Add Search and Sort Features to your Account Profile

vFlyer has introduced capabilities for vFlyer Starter members and above to add search and sort functions to their Account Profiles. What this means is that you now have the option of enabling viewers of your Account Profile (the web page that displays links to all your active vFlyer listings as well as your contact information, your photo and logo, a description of your business, and links to other websites) to search within particular categories of listings and sort listings by price, title, or date created. If you have multiple categories of listings such as For Sale and For Rent, this also means that end users can choose to filter to see the listings for just one of them.

We also introduced the option of setting the number of listings displayed per page (which used to only be five) at 5, 10, 20, 50, or all listings on one page.

To add search and sort functions and set the pagination of your Account Profile, click the Account tab, then click the Settings link. There you'll see new options for showing search and sort and setting the number of listings per page. Once you've made changes to your Account Profile settings, click Update.

What's significant about these enhancements? Well, in a nutshell, they make your Account Profile, already a useful marketing tool, immensely more useful to both you and the viewers of it by allowing for a more customizable display of listings and making it easier for viewers of it to find listings that fit their needs.

We expect that these changes will increase the number of vFlyer members who embed their Account Profiles in their websites. To put your Account Profile on your website, you (or whoever manages the website) will need to use an iframe to do so. An iframe is an HTML tag that inserts one web page into another and displays it in a frame. To embed your Account Profile using an iframe, follow these steps:

1. Copy the URL of your Account Profile. You can access the URL by clicking the Post Flyer tab from the Flyer Editor or the Post your Flyer quickly & easily link from your Flyer Dashboard. The URL will be labeled "Link to your Gallery."

2. Open the HTML file for your website.

3. Copy and paste this code:

<iframe src=”Account Profile URL" height='1000' width='900'</iframe>

Where "Account Profile URL" is, replace the text inside the "" with the URL of your Account Profile and leave the quotation marks. Paste this code where you want the Account Profile to appear on the page. Depending on how large you want the Account Profile to appear on the page, you can adjust the height and width dimensions accordingly.
