Yes. FWRE Map View is included in the Solo Agent, 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.
The Map View addon is a paid addon included in all FW Real Estate subscription packages (Start, Medium, Pro). Subscribers can install it from their Client Section along with all other premium addons.
Yes. To display maps on your website, you need two Google API keys: one for the Maps JavaScript API (browser-side) with HTTP referrer restrictions, and one for the Geocoding API (server-side) with IP address restrictions. This separation is required by Google and protects your keys from abuse.
Yes. In the addon settings, select Mapbox as your provider and enter your Mapbox API key. Mapbox is an alternative with different pricing and styling options. You can switch providers at any time without re-entering property coordinates.
Enable the Display Map on Listing Page setting and add a radius field to your search form. Visitors enter an address and a distance in miles or kilometers, and the addon filters properties by geographic distance in real time. Works with the FWRE Search Module add-on.
Properties without valid latitude and longitude coordinates will not appear on map views or in radius search results. The addon silently skips them. You can add coordinates manually in the property edit form or re-save the property to trigger automatic geocoding.
Nothing about this add-on behaves differently. Its site templates now travel with the add-on itself rather than living in the design, so exactly the same markup is rendered from a different place. A design still has the last word: where a design offers its own version of a template, that version is used, as before, and a site that has customised one keeps every customisation.
⚠️ This version requires core 7.1.0, which is the release that knows to look inside an add-on for its templates. The add-ons catalogue will not offer it to an older core, so update the core first.
The rest of the release is work inside the source that a site cannot observe: the English catalogue was rewritten into the form the WordPress directory extracts translations from, and comments were shortened. The fifteen languages this add-on ships are unchanged.
No change you will notice. This release rebuilds Map View on the current engine: the markup it produces is now written the way each platform expects it, so nothing it prints can be mistaken for unescaped output. It adds no features and changes no behaviour — every page it draws was compared before and after, and they are identical.
No change you will notice. This release rebuilds Map View 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.
The map: a searchable map page, the map on a property, and the radius search that goes with them.
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:
