Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is the Search Module included in my subscription?

    The Search Module is a free add-on included with every FW Real Estate installation. No subscription required to use it. However, subscribing gives you access to all premium add-ons, priority support, and automatic updates.

  • What platforms does the Search Module support?

    The Search Module is available for Joomla 4.x, 5.x, and 6.x. It is included in the main FW Real Estate package and installs automatically with the component.

  • Can I choose which search fields appear on the form?

    Yes. The module offers 18 individual search fields that you can toggle on or off from the Joomla admin panel. This includes bedrooms, bathrooms, price range, property type, location fields, lot size, MLS number, and more.

  • What is the difference between the Default and Minimal layouts?

    The Default layout displays all selected search fields in a full-width form, ideal for homepage hero sections. The Minimal layout is a compact horizontal form designed for sidebars or headers, with secondary filters collapsed into a dropdown.

  • Does the Search Module work with other FW Real Estate add-ons?

    Yes. The Search Module automatically detects installed add-ons and adds relevant fields. Install Map View to get radius search, Agents to get an agent filter, Custom Fields for amenity filters, Multi Currency for a currency selector, and Saved Searches for a save button.

  • Can I use range sliders instead of dropdown menus?

    Yes. In the module settings, you can switch between interactive range sliders and traditional dropdown select menus for price, bedrooms, bathrooms, living area, and lot size fields.
