Since our plugin is built on top of Advanced Custom Fields Pro, you can use their functions to retrieve a property's individual fields. This is especially useful when building the single property page.
get_field
: https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/get_field/get_fields
: https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/get_fields/the_field
: https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/the_field/
get_field('location')['street']
// Returns string
get_field('features')['images']
// Returns array of images
get_field('price')['amount']
// Returns integer
This allows for very easy data manipulation.
A complete overview of all of the included fields will be added to this documentation at a later stage.
Run get_fields()
on a single-estate.php
page to see all of the fields of a property.
Perform a var_dump()
of the ::list()
method to see all published properties, and its available fields.
This plugin offers you a lot of freedom on how to implement SweepBright within your website. We only require a naming convention for the template of a single property page (single-estate.php
).
Property overview page
e.g. page-estates.php
The above filename is just an example. You're free to name this template however you want.
Single property page
e.g. single-estate.php
This template file is required. This is the template where the single property page will be rendered. Methods as seen in chapter 3 only work within this template.
Returns an array containing all of the published properties (paginated). This method is also used for filtering and sorting. The returned data is a multi-dimensional PHP array, which can be easily transformed into a JSON object, if you want to use JavaScript.
WP_SweepBright_Query::list([
'page' => <integer>, // Current page
'recent' => <enum>, // false, <number of properties>
'mapMode' => <boolean>, // when set to true it disables pagination and only shows relevant information to display on map markers
'showAll' => <boolean>, // when set to true it disables pagination and lists all properties (not recommended)
'sort' => [
'order' => 'desc', // "desc", "asc"
'orderBy' => <enum>, // "relevance", "price", "date"
],
'filters' => [
'status' => <string> or <array>, // false, "available", "sold", "option", "under_contract", "rented"
'new_home' => <boolean>, // Only show properties with their general condition set to 'new'
'negotiation' => <enum>, // false, "sale", "let", "projects", "sale_non_projects"
'agent' => <array>, // false, e.g. [tromp.jess@hudson.biz, mary.ann@hudson.biz]
'category' => <array>, // See all of the categories in the docs under "type": https://website.sweepbright.com/docs/#sweepbright-website-api-endpoints-estate

Tip:
In order to get a complete overview of all of the data being returned by the list()
method, it's best to inspect it with var_dump()
. The plugin has all of SweepBright's property information available. You can see all available data here.
SweepBright has a concept called "projects & units". What this means is that you can have properties with multiple units, such as an apartment building with multiple units, or a new-build project with multiple lots. Within SweepBright, the project itself is basically the same as a regular property. The biggest difference is that projects have multiple units. Units are also similar to regular properties, with the exception that they have a relationship to their parent project by having
project_id
linked to their parent.
The example below explains how to retrieve a list of units from a project with ID: 000-000-000
.
WP_SweepBright_Query::list_units([
'is_paged' => <boolean>, // Enables or disabled pagination
'page' => <integer>, // The current page (pagination is applied automatically)
'ignore_self' => <boolean>, // Show or hide the current unit (useful if you're showing a list of related on a single unit page)
'project_id' => <string> // The project's ID
]);
Example request:
WP_SweepBright_Query::list_units([
'is_paged' => true,
'page' => 1,
'ignore_self' => false,
'project_id' => '000-000-000'
]);
