NEW! Set Landing Page for Flexmls Subscription Email Links-May 4th

On May 4, there will be a new Portal Preference that lets you control whether clicking a link in a subscription email shows the news feed, only the listings in the email, or a saved search. In addition to this, the Portal menu design will change to allow easier access to the user's saved searches.

Set the Subscription Landing Page in Portal Preferences
There is a new Portal Preference: Listing links from email show: that determines what shows when a recipient clicks a subscription email link. By default, it is set to the MLS Default option (the option also tells you what the MLS Default is). 




If you would like to change where subscription links open, go to Preferences > Portal Preferences and choose one of the other available options:




  • News Feed - Subscription links will open in the recipient's news feed showing the selected listing. As before, the news feed contains up to 200 of the most recent listings your contact has received from their subscriptions. Your contact can use the menu to navigate to their Searches, Saved Listings, Custom Collections, and more.
  • Emailed Listings - Subscription links will open showing only the listings in the recipient's subscription email. If it is an ASAP subscription, there will not be a List tab as there is only one listing to view. Your contact can use the menu to navigate to their News Feed, Saved Searches, Saved Listings, Custom Collections, and more.
  • Saved Searches - Subscription links will open to the selected listing within the Saved Search that generated the email. Your contact can use the menu to navigate to their News Feed, different Saved Searches, Saved Listings, Custom Collections, and more.

  • Please Note: If you set a Portal Preference other than the MLS Default, it will become the default for all of your contacts.

    Set the Subscription Landing Page for a Specific Contact
    To set the subscription email landing page for specific contacts, go to Contact Management, select a contact, and click the Portal tab. Select Change Settings and then set the Listing links from email show: option. 




    Please Note: This selection applies to the selected contact only and takes precedence over your general Portal Preference setting.

    Preview Mode and the Subscription Landing Page
    If you set a contact's subscription Preview Mode to On, the recipient will always go directly to News Feed when they click an email link to view approved listings regardless of what Listing links from email show is set to for the user or in your Portal Preferences.

    Updated Portal Menu Design
    The order of the Portal Menu items will change to allow easier access to the searches saved for the portal user. The News Feed will stay at the top, the next section will contain all the contact's available searches (and a New Search link for Flexmls IDX subscribers), and the last section will contain Listing Collections (Saved, Hidden, Recommended, and custom collections), manually emailed listings, and any reports sent to the contact via Flexmls. Previously, Listing Collections appeared above Saved Searches in the Menu. 




    Please note: Only the order of the menu items is changing; labels and custom collections will remain the same.
