Important Notes:

  • The MLS search preview may not be visible while logged into your admin account
  • Some IDX services require additional code injection
  • Ensure your service provider's code is compatible with your website platform
  • Consider consulting with a web developer for complex implementations

For optimal results, verify that your IDX service provider offers responsive design support and mobile compatibility to ensure the best user experience across all devices.

Remember to regularly test the search functionality to ensure it continues working correctly after any website updates or changes.
