    I wanted to test this before I buy, overall its importing fine, the only thing its not doing is being able to import and change the map address in houzez. There does not seem to be a ‘map address’ field, its propulating the address filed ok and this is showing on houzez, but there is a serperate entry for the map address in houzez, without this lots of features of houszez does not work, so its kinda important!

    and each property also needs a field to turn the map on/off per property, its not done globally.

    I am a programmer, so did some digging, the database needs these fields:
    fave_property_map_address (address)
    fave_property_map_street_view (‘show’,’hide’)
    houzez_geolocation_long (float)
    houzez_geolocation_lat (float)
    fave_property_location (lat,long,zoom) float,float,int
    fave_property_map (0,1)

    I’ve just released version 2.0.16 of the plugin which now includes the fields mentioned as options when mapping the fields.

    Do let me know how you get on,

    Thanks so much will test shortly.

    In the meantime I have another suggestion to make this plugin better….

    My client has asked for me to import and update daily and maybe even 4 times daily a database of over 250,000 listings…. currently it will take way! too long to do this at this rate.

    I have research what the bottle neck would be and its the media sideload function by far!

    Now most MLS IDX databases allow you to use images that are in a CDN on their server, so why import when you do not need to?

    I suggest instead of {Image1} etc… allow for {ImageURL1} and when importing just point wordpress to use this image URL and not import… I have used in the past media items that have externed links and they were not imported at all to the local file system wp-content/upload/ for example.

    This will decrease import times I think at least 70%??

    Again thanks!
