The Daily Email signup map is now available for your HomeQuest hosted IDX site.  Thats right, website visitors can sign up for daily listings right to their email inbox.  When a client signs up, their name, email address, and phone number (if entered) they will be entered as a new contact into your HomeQuest database.  You will receive an email alerting you to a new contact, and they will receive a welcome email followed by their first Daily Email containing a link to their listings.  Follow the instructions listed below to create a page in your IDX website that displays a Daily Email signup form.

It is important to note that listings that are delivered through email are displayed on the Client Looking Glass map, not on your IDX website map.

Adding a Daily Email map page to your IDX site:

Step 1:  From the “Write” menu, click “Page”.

Step 2:  Name your page, then without entering anything into the content, scroll to the very bottom of the page.

Note: Any content you enter into this field will not show on the page.  The special page we are creating will show the daily email signup map and nothing more.

Step 3: From the “Page Template” drop down, select “Page Map”

Step 4: Publish the page by clicking the “Publish” button.

Your website now has a page containing only the Daily Email signup map similar to the one displayed below.
