Upgrading IDX Broker Legacy Widgets to New Widgets
Many IDX Broker legacy widgets may be easily upgraded to newer, modern widgets with more customization and implementation options available through the Design tools menu.
- To upgrade your IDX Broker legacy widgets, select Design > Widgets > Legacy.
- Legacy Showcase, Carousel, and Slideshow widgets eligible for an upgrade are marked with the circular arrows icon (when you hover on the icon it will say “Upgrade Now!”).
- Existing widget settings will apply to the new widget, but custom widget CSS will not be applied to new widgets.
- If prompted, select a layout option for your new widget.
- Click Save changes.
- Verify your legacy widget is now a new widget by selecting Design > Widgets > New.
- You should see your legacy widget name at the top of the new widget page.
- Select the drop down menu under tools.
- Select Edit and open your upgraded widget to explore the new design settings and fields to display. You will also see a preview of the new widget design in the Widget Preview tab. You may also use the Map/Polygon tab (if applicable) to adjust your map settings using the standard drawing tools.
- Important! To see the new widget appear on your site, you will need to copy and paste the newly generated widget script manually into your website. Copy the new code in the same menu by selecting Edit > Copy Code.
