[Plugin: RealShoutSearch] Is this plugin working for anyone?

I am also having problems getting RealShout 2.0 to work with WP 3.0.1

It seemed to work ok with WPMU 2.9.2, but things broke in the admin when I upgraded to 3.0.1.

Upon upgrading from WPMU 2.9.2 to WP 3.0.1, the following links no longer work on the RealShout Default Search menu in wp-admin:

– State/City Management
– Listing Types
– User Contact
– Google Map API Key

Clicking on the above menu options simply redirects back to the
wp-admin Dashboard.

I also tried a fresh install of WP 3.0.1 and setting up the plugin brand new, but I keep getting a You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page. message when I try clicking on the ‘State/City Management’ link for the plugin in wp-admin.

I concur. I tried a fresh install on WP 3.0.1 and got the same message. I’m, of course, very disappointed and hope that the authors get the problem resolved quickly.

having the exact same problem as bdoreste. I wonder if this will ever be resolved!

Just wanted to let everyone know that we are working on a new version that will work with 3.0.1 and WPMU. Not an easy undertaking so it is taking a little longer than anticipated. Not to mention that this is free so we have to focus on our core business first.

We are hoping it will be ready within the next couple of days.

Version 3.0 has been released for the plugin and is compatible with WP 3.0 but it is not compatible with WPMU.

Realshout! One quick question. I’m considering customizing the plugin for an entirely different use, but I have one critical question.

Is the plugin using custom fields for the data it’s searching for?

This is probably an obvious answer, but since my plugin isn’t working at the moment, it’s a bit harder to figure out. I’d love to know whether or not it’s worth the effort to get it working and edit it. Thank you so much for your help! This is a superb plugin!

Cheers!

Hello David – It doesn’t use custom post fields.

Did you follow the install directions here in the exact order

Cool, that answers my question. Appreciate the help! Cheers.

This is an awesome plugin, but I have a few ideas to make it work even better:

1.
I’d like to widen the drop-down boxes from 90px to 150px or so. I
tried editing RealShout-RealEstate.php to change the width values in
the “select” attributes for the boxes from 90px to 150px, but no dice. Is some CSS overriding those values?

my goal: there are several towns in Delaware which encompass several
zip codes; i.e. Wilmington covers 19801, 19802, 19803, etc, thus
google returns results over a fairly wide area for “Wilmington”

I did a little playing with the “city” field, and found out that if
you code the city as “Wilmington, 19803” instead of “Wilmington, then
you can filter the results even further.

The problem: “Wilmington, 19803” does not fit in 90px wide drop down box ??

2.
It looks like Google Base also collects Open House info:

I would love to be able to provide searchable Open House data on my
site. There are also other searchable attributes in the Google Base
data, which include: agent, broker, feature, hoa_dues, mls_listing_id,
model, parking, property_taxes, school_district, style

Is there any way to add any of the aforementioned searchable fields to
the fields already included in the plugin? I would love to add
functionality to search by school district, or even by parking or MLS
id.
