client Section.

  • What field types can I create?

    Four types are available: text input for single-line text or numbers, dropdown select for single-choice menus, checkbox list for multi-select options, and boolean toggle for yes/no values. Select and checkbox types support unlimited predefined options with translatable labels.

  • How do I organize fields into sections on the property page?

    Create custom groups and assign them to tabs. Fields display according to their tab ordering number: 0-99 shows before property details, 100-199 after details, and 200+ as additional sections. The frontend automatically renders each tab as a separate section.

  • Can I make a custom field required?

    Yes. When creating or editing a field, toggle the Required setting to yes. Agents will not be able to save a property without filling in mandatory custom fields. Enforcement happens at save time.

  • Can I restrict fields to specific user roles?

    Yes. Each custom field has an Access Level setting. Restrict sensitive data to agents or admins, while hiding it from guests or registered users. Fields respect Joomla access levels and inheritance.

  • Are custom fields searchable?

    Yes, when combined with the Search Layouts addon. Visitors can filter properties by your custom field values in search forms and results. Without Search Layouts, custom fields display on property pages but are not filterable.

FWRE Custom Fields Changelog

All platforms

Version 5.1.4 (18 Sep 2026)

No change to how this add-on behaves. Released together with FW Real Estate 7.1.4 so that the update server holds the current build.

Version 5.1.3 (10 Sep 2026)

A custom field belongs to whatever created it. Fields added by another part of the product are no longer listed among the ones you defined here, so the list on this screen is the set you manage.

Existing fields are untouched, and nothing needs adjusting after installing this.

Version 5.1.2 (02 Sep 2026)

No change to how this add-on behaves. Nothing a site can observe is different: the English catalogue was rewritten into the form the WordPress directory extracts translations from, and comments inside the code were shortened. The fifteen languages this add-on ships are unchanged.

Published so that what the update server holds matches the product exactly.

Version 5.1.1 (25 Aug 2026)

No change you will notice. This release rebuilds Custom Fields on the current engine. Its controls no longer carry their behaviour inside the page — the buttons and selects work exactly as before, driven from the shared script file instead — and the markup it produces is written the way each platform expects it. No features are added and no behaviour changes; every page it draws was compared before and after, and they are identical.

Version 5.1.0 (23 Aug 2026)

No change you will notice. This release rebuilds Custom Fields on the current engine — escaping, scripts and styles now go through each platform's own pipeline — and adds no features and changes no behaviour. It is published so the add-on stays in step with the rest of the product.

Version 5.0.0 (17 Aug 2026)

Your own fields on a property — grouped into tabs and cards, with the values you define.

FW Real Estate 7.0 rebuilds the product on a new cross-platform engine. What this add-on does for you is unchanged — the features you use in 6.x are the features you get here. What is new is where it runs and how it reaches you:

  • It runs on WordPress as well as Joomla, from the same code, so both editions stay in step.
  • It has a version of its own. On Joomla that means it is delivered and updated from the store on that version, instead of arriving whenever the component happens to ship a release that bundles it. On WordPress it arrives inside the plugin if it is one of the free add-ons, or in the subscription pack it belongs to.

See the component release notes for the 7.0 story and for how to bring your data across.
