VERY simple real estate website
5 replies · Started by John on September 12, 2021
Hello,
I am in the process of making a simple real estate website. This is the layout:
- Homepage
- About us
- Contact us
- Listings page
- Blog page
- Article1 (post)
- Article2 (post)
My main issue right now is how would I go about creating a nice listings page that would be automatically generated from the individual listings (with some input panel), without downloading a heavy plugin for real estate with a ton of additional features that I don't need.
To keep the site lightweight, I am even thinking of not using a plugin at all and creating the listings page manually with blocks. My problem in this case is that I can't find a way to make the images clickable so that users can see other photos of the listing.
Can you recommend me a lightweight plugin that works well on GP for either case? To my understanding, it doesn't have to be real estate specific.
Also, I will want to add multiple translations of the whole site. What is the best way to do this?
Many thanks!
Hi there,
You can consider using the Gallery block from WP core:

Or a gallery plugin like Envira.
Let me know if this helps :)
Hi Leo,
Thanks for your reply.
I tested Envira and the default Gallery block but they don't give me an option to create a listing where you can click the image and view the rest of them in a popup. So it's not exactly what I want.
Let me know if you have any other recommendations.
I don't have other recommendations unfortunately.
I'd assume what you need is some sort of gallery option so worth checking out some other plugins and find one that matches your request :)
Got the job done exactly how I wanted it with Metaslider + Metaslider Lightbox + Simple Lightbox.
Thanks for your help anyway!
Glad to hear :)
