Automatic installation
Automatic installation is the easiest option as WordPress handles the file transfers itself and you don't need to leave your web browser. To do an automatic install of Property Hive, log in to your WordPress dashboard, navigate to the Plugins menu and click Add New.
In the search field type "Property Hive" and click Search Plugins. Once you've found our plugin you can view details about it such as the point release, rating and description. Most importantly of course, you can install it by simply clicking "Install Now".
Manual installation
The manual installation method involves downloading the Property Hive plugin and uploading it to your webserver via your favourite FTP application. The WordPress codex contains instructions on how to do this here.
Automatic updates should work like a charm; as always though, ensure you backup your site just in case.
How do I install Property Hive?
Click the download button above or from within WordPress navigate to Plugins > Add New and search for 'Property Hive'.
Does the free core plugin contain everything I need to create a working property website?
Yes. It is possible to create a property website out of the box with Property Hive. You can also use our free Honeycomb theme, which compliments the plugin well.
What kind of properties can I store?
Using the Property Hive plugin you can store and manage sales, lettings/rentals and commercial properties. You can also add additional departments such as student lets, new homes, farms and land etc.
Can I import my properties with Property Hive?
Yes. With a Property Hive Pro subscription you can automatically import properties from all leading CRMs such as Alto, Street, Loop, Reapit, 10Ninety, SME Professional, dezrez, Kyero, agentOS, Juvo, Jupix, Arthur Online, VaultEA, Kato and more.
Does Property Hive work with other themes?
You can use Property Hive with any standard non real estate theme. We also have a free theme of our own, Honeycomb. (https://wp-property-hive.com/theme-options/honeycomb/)
Does Property Hive work with other plugins?
Property Hive is compatible with almost all other plugins. As long as the other plugins you are using don't cause a conflict (for example they also add property search) then there shouldn't be an issue. Contact us if you have questions on this.
Where are you based?
We are based in the UK.
I list properties that are not in the UK. Can I use this plugin?
Yes you can. Property Hive has a range of international options including the option to select which countries you operate in. We also support multiple currencies and store live currency exchange rates to aid with sorting and filtering properties in multiple currencies.
Is Property Hive compatible with page builders such as Elementor and Divi?
Yes, you can use Elementor to build property details and search results pages. You can use Divi to build a property details page. Support for other page builders is coming!
Do I need to know how to code to use Property Hive?
No, you have a few options for styling property pages:
- Use our free Honeycomb theme where everything comes styled by default. Simply add your logo and brand colours.
- Use any theme and use a page builder such as Elementor to build property pages by dropping in widgets that come with the page builder.
- With some HTML, CSS and/or PHP knowledge you can go completely bespoke and override the templates.
Is Property Hive safe and secure?
Property Hive has been running since 2015 and since then has undergone multiple security reviews.
All input and output is validated and sanitised and to this date, we have not had one report of a site being compromised as a result of Property Hive.
Any issues surrounding security are taken seriously and addressed as a matter of priority.
What's the difference between the free core plugin and Property Hive Pro?
The free core plugin contains the foundations that you need to create a property website. With the free version you can also access a suite of front and back end tools and fully functioning Property Hive CRM (or use your own).
Property Hive Pro contains a wider suite of tools that enhance the core plugin. This includes a CRM import tool, portal feeds and much more.
