Vieww Property Listings is a WordPress real estate plugin for agents, property managers, holiday-rental owners and small agencies. Publish properties with everything buyers and renters expect — price, bedrooms, bathrooms, parking, land and building sizes, address and photo galleries — and let visitors filter by type, status, location or minimum bedrooms.
Each property gets a polished single-property page with featured image, feature bar, full description, photo gallery with lightbox, and a contact-agent sidebar so enquiries land straight in your inbox. The filterable property grid drops onto any page with a shortcode — perfect for a clean property-listings page on a brochure site, a small agency portfolio, or a holiday-rental hub.
Make it your own with built-in style controls for colours, contact text, currency symbol and area units (m² or sq ft) — so the listings feel like part of your site, not a bolt-on.
What you get:
- A Dedicated Properties Section — listings live in their own area of your WordPress admin, separate from posts and pages
- All The Details That Matter — price, bedrooms, bathrooms, parking, land size, building size, and address
- Organised Your Way — group properties by Type (house, apartment, etc.), Status (for sale, sold, leased), and Location
- Filterable Property Grid — let visitors search by type, status, location and minimum bedrooms
- Beautiful Single Property Pages — featured image, features at a glance, full description, photo gallery with lightbox, and a contact sidebar
- Match Your Brand — pick your own colours, contact text, currency symbol and area units (m² or sq ft)
- Drop-In Shortcodes — place property grids, details, search forms and feature bars anywhere on your site
- Mobile Friendly — responsive layout that looks great on phones, tablets and desktops
- Designer Friendly — every template can be overridden from your theme for full design control
- Secure By Default — built following WordPress security best practices

External Services
This plugin connects to a small number of free, optional external services. Each is described below along with when it is used and what data is sent.
Google Fonts API
Used to load web fonts chosen in the Design Settings. Only occurs when a Google Font (as opposed to a system font) is selected in Properties > Design > Typography.
- URL: https://fonts.googleapis.com
- When used: Only when a Google Font is selected in Design Settings (off by default — system fonts are the default)
- Data sent: The names of the selected font families (e.g. “Inter”, “Poppins”). No personal data or site data is transmitted.
- Privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
- Terms of service: https://developers.google.com/terms
If you prefer not to use Google Fonts, simply leave the heading and body font selectors set to a System Font — no external requests will be made.
Nominatim (OpenStreetMap) geocoding
Used to convert a property’s address into latitude/longitude coordinates so the listing can be shown on the property map. Runs on the server when a property is saved in the WordPress admin, and in the browser when an admin clicks the “Geocode Now” button on a property edit screen.
- URL: https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search
- When used: Only on the admin side — when a property is saved with a new/changed address, or when the “Geocode Now” button is pressed in the Property Details meta box. No lookups run on the front-end.
- Data sent: The property’s address text and the country string “Australia”. No personal data.
- Privacy policy: https://osmfoundation.org/wiki/Privacy_Policy
- Terms of use: https://operations.osmfoundation.org/policies/nominatim/
Leaving the latitude/longitude fields filled manually in the property edit screen prevents any Nominatim request from being sent for that property on save.
Photon (komoot.io) address autocomplete
Used to show a real-time address suggestion dropdown in the admin while typing into the Address field. Selecting a suggestion populates the full address line and coordinates at once.
- URL: https://photon.komoot.io/api/
- When used: Only on the admin side — while an editor is typing into the Address field of a property. Requests stop if the user stops typing or clicks elsewhere. No lookups run on the front-end.
- Data sent: The partial address text the user is typing, plus a geographic bias toward Australia. No personal data, no site data.
- Privacy policy: https://www.komoot.com/privacy
- Service info: https://photon.komoot.io/
If you prefer not to use Photon autocomplete, simply ignore the suggestions and type the address manually — no suggestions will be acted on unless you click or Enter one.
