Creating a real estate quicksearch

Quicksearch is a simple filter which is ideal for putting on a homepage or sidebar. Filter options and the order in which they are displayed can be set individually.

Technical info:

This plugin uses the following fluid template:

openimmo/Resources/Private/Templates/Immobilie/QuickSearch.html

1. Go to the Seiten module and open the page on which you would like to create a quick search.

2. In the correct content area, click Neues Inhaltselement erstellen and select the OpenImmo - QuickSearch plug-in.

3. Under the Plug-In tab you will find the normal Erweiterungseinstellungen, which look like this:

   

   • Headline: Set the title of your real estate quicksearch.

   • Search fields: Set the filter options that will be available for the quicksearch. You can use the arrow key to sort the items that you have already selected. The following filter options are currently available:

     • Wohnfläche: Select the amount of living space in square metres. Simply define the possible values in Setup-TypoScript as follows:

       plugin.tx_openimmo.settings.search.fieldOptions {
           # Unterhalb dieses Keys können beliebig viele Einträge erstellt werden
           immobilie_flaechen_wohnflaeche {
               # Dies ist der erste Eintrag
               1 {
                   # …er hat das Label egal
                   label = egal
                   start = 0
                   end = 0
               }
               # Dies ist der zweite Eintrag
               2 {
                   label = 30 - 50 m²
                   # Das Ergebnis soll mindestens 30m² haben
                   start = 30
                   # …aber maximal 50m²
                   end = 50
               }
               3 {
                   label = 50 - 70 m²
                   start = 50
                   end = 70
               }
               4 {
                   label = 70 - 90 m²
                   start = 70
                   end = 90
               }
               5 {
                   # Dieser Eintrag soll keine Grenze nach oben haben
                   label = größer 90 m²
                   start = 90
                   # …daher wird einfach ein sehr großer Wert ans Ende gestellt
                   end = 999
               }
           }
       }

     • Basic rent without heating costs: Select the maximum basic rent. You can also setup the available options using Setup-TypoScript - the logic is the same as for real estate living space above.

       plugin.tx_openimmo.settings.search.fieldOptions {
           immobilie_preise_nettokaltmiete {
               1 {
                   label = egal
                   start = 0
                   end = 0
               }
               2 {
                   label = bis 300 €
                   start = 0
                   end = 300
               }
               3 {
                   label = bis 500 €
                   start = 0
                   end = 500
               }
               4 {
                   label = bis 700 €
                   start = 0
                   end = 700
               }
               5 {
                   label = bis 900 €
                   start = 0
                   end = 900
               }
           }
       }

     • Number of rooms: Select the number of rooms. You can also use Setup-TypoScript for setting up the options.

       plugin.tx_openimmo.settings.search.fieldOptions {
           immobilie_flaechen_anzahlZimmer {
               1 {
                   label = egal
                   start = 0
                   end = 0
               }
               2 {
                   label = 1
                   start = 1
                   end = 1
               }
               3 {
                   label = 2
                   start = 2
                   end = 2
               }
               4 {
                   label = 3
                   start = 3
                   end = 3
               }
               5 {
                   label = 4
                   start = 4
                   end = 4
               }
               6 {
                   label = 5 oder mehr
                   start = 5
                   end = 99
               }
           }
       }
