Duda IDX Plugin Upgrades Your Real Estate Website Projects

No, you don't need any API credentials, tokens or keys from the MLS. We handle all the data aspects entirely. All you need to do is add the plugin to your Duda site and add widgets to pages.

An IDX license agreement and approval will be required from your MLS to show MLS data on your website. This is a standard process to get an IDX license agreement in place, and we will assist you with this.

Buying Buddy receives the IDX data feed directly from the MLS, which is constantly refreshed and updated throughout the day. The plugin and widgets will display MLS content embedded on your Duda site pages.

If you set up a free trial, the data will come from our Demonstration MLS. When you upgrade, there's nothing you need to do - once we get IDX approval from the MLS, the data will automatically switch to your MLS.
If you purchase, the Demonstration MLS data will be shown immediately. As soon as we get approval, the data will automatically switch to your live MLS.

The Buying Buddy Duda plugin requires no IDX APIs, databases, sub-domains, or CNAMEs. You can focus on creating your website and just add widgets wherever you need to display MLS content.

There are many ways to add IDX to your Duda website, including free IFRAME solutions provided by your MLS. However, the following approach is the fastest and easiest way to seamlessly embed MLS content on your website pages without using IFRAMEs or subdomains.

1. Add the Duda IDX plugin
2. Create two pages for "Search Results" and "Property Details" pages and add the corresponding widgets
3. Place the Search Form widget on a page

Follow the process described here to add IDX to your Duda website in about 15 minutes.

Plan your Duda Real Estate website

Create a plan for using MLS/IDX data on your website. Consider how you can leverage the entire MLS for your marketing benefit. For example:

• Do you want a property search form on the home page?
• Will you use MLS/IDX data to highlight your own listings, knowledge, and expertise?
• Do you want to show your active and sold listings?
• Are you planning multiple landing pages for different property types?
• Do you want to capture leads?

Check out examples of how the Duda IDX plugin can display listings and other functions on your Duda website.

1: Install IDX Plugin

Once your Buying Buddy account is set up, copy the Plugin JavaScript to the HEAD HTML section of your Duda site.

2: Add Shortcodes to Pages

Create two new pages on your Duda site: one for search results and another for property details. Add the DIV shortcodes we provide to each page to display the IDX widgets.

3: Add a Property Search Form to Any Page

To test your installation, add a Search Form shortcode (provided by us) to any page.
At this stage, you have completed the initial setup and will be able to search and view properties.

See the short video that shows how this is done.

Do More

Review your initial plan and start adding MLS content throughout your Duda website. The Wizards in your Buying Buddy dashboard will generate the shortcodes you need to display properties in a grid, list, or map, wherever you want.
