Hi Darrel you were right to recommend this template, i customized for a client and the result was amazing, thank you for this tutorial i would take years to share all this valueble information in just one video. I would like to ask if it is possible to have different dashboard features/layout design to each user type (admin, agent, agency & subscriber)?
Hey! Absolutely, with the Houzez theme, you can customize dashboard features and layouts for different user types like admin, agent, agency, and subscriber. You can achieve this by using user role management plugins such as User Role Editor or Members to define and control permissions for each role. Additionally, Houzez supports conditional content display, allowing you to show or hide specific dashboard elements based on the user's role. For more advanced customizations, you might consider adding custom code or using page builders compatible with Houzez to design unique layouts for each user type. This way, each group gets a tailored dashboard experience that fits their needs perfectly. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Wordpress hosts the website for you, is there any reason why you are recommending hostinger over wordpress? Especially if wordpress hosting costs are included?
Hey! If the "Book Now" and calendar features are missing in your Houzez theme, please ensure you've installed and activated the necessary plugins or extensions that come with the theme to enable these functionalities.
Hey Darrel Im not sure how this works you said , " You can use a plugin like WP User Frontend to handle the submissions, allowing users to input their property details directly from the frontend. Once submitted, you can set up an approval process before the listings go live." Is there perhaps a tutorial or could u explain how to get this done step by step guiding me
Hey! To get users to submit properties via the frontend using WP User Frontend, start by installing and activating the plugin. Next, create a form by going to WP User Frontend > Post Forms > Add New and customize the form fields to match the property details you need. Then, embed this form on a page using the shortcode provided. To set up the approval process, go to Settings > General in WP User Frontend and enable the "Post Status" to be set as "Pending Review." This ensures all submissions are reviewed before going live. Feel free to check out a tutorial for more detailed guidance!
@@darrelwilson There is also no direction for adding a Privacy policy or terms, on the footer :) Great job on these videos but the whole package goal was my goal LOL
@@darrelwilson Are you familiar with ListingPro by Cridio? FYI, they are the worst template by Envato. I wish I could migrate my site to another listing directory!
Can a property added by a user with a seller or buyer role can be published automatically instead be pending? Can I make it automatic for the ones who pay membership? Almost like a SAAS
Hey Darrel You said " To link agents with user roles so they can upload content, first make sure you've created a user account for each agent. Then, assign the "Agent" role to each user under Users > All Users by editing their profile. Next, go to the agent page you created and ensure it’s linked to the correct user by selecting them under the “Author” or “Agent” field (depending on your theme or plugin). This will connect the agent's profile to their user account, allowing them to manage their properties directly. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below. " But Your going to have to be more specific here , I tried this and went into the agent page and then I couldnt find author or agent field , Im not sure exactly where to locate this please be more specific , My theme is the same one you used for this tutorial also , and then how do i link the agents profile to the user account Please guide me step by step precisely where exactly to go and what to do in order to make this work I cant find it like this
Hey! To link agents with user roles in Houzez, first create a user account for each agent under Users > Add New. Then, go to Users > All Users, edit the user, and assign the appropriate role. Next, go to the Agents section in Houzez, edit the agent's profile, and look for a "Linked User" or "Author" field to connect the user account to the agent profile. Save the changes, and the agent will be able to manage their properties directly. Make sure your theme is up to date if these options aren’t visible.
Hey Darrel, thank you so much for this tutorial! it was so clear and healpfull. I have a question about the API config, do we have to config the three API, or just only one is ok? Thanks a lot for your feedback.
Hey! Thanks for the kind words! When configuring the API for the Houzez theme, it's generally recommended to set up all three APIs to ensure full functionality and access to all features. However, if you're only using specific features, configuring just the relevant API might be sufficient. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Thanks so much for the video. @37:13 The agency name doesn't appear under the agent. Although I have assigned him to that agency. I hope you can help. Thanks :)
1st question: How will the agents that I create under the agency upload the properties? Or how to provide a unique dashboard to them? 2nd Question: For property listing who will register and buy subscription package. How will visitors view their profiles? After registering as an agent or agency, no data can be seen on the agent page. Please help me by answering these two questions. Best regards.
Hey! 1. Agents upload properties via their unique dashboard. Ensure they have proper permissions. 2. Ensure agent profiles are set to public in the theme settings for visibility. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments.
Hi Darrel, Great video! Quick questions. Is it possible to set it up so visitors can: Save their searches Receive new property email alerts Get price change alerts Save multiple searches View saved property info View saved property photos Save favorite properties Thanks for your help!
Hey! Yes, the Houzez theme supports these features. You can enable them in the theme options under "Membership" and "User Dashboard" settings. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments.
Hey Darrel again, I was wondering how can we add more than 2 prices in one listing, since some of my listings are for Dormitories and they have 2-beded , 3-beded, 4-beded and more rooms and they rent monthly each bed and ofcourse the prices changes. In one house, they have 3 or 4 or even more prices and is there any option to customise the listing to be able to show the prices all in one listing? Thank you so much :)
Hey! Great question! To add multiple prices in one listing with the Houzez theme, you can customize the property details by using the "Property Features" or "Custom Fields" options. Create custom fields for each room type (e.g., 2-bed, 3-bed, etc.) and input the respective prices. This way, all prices can be displayed within a single listing. You might also consider using the "Multi-units / Sub-properties" feature if available, which can list different pricing options within the same property. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hello! I am grateful to find you. It is an amazing tutorial I am following along it was going great until now but recently whenever i make any changes it does not update on the website. Please let me know why it not working properly
Hey! I'm glad you're enjoying the tutorial! If your changes aren't updating, try clearing your browser cache and WordPress cache. Also, ensure you have the latest version of your theme and plugins. If the issue persists, check your website's caching settings or contact your hosting provider for further assistance. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments.
@@darrelwilson Thankyou it worked. Can you please guide me why my "Create a listing not working". Whenever I click the button it stays on the same page.
Hi again Darrel, sorry to bother you with another question, but do you know why changes of the section Property Detail do not apply when i do them in the Theme Options? Not style, layout manager etc. working Thanks in advance!
Hey! No problem at all. If changes to the Property Detail section in the Theme Options aren't applying, try these steps: 1. Clear your website and browser cache. 2. Ensure you save the changes properly after making adjustments. 3. Check for any plugin conflicts by temporarily deactivating other plugins. 4. Verify that you’re customizing the correct template or page. If the issue persists, consider reaching out to Houzez support for further assistance.
Hello! First of all, I would like to thank you for this wonderful template. I have only one question. For example, I need to change the text on the page with the description of the agent and the list of his properties, as well as some parts. I can only add or remove these parts for some reason. In the theme settings - agents - page with agent details. There are 4 blocks (Ads, About Agent, Agent Sidebar, Agent Map) I can't change anything in Elementor. Not even the color. How can this be done? I can't choose another template for this page, there are only 4 options in the settings
Hey! I'm glad you like the template. For the issue you're facing with editing the agent details page in the Houzez theme, you might need to make those changes directly in the theme settings rather than Elementor. In the theme settings under "Agents," you'll see the options for the Agent Detail Page. These settings control the layout and content blocks. If you want to change the text or colors, you may need to use custom CSS or modify the theme files directly. If you have further questions, feel free to drop them in the comments below.
@@darrelwilson Thank you for your reply. Yes, I saw these settings, but unfortunately I can only disable or enable these sections that I need to change. Can you tell me how I can modify the theme files directly
@@darrelwilson For example, my website is not in English, but at the top next to the photo and the agent’s name there are two buttons: Call and send a message. And these buttons are in English. in the theme settings-translation I translated all the words, but on this page they remain in English. I have the same problem with sorting real estate ads on the agent description page. Sorting options in English and in translation settings there are no such options

Why the Theme Don't Show the Login and Register Pages, Add Listing Button, Why you don't show how to Add Subscriptions and manage them in the Website !! is the theme really support that?
Hey! The Houzez theme does support login/register pages, an "Add Listing" button, and subscription management, but these features might require additional configuration or plugins. Make sure you've set up the theme options and installed any necessary plugins for full functionality. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey! Yes, sellers can upload pictures of houses and properties on a website built with the Houzez theme. The theme provides options for users to upload and manage their property listings directly from the front end. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey! To set up packages where agents can choose to buy 5, 10, or 20 listings in the Houzez theme, you'll want to use the theme's built-in membership and packages feature. Go to Houzez Options > Membership and create custom packages, specifying the number of listings each package includes. Then, assign these packages to agents. This way, agents can purchase the package that best suits their needs. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hi, first id like to thank you for making such an in depth informative tutorial. id like to ask if there is a way to make custom property cards or is there a way to edit existing ones using the free version of elementor? thank you very much
Hey! Thanks for the kind words! To make custom property cards or edit existing ones in the Houzez theme using the free version of Elementor, you can use Elementor's "Template" feature. Create a new template for your property card, then use Elementor widgets to design it as you like. Finally, apply this template to your property listings. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments.
Hello! Is there an option for the Housez theme to change the language ? For example I need the filters to be in French as well as the property details.
Hey! Yes, the Houzez theme supports multiple languages. You can change the language of the filters and property details to French using a plugin like WPML or Polylang. These plugins allow you to translate your site’s content, including theme strings, into different languages. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments.
Thank you for the great video! I am looking to build a website for a company and this is spot on! The only thing I am wondering is, would there be a way to incorporate an online auction bidding plug-in, as they will also be adding 1-3 online auctions per year to their services.
@@darrelwilson Hi Darrel, I am asking! :) I would like to use the hosting you suggested and the theme with your links, but I need to know what workable auction plugin could be used, too, I've looked at WP Auctions Pro, but they have no idea what the Houzez theme is and if it will work, they only stated that it will work if the theme uses the same original configurations that Wordpress does, but in the video, there were changes to the configurations, so I can't be sure. Can you assist?
I downloaded the template as instructed into WordPress. When I go in to edit on WordPress, and Elementor, it does not show any images or the actual theme. Just all the writing that is left aligned. Am I missing a setting?
Hey! If your template isn't displaying correctly in Elementor, ensure all required plugins are installed and activated. Check Elementor > Settings to make sure the post type is enabled. Then, go to Tools > Regenerate CSS & Data in Elementor, and clear your browser and plugin caches. If the issue persists, temporarily switch to a default theme like Twenty Twenty-One. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments!

Hi Darrel, great video man as always. I just wanted to check, on the description (on the property) is it possible to have a 'read more' button because some can be long. Thanks again for all your tutorials.
Hey, yes, you can add a 'read more' button to the property descriptions in the Houzez theme. You can do this by editing the property description in the backend and using HTML to add a 'read more' link. Thanks for watching my tutorials! Feel free to drop your questions in the comments.
Hey, can we design the particular property page on our own with Elementor. I mean we use the meta data of theme but design the layout on our own. If yes please guide how?

Hey Darrel, I've set up the agents and assigned properties under their names. Now, I want to assign them user roles so they can upload content themselves. I've already created the agent pages, but I'm not sure how to link them with user roles. Could you guide me on how to assign a specific user to a specific agent?
Hey! To link agents with user roles so they can upload content, first make sure you've created a user account for each agent. Then, assign the "Agent" role to each user under Users > All Users by editing their profile. Next, go to the agent page you created and ensure it’s linked to the correct user by selecting them under the “Author” or “Agent” field (depending on your theme or plugin). This will connect the agent's profile to their user account, allowing them to manage their properties directly. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.

Hey Darrel for the create a listing button displayed on the front of the website , It gives you the option of adding a custom link to it or keeping the same page , Now the create a listing is supposed to take them to the wordpress setup where they just type the details and the property will then be approved in order for it to be uploaded , but now the issue is that firstly it doesnt give u a custom link in order to make this happen and secondly what are the options for this feature really im not sure how i could go about this ?
Hey! For the "Create a Listing" button in the Houzez theme, you typically need to link it to a submission page where users can add property details. If the theme doesn't automatically generate a custom link, you might need to create a new page in WordPress specifically for property submissions and then link the button to that page. You can use a plugin like WP User Frontend to handle the submissions, allowing users to input their property details directly from the frontend. Once submitted, you can set up an approval process before the listings go live. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey! If you’re having trouble finding the linked user field in the Houzez theme, I’d recommend reaching out to Houzez theme support directly. They can provide the specific guidance you need and any additional resources. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey Darrel I remember when purchasing this theme it said free 6 months support , what does this mean and how would I access it , and then another thing u said there was a documentation video produced specifically for this them where do i access this ?
Hey! The 6 months of free support means that you can get help directly from the theme developers for any issues or questions you have about the Houzez theme. To access it, log in to the platform where you purchased the theme (like ThemeForest), and you'll find a support option under your downloads. As for the documentation video, it's usually provided by the theme developers and can be accessed either through their official website or within the theme package you downloaded. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey! To arrange agents in a specific order with the Houzez theme, you can use the built-in sorting options or drag-and-drop functionality if available in the theme’s settings. Check the "Agents" section in the Houzez theme options or page builder to manually adjust the order. If there’s no option, you might need to use custom code or a plugin that allows for sorting posts or custom post types. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hi Darrel Why isnt my search numbers coming out correct when I place the amounts I want in the options given to the customers by the search options folder
Hey! If your search numbers aren't showing up correctly when you set specific amounts in the search options for Houzez, it might be due to misconfigured search parameters or an issue with the theme's settings. First, double-check that your search fields are set up properly in the "Search Builder" and that they match the data in your property listings. Also, ensure that your currency and number formats are consistent across the site. If the problem persists, try clearing your site cache or updating the theme to the latest version. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey Darrel I understand what you saying for link user to agent , But does this Require the author SEO which is another yearly subscription to do this ?
Hey! Linking users to agents in the Houzez theme does not require the Author SEO subscription. You can manage user roles and agent connections within the theme’s settings and WordPress user management without needing additional subscriptions. If you’re having trouble, make sure you’ve configured the agent role correctly and check the theme documentation for specific instructions. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.

Hey! The main difference between the licenses for the Houzez theme typically includes the number of sites you can use it on and the level of support.

Hi, I purchased the Houzez - Real Estate WordPress Theme and when put it in it doesnt work and says Unpacking the package… Installing the theme… The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet. Theme installation failed. Please Help
Hey! This error usually happens when you try to upload the entire zip file downloaded from the marketplace, which includes extra files like documentation. To fix it, unzip the file you downloaded and look for a specific zip file that contains the theme (usually named "houzez.zip"). Upload this zip file directly in your WordPress dashboard under Appearance > Themes > Add New. This should solve the issue and allow you to install the theme correctly. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey! If the "Create a Listing" option isn't appearing for a logged-in user in the Houzez theme, ensure the user has the correct role assigned (e.g., Agent) and that they have permissions to submit listings. Check the theme settings and make sure you’ve configured user roles properly in the Houzez options. If the issue persists, try clearing the cache or consult the theme's support for further assistance. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Yes, in Houzez, you can customize the CRM (Customer Relationship Management) section by adapting the forms to make them less cumbersome. To do this, you can modify the fields displayed in the forms, reorganize their layout, or even create customized forms tailored to your needs. In addition, you can use options in the theme settings or via custom CSS style sheets to further refine the appearance and functionality of the CRM interface.
@@darrelwilson Thank you so much for your answer. How do you access those forms? When i try to edit the "My profile" page i get the following error: "Sorry, the content area was not found in your page".
Hey! If your advanced search in the Houzez theme redirects to the homepage, try re-saving permalinks under Settings > Permalinks, update the theme and plugins, verify the search settings in the Houzez options, and clear your site and browser cache. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments.

So if i do that would you help me?? We can make a deal as well I will give them service and later on if they ever faced some issues or bugs you will fix it in ruturn of payment.
hey Yes, you can display properties on specific pages based on their categories or statuses. To display properties for sale on the For Sale page, you can use shortcodes or widgets built into the theme that allow you to filter and display properties based on different criteria. You can customize the display settings in the template's admin panel to achieve this. If you need more detailed instructions, you can get further assistance through Houzez's documentation or support team.
Hi, is it possible to get on a quick call with you as im having a lot of difficulties making the website as it does not look like yours. This would be really thoughtful, Thanks
Darrel thank you so much! Great video. I'm having problems with theme options specifically when i have demo 35 imported. Theme options seem to work correctly before the import and then fail to make any changes after I have demo 35 imported. Everything is up to date. I'm wondering if you can replicate this issue because at this point I don't know if I've done something wrong or it's just a bug with demo 35.
I just tried with demo 5 as well. It also doesn't work. I'm just trying to change the header as a test and it doesn't but like I said it works before I import a demo so somethiing changes after the fact. If you have an ideas please let me know.
Nevermind! The first time I simply imported demo 5 after having imported demo 35. The error persisted. But if I do WP reset like you showed in the video and import demo 5 by itself it works just fine. So there is something wrong with demo 35.
hey , check for any plugin conflicts by deactivating all non-essential plugins and then reactivate them one by one. If the issue persists, try re-importing the demo or contact Houzez support for assistance with Demo 35.
Hey! To upload more than 10 pictures of the properties in the Houzez theme, go to your WordPress dashboard, then navigate to Houzez Options > Properties > Media. Here, you can adjust the limit for the number of property images you can upload. Save the changes, and you should be able to upload more than 10 images.
Hey darrel , I have an issue when it comes to the listing button , It says I must add a custom link but I want to direct them to a page where they can list a property and then I can approve it , Im not sure how to do this with the theme settings ???
Hey! To set up a listing button for property submissions in the Houzez theme, create a "Submit Property" page using the "Submit Property" template, then add this page to your menu via Appearance > Menus. Ensure in Houzez Options under Membership > Membership Plans that "Free Submission" is enabled, and set Listings > Listings Submission to "Pending Review." Adjust user roles if necessary. This will let users submit properties for your approval.
hey I spent 3 hours watching the video and you never mentioned, how to do it in Canada, and how to install IDX and the landing page. The rest is nothing special!
Great Tutorial! Just one question - Can you add another tab to the search bar on the home page? At present it has ALL STATUS - FOR SALE - FOR RENT How do I add another tab? Many Thanks!
In Houzez, you can add another tab to the search bar on the home page by modifying the theme's code. You'll need to access the theme files, locate the section responsible for the search bar, and add the additional tab manually. This typically involves editing PHP and/or JavaScript files within the theme. If you're not comfortable with coding, you may want to consult with a developer or the theme's support team for assistance with this customization.
Hey Darrel, thanks for the video it has been really helpful. Quick question, when i login as a user i created as an agent or even as my admin user, I do not have the Create A Listing option. I only get Board, Insight, Properties, Saved Searches, My Profile and Log Out. Any idea why that is? Thanks again.
Hey! Thanks for the feedback on the video. For the issue with the "Create A Listing" option not appearing, it's likely a permissions or settings issue within the Houzez theme. Make sure that the user roles have the correct permissions to create listings. You might need to check the Houzez theme options or user role settings to ensure agents and admins are granted the ability to add listings. If that doesn't resolve it, double-check if there are any additional settings or plugins that might be interfering with the listing creation feature. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
@@darrelwilson Thanks for your prompt response. I have checked everything with a fine toothed comb and don't see any setting. I'm just going to export what I have done, wipe everything out and start from scratch, on the bright-side, it'll be good practice! Thanks again. Keep up the good work!
@@darrelwilson ok i'm an idiot! you explained my problem at the 1:21:14 mark of your video! I just don't know why Houzez wouldn't include that page automatically. Well at least that mystery is solved. Anyways, I found something else interesting that I wanted to ask you. When you create a listing at the 1:42:27 mark, you enter 3000 sqft. However, on the property details page (mark 1:53:22 and 1:54:05) the icon shows as Sq Meters. I am having the same issue, it's a bit misleading. Do you know if there's a way around that? Thanks again.

Darrel I dont know what im doing wrong , Please assist on the Link user to agent Ive went in and I cant find the link option where exactly is this located , the header footer , where ???
Hey! To link a user to an agent in the Houzez theme, go to the WordPress dashboard and navigate to Users > All Users. Edit the user profile and ensure their role is set to "Agent." In the Houzez settings or theme options, make sure that the agent post type is configured correctly. You should also check Houzez > Settings > Agent Settings to ensure that the agent roles and capabilities are correctly set up. If you still can't find the link option, try checking the Houzez documentation or support forums for further guidance. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey darrel its still not giving me the option for the agent to upload a property when they have logged in, I have enabled the free submission and tested it out but i dont see the option, Can u please guide me step by step on what to do , your feedback is highly appreciated
Hey! If agents can't upload properties, first ensure they have the “Agent” role. Then, double-check that "Free Submission" is enabled and that the "Submit Property" page is properly set up and linked in your menu. Clear your cache and test again. If it's still not working, check the theme or plugin documentation for any additional steps. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
@@darrelwilson So the free submission is fine yes , But not I dont understand what you mean ensure if they have the agent role , where exactly to i navigate this and what exactly do i change it to in order for it to function , and then lastly where exactly do i set up this submit property page because if i go to new pages theres no template for this , and secondly why would i need to set this page up if my agents are going to need to upload their properties on the automatic wordpress add property setup
Hey man , Aswell as in the login page there is no option for me to create a listing when a user has logged in , How do I activate and change this so they can do that ?
Hey, to enable users to create listings in the Houzez theme, you need to ensure the "Submit Property" option is activated. Go to your WordPress dashboard, navigate to Houzez Options, then click on "Membership" and enable "Free Submission." Make sure you've set up the user roles properly so that users have permission to submit listings. You may also need to create a new page and use the "Submit Property" template provided by the theme. This will allow logged-in users to create and manage their listings directly from the front-end of your website.
Hey Darrel , So i've watched the part where you explained how to add new users but now I clicked send password reset and now It's not sending the emails to the agents and neither my own email as a test, Is there something I'm supposed to activate, How do I solve this?
Hey, it sounds like there's an issue with your email settings. Make sure your WordPress site is configured to send emails. You can use an SMTP plugin like WP Mail SMTP to set up your email settings correctly. This plugin will help you authenticate and send emails reliably. Check your hosting provider's email settings and make sure they're properly configured in the SMTP plugin. This should resolve the issue with sending password reset emails.

Hey! If you can't find the option to edit CRM fields directly in the Houzez theme options, you can customize them using custom code.

Hey! To link users to the agent role in Houzez, go to Users > All Users assign the "Agent" role, then edit the agent under Houzez > Agents and select the user in the "Linked User" field. Ensure agents can submit properties by checking settings under Houzez > Membership Options. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
The Houzez theme is not directly compatible with the DIVI plugin version. However, you can achieve integration by using DIVI Builder alongside Houzez, but it might require some customization. Alternatively, you can explore other real estate themes that are explicitly designed to work seamlessly with DIVI, such as DiviEstate or Divi RealEstate. These options offer smoother integration and better compatibility with the DIVI plugin. Always ensure to check compatibility and test thoroughly before implementing any theme/plugin combination.

Hey Darrel I saw your comment just now , How do i make sure my theme is up to date i bought the houzez theme through your link would this mean the theme is up to date automatically , if not how do i update it
Hey! To ensure your Houzez theme is up to date, check the theme's update section in your WordPress dashboard under "Appearance" > "Themes" and see if there’s an update available. If you purchased it through my link, you should have access to updates, but you may need to manually check for them. You can update the theme directly from the dashboard or download the latest version from your theme provider and upload it via the "Add New" theme option. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Good work sir , pls my houzez theme after I installed the it and customized it, the map in the homepage is showing the whole globe instead of being zoomed in just my country

If i’m doing a website for a customer and i put my credit cards information so after year they will charge me for the domain and he can see my credit card information?

Hi! please help! how can i customize the search results page?? i only have the theme choice and it's a little bare...i want to add a back home button and other stuff, and i just don't know how! i've tried everything... i made tons of search results pages with the "search result" template, and nothing...it won't let me customize it with elementor...sorry for my english! please help me...thank you!
hey , you can customize the search results page in the Houzez theme by adding custom CSS to achieve the desired changes. If you can't customize it with Elementor, try adding CSS directly in your theme's Customizer or using a custom CSS plugin. Don't hesitate to contact the support theme if you need any help!
Hey, the Houzez theme license typically allows you to use it on one website per purchase. If you want to use it on multiple websites, you would need to buy additional licenses. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.

Hi Darrel you were right to recommend this template, i customized for a client and the result was amazing, thank you for this tutorial i would take years to share all this valueble information in just one video. I would like to ask if it is possible to have different dashboard features/layout design to each user type (admin, agent, agency & subscriber)?
Hey! Absolutely, with the Houzez theme, you can customize dashboard features and layouts for different user types like admin, agent, agency, and subscriber. You can achieve this by using user role management plugins such as User Role Editor or Members to define and control permissions for each role. Additionally, Houzez supports conditional content display, allowing you to show or hide specific dashboard elements based on the user's role. For more advanced customizations, you might consider adding custom code or using page builders compatible with Houzez to design unique layouts for each user type. This way, each group gets a tailored dashboard experience that fits their needs perfectly.

Hey Darrel Im not sure how this works you said , " You can use a plugin like WP User Frontend to handle the submissions, allowing users to input their property details directly from the frontend. Once submitted, you can set up an approval process before the listings go live."
Is there perhaps a tutorial or could u explain how to get this done step by step guiding me
Hey! To get users to submit properties via the frontend using WP User Frontend, start by installing and activating the plugin. Next, create a form by going to WP User Frontend > Post Forms > Add New and customize the form fields to match the property details you need. Then, embed this form on a page using the shortcode provided. To set up the approval process, go to Settings > General in WP User Frontend and enable the "Post Status" to be set as "Pending Review." This ensures all submissions are reviewed before going live.
Feel free to check out a tutorial for more detailed guidance!

Hey Darrel You said " To link agents with user roles so they can upload content, first make sure you've created a user account for each agent. Then, assign the "Agent" role to each user under Users > All Users by editing their profile. Next, go to the agent page you created and ensure it’s linked to the correct user by selecting them under the “Author” or “Agent” field (depending on your theme or plugin). This will connect the agent's profile to their user account, allowing them to manage their properties directly.

Hey! To link agents with user roles in Houzez, first create a user account for each agent under Users > Add New. Then, go to Users > All Users, edit the user, and assign the appropriate role. Next, go to the Agents section in Houzez, edit the agent's profile, and look for a "Linked User" or "Author" field to connect the user account to the agent profile. Save the changes, and the agent will be able to manage their properties directly. Make sure your theme is up to date if these options aren’t visible.

My pleasure!
Hey Darrel, thank you so much for this tutorial! it was so clear and healpfull. I have a question about the API config, do we have to config the three API, or just only one is ok? Thanks a lot for your feedback.
Hey! Thanks for the kind words! When configuring the API for the Houzez theme, it's generally recommended to set up all three APIs to ensure full functionality and access to all features. However, if you're only using specific features, configuring just the relevant API might be sufficient.

Hey Darrel again, I was wondering how can we add more than 2 prices in one listing, since some of my listings are for Dormitories and they have 2-beded , 3-beded, 4-beded and more rooms and they rent monthly each bed and ofcourse the prices changes. In one house, they have 3 or 4 or even more prices and is there any option to customise the listing to be able to show the prices all in one listing?
Thank you so much :)
Hey! Great question! To add multiple prices in one listing with the Houzez theme, you can customize the property details by using the "Property Features" or "Custom Fields" options. Create custom fields for each room type (e.g., 2-bed, 3-bed, etc.) and input the respective prices. This way, all prices can be displayed within a single listing. You might also consider using the "Multi-units / Sub-properties" feature if available, which can list different pricing options within the same property.

Hi again Darrel, sorry to bother you with another question, but do you know why changes of the section Property Detail do not apply when i do them in the Theme Options? Not style, layout manager etc. working
Thanks in advance!
Hey! No problem at all. If changes to the Property Detail section in the Theme Options aren't applying, try these steps:
1. Clear your website and browser cache.
2. Ensure you save the changes properly after making adjustments.
3. Check for any plugin conflicts by temporarily deactivating other plugins.
4. Verify that you’re customizing the correct template or page.
If the issue persists, consider reaching out to Houzez support for further assistance.
Hello! First of all, I would like to thank you for this wonderful template. I have only one question. For example, I need to change the text on the page with the description of the agent and the list of his properties, as well as some parts. I can only add or remove these parts for some reason. In the theme settings - agents - page with agent details. There are 4 blocks (Ads, About Agent, Agent Sidebar, Agent Map) I can't change anything in Elementor. Not even the color. How can this be done?
I can't choose another template for this page, there are only 4 options in the settings
Hey! I'm glad you like the template. For the issue you're facing with editing the agent details page in the Houzez theme, you might need to make those changes directly in the theme settings rather than Elementor. In the theme settings under "Agents," you'll see the options for the Agent Detail Page. These settings control the layout and content blocks. If you want to change the text or colors, you may need to use custom CSS or modify the theme files directly.
If you have further questions, feel free to drop them in the comments below.
@@darrelwilson Thank you for your reply. Yes, I saw these settings, but unfortunately I can only disable or enable these sections that I need to change. Can you tell me how I can modify the theme files directly

Hey Darrel for the create a listing button displayed on the front of the website , It gives you the option of adding a custom link to it or keeping the same page , Now the create a listing is supposed to take them to the wordpress setup where they just type the details and the property will then be approved in order for it to be uploaded , but now the issue is that firstly it doesnt give u a custom link in order to make this happen and secondly what are the options for this feature really im not sure how i could go about this ?
Hey! For the "Create a Listing" button in the Houzez theme, you typically need to link it to a submission page where users can add property details. If the theme doesn't automatically generate a custom link, you might need to create a new page in WordPress specifically for property submissions and then link the button to that page. You can use a plugin like WP User Frontend to handle the submissions, allowing users to input their property details directly from the frontend. Once submitted, you can set up an approval process before the listings go live.

To access it, log in to the platform where you purchased the theme (like ThemeForest), and you'll find a support option under your downloads.

Check the "Agents" section in the Houzez theme options or page builder to manually adjust the order. If there’s no option, you might need to use custom code or a plugin that allows for sorting posts or custom post types. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.

Hey! If your search numbers aren't showing up correctly when you set specific amounts in the search options for Houzez, it might be due to misconfigured search parameters or an issue with the theme's settings. First, double-check that your search fields are set up properly in the "Search Builder" and that they match the data in your property listings. Also, ensure that your currency and number formats are consistent across the site. If the problem persists, try clearing your site cache or updating the theme to the latest version.

If you’re having trouble, make sure you’ve configured the agent role correctly and check the theme documentation for specific instructions.

To fix it, unzip the file you downloaded and look for a specific zip file that contains the theme (usually named "houzez.zip").

Please Darrel, do you have recommendations for free real estate wordpress themes? 😢
Yes, of course, try the Essential Real Estate plugin, which offers decent functionality for free.
Hell Darrel! Thank u for the awesome tutorials. Can I have with you a one2one? I want to dive deeper into this theme and need help.
hey , you can contact me here : darrelwilson.com/contact/
hi darrel great video yet again, quick question is there a way to change the Logo in the top left of the page to our own ? thanks
hey welcome !
sure you can do that in theme option / header / logo
Is it possible to display the property on a specific page, for example, for sale on the For Sale page?
hey Yes, you can display properties on specific pages based on their categories or statuses. To display properties for sale on the For Sale page, you can use shortcodes or widgets built into the theme that allow you to filter and display properties based on different criteria. You can customize the display settings in the template's admin panel to achieve this. If you need more detailed instructions, you can get further assistance through Houzez's documentation or support team.
Hi, is it possible to get on a quick call with you as im having a lot of difficulties making the website as it does not look like yours. This would be really thoughtful, Thanks
hey
if you need help feel free to drop your questions in the comments below .
@@darrelwilson but its that i need to show what it looks like, i cant describe it.
Darrel thank you so much! Great video. I'm having problems with theme options specifically when i have demo 35 imported. Theme options seem to work correctly before the import and then fail to make any changes after I have demo 35 imported. Everything is up to date. I'm wondering if you can replicate this issue because at this point I don't know if I've done something wrong or it's just a bug with demo 35.
I just tried with demo 5 as well. It also doesn't work. I'm just trying to change the header as a test and it doesn't but like I said it works before I import a demo so somethiing changes after the fact. If you have an ideas please let me know.
Nevermind! The first time I simply imported demo 5 after having imported demo 35. The error persisted. But if I do WP reset like you showed in the video and import demo 5 by itself it works just fine. So there is something wrong with demo 35.
hey , check for any plugin conflicts by deactivating all non-essential plugins and then reactivate them one by one. If the issue persists, try re-importing the demo or contact Houzez support for assistance with Demo 35.
Hi Darrel¡, thanks so much for this content :)
Do yo know how to upload more tthan 10 pictures of the properties? the limit is 10/10
Hey! To upload more than 10 pictures of the properties in the Houzez theme, go to your WordPress dashboard, then navigate to Houzez Options > Properties > Media. Here, you can adjust the limit for the number of property images you can upload. Save the changes, and you should be able to upload more than 10 images.
@@darrelwilson It helped a lot, thanks!!
@@darrelwilson could you please elaborate, I can't find this option
theme option>add new property>maximum images
Hey darrel , I have an issue when it comes to the listing button , It says I must add a custom link but I want to direct them to a page where they can list a property and then I can approve it , Im not sure how to do this with the theme settings ???
Hey! To set up a listing button for property submissions in the Houzez theme, create a "Submit Property" page using the "Submit Property" template, then add this page to your menu via Appearance > Menus. Ensure in Houzez Options under Membership > Membership Plans that "Free Submission" is enabled, and set Listings > Listings Submission to "Pending Review." Adjust user roles if necessary. This will let users submit properties for your approval.
Truly good work!
anytime :) if you need help feel free to ask .
Darrel this video is super awesome!!!!!
thanks! feel free to ask .
hey I spent 3 hours watching the video and you never mentioned, how to do it in Canada, and how to install IDX and the landing page. The rest is nothing special!
hey , what do you mean by do it in Canada ?
Great Tutorial! Just one question - Can you add another tab to the search bar on the home page?
At present it has ALL STATUS - FOR SALE - FOR RENT
How do I add another tab? Many Thanks!
Create new page and then in appearance add this page link, then it will show on the home tab
bro, i cant link my search result page with my search bar, any help?@@user-en5vr2rk1h
In Houzez, you can add another tab to the search bar on the home page by modifying the theme's code. You'll need to access the theme files, locate the section responsible for the search bar, and add the additional tab manually. This typically involves editing PHP and/or JavaScript files within the theme. If you're not comfortable with coding, you may want to consult with a developer or the theme's support team for assistance with this customization.
Thank you for your wonderful channel and wonderful content. Please dub it into Arabic and publish the video on your channel (Darrel Wilson Arabic)
Thank you, I will soon .
Hey Darrel, thanks for the video it has been really helpful. Quick question, when i login as a user i created as an agent or even as my admin user, I do not have the Create A Listing option. I only get Board, Insight, Properties, Saved Searches, My Profile and Log Out. Any idea why that is? Thanks again.
Hey! Thanks for the feedback on the video. For the issue with the "Create A Listing" option not appearing, it's likely a permissions or settings issue within the Houzez theme. Make sure that the user roles have the correct permissions to create listings. You might need to check the Houzez theme options or user role settings to ensure agents and admins are granted the ability to add listings. If that doesn't resolve it, double-check if there are any additional settings or plugins that might be interfering with the listing creation feature. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
@@darrelwilson Thanks for your prompt response. I have checked everything with a fine toothed comb and don't see any setting. I'm just going to export what I have done, wipe everything out and start from scratch, on the bright-side, it'll be good practice! Thanks again. Keep up the good work!
@@darrelwilson ok i'm an idiot! you explained my problem at the 1:21:14 mark of your video! I just don't know why Houzez wouldn't include that page automatically. Well at least that mystery is solved. Anyways, I found something else interesting that I wanted to ask you. When you create a listing at the 1:42:27 mark, you enter 3000 sqft. However, on the property details page (mark 1:53:22 and 1:54:05) the icon shows as Sq Meters. I am having the same issue, it's a bit misleading. Do you know if there's a way around that? Thanks again.
Disregard! Found it at 2:18:13. Damn there are tons of options everywhere!!! 🙂
Hi Darrel, how would I go about editing the contact and review forms on the properties?
Hey !
If you can't find the options to edit the contact and review forms in the Houzez theme settings, you can use custom CSS to make the changes. Look for the form's class or ID in the theme and apply your styling accordingly.
We have our own CRM. Can we integrate or connect it with WordPress? Thank you
hey ,
Yes, you can integrate or connect your CRM with WordPress, including the Houzez theme. There are various plugins and integration methods available depending on your CRM platform. You may need to consult your CRM provider or explore WordPress plugins that offer CRM integration functionality.
This is an awesome video thanks a lot
Wanted to ask is it possible to an the agency on the menu
anytime :)
sure you can do it ,
if you need help feel free to ask .
Great video Darrel, I have a question. Can I make the website multilingual using the WPML Plugin? is it compatible with the theme and CRM feature?
Yes, WPML is a good option for making websites multilingual. However, compatibility may vary, so check with your theme and plugins.
Darrel I dont know what im doing wrong , Please assist on the Link user to agent Ive went in and I cant find the link option where exactly is this located , the header footer , where ???
Hey! To link a user to an agent in the Houzez theme, go to the WordPress dashboard and navigate to Users > All Users. Edit the user profile and ensure their role is set to "Agent." In the Houzez settings or theme options, make sure that the agent post type is configured correctly. You should also check Houzez > Settings > Agent Settings to ensure that the agent roles and capabilities are correctly set up. If you still can't find the link option, try checking the Houzez documentation or support forums for further guidance. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey darrel its still not giving me the option for the agent to upload a property when they have logged in, I have enabled the free submission and tested it out but i dont see the option, Can u please guide me step by step on what to do , your feedback is highly appreciated
Hey! If agents can't upload properties, first ensure they have the “Agent” role. Then, double-check that "Free Submission" is enabled and that the "Submit Property" page is properly set up and linked in your menu. Clear your cache and test again. If it's still not working, check the theme or plugin documentation for any additional steps.
Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
@@darrelwilson So the free submission is fine yes , But not I dont understand what you mean ensure if they have the agent role , where exactly to i navigate this and what exactly do i change it to in order for it to function , and then lastly where exactly do i set up this submit property page because if i go to new pages theres no template for this , and secondly why would i need to set this page up if my agents are going to need to upload their properties on the automatic wordpress add property setup
How can I set up a system where people can add property without logging in?
hey, I don't think this option exists in the Houzez theme, try contacting theme support for further assistance.
Hey man , Aswell as in the login page there is no option for me to create a listing when a user has logged in , How do I activate and change this so they can do that ?
Hey, to enable users to create listings in the Houzez theme, you need to ensure the "Submit Property" option is activated. Go to your WordPress dashboard, navigate to Houzez Options, then click on "Membership" and enable "Free Submission." Make sure you've set up the user roles properly so that users have permission to submit listings. You may also need to create a new page and use the "Submit Property" template provided by the theme. This will allow logged-in users to create and manage their listings directly from the front-end of your website.
Great Thanks, Mr. Wilson. I need a website for my business---tomato paste (raw material), can you offer me a format Web and how much?
hey thanks , If you're interested in working with us, here's a link to apply online: darrelwilson.com/custom-web-service/
Hey Darrel , So i've watched the part where you explained how to add new users but now I clicked send password reset and now It's not sending the emails to the agents and neither my own email as a test, Is there something I'm supposed to activate, How do I solve this?
Hey, it sounds like there's an issue with your email settings. Make sure your WordPress site is configured to send emails. You can use an SMTP plugin like WP Mail SMTP to set up your email settings correctly. This plugin will help you authenticate and send emails reliably. Check your hosting provider's email settings and make sure they're properly configured in the SMTP plugin. This should resolve the issue with sending password reset emails.
Can you do another video for MLS integration and with ones other than realtyna
It’s out of my scope of knowledge honestly. I don’t know much on how to connect MLS IDX directly into Wordpress. Mainly because I don’t have my own MLS, so I’ll have to refer you to realtyna
@@darrelwilson i have worked with them on a project before but wasn’t satisfied so I am looking for other providers who would do the integration or who I could do the integration but they provide me with a documentation at least

Hi Darrel, excellent video!! Can i translate types, City, country…? Thanks!!!
hey welcome!
sure you can use plugin like Gtranslate to translate your website : czcams.com/video/V3cu9TOQKRI/video.htmlsi=lsIxV56f7CYN-o26
but the issue is how do you go from a demo site to a real site, we have picked a theme but it only stays as a demo!! any help much appreciated really struggling with the start but guess we have made a few attempts and need to do a reset but when we ready how do we make demo site to a live site?
hey ,
To transition from a demo site to a live site, you can use a plugin like All-in-One WP Migration and Backup. This plugin allows you to easily migrate your site from one environment to another, making the transition smoother.
here is a full tutorial how to do that : czcams.com/video/wbgdQyHi_yg/video.htmlsi=TbQwjsOIxvXkKIFp
hey darrel , is it possible to edit crm fields that customer or agent can see the fields or menu that i want?
Hey! If you can't find the option to edit CRM fields directly in the Houzez theme options, you can customize them using custom code. This allows you to control which fields or menus your customers and agents can see. If you need help with the custom code, you might want to consult a developer.

Hey Darrel I saw your comment for the Link user to agent role , Now I have selected their role as an agent , and I still cant link them because Im not sure if i have to upgrade to this SEO thing which is included in the houzez theme , And Even though Ive logged in from a different google account to test , It still doesnt give me the option to add a property , How do i fix this , I also dont exactly see the link agent to user role , please be more specific as ive went and looked on edit user and edit agent i cant find this ???
Hey! To link users to the agent role in Houzez, go to Users > All Users assign the "Agent" role, then edit the agent under Houzez > Agents and select the user in the "Linked User" field. Ensure agents can submit properties by checking settings under Houzez > Membership Options.
Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Is the houzez theme compatible with DIVI (plugin version) or is there an alternative what works with DIVI.
The Houzez theme is not directly compatible with the DIVI plugin version. However, you can achieve integration by using DIVI Builder alongside Houzez, but it might require some customization. Alternatively, you can explore other real estate themes that are explicitly designed to work seamlessly with DIVI, such as DiviEstate or Divi RealEstate. These options offer smoother integration and better compatibility with the DIVI plugin. Always ensure to check compatibility and test thoroughly before implementing any theme/plugin combination.
Hi, Darrel! Great videos!! I have a question: Can I build a property management database with the Houzez theme? Thanks in advance!
Yes, absolutely
Please help brother I do not have a add new property page. I linked the create listing button but I can see only my available listings I cannot see the page to submit the listing. Thank you for your help
Hey bro, is the problem still persist ?
Hey Darrel I saw your comment just now , How do i make sure my theme is up to date i bought the houzez theme through your link would this mean the theme is up to date automatically , if not how do i update it
Hey! To ensure your Houzez theme is up to date, check the theme's update section in your WordPress dashboard under "Appearance" > "Themes" and see if there’s an update available. If you purchased it through my link, you should have access to updates, but you may need to manually check for them. You can update the theme directly from the dashboard or download the latest version from your theme provider and upload it via the "Add New" theme option. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Good work sir , pls my houzez theme after I installed the it and customized it, the map in the homepage is showing the whole globe instead of being zoomed in just my country

If i’m doing a website for a customer and i put my credit cards information so after year they will charge me for the domain and he can see my credit card information?
No, your customer won't be able to see your credit card information. However, it's better to have your client set up their own payment details to avoid any issues with future billing.
