The IDX App allows you to control settings related to MLS and IDX implemented on your site.
It’s important to note that there are different options and instructions depending on whether your IDX is provided by iHomefinder or Easy Agent PRO. If you're unsure which your LeadSite uses, this article covers the immediately recognizable differences between the two, otherwise please reach out to our support team support@easyagentpro.com and we would be happy to assist.
To access your IDX App, click Apps in the top menu of your Dashboard, navigate to the Lead Capture Apps section, and click the IDX App icon. Click Settings to access IDX Settings.
Settings
Once inside the IDX App in the SETTINGS section (top of page), you’ll see a menu of options available on the left. Within each of those options, are relevant settings that you’re able to change and update.

IDX Path
The IDX Path section allows you to connect a Path (created by you in the Paths App) to your listings. -

Default Search
The Default Search settings allow you to adjust how your search, results, and listing pages will look and work to your visitors.- Search Area: The Search Area section allows you to create a specific market (or group of listings) that will always appear by default on your LeadSite’s Basic Search Page.
- Disable IDX Lightbox: When a listing is selected from search results, it opens in a "lightbox" popup. Toggle this option on if you want listings to open as a full page.
- Open Listings in New Window: If you would prefer the expanded listing pages to open in a new window or tab instead of the same window as the results, toggle this option on.

Search Text
The Search Text section allows you to control the text settings for the search form and the text on the Advanced Filters form button. -
Request Listing Update
If you’ve had to make a change to one of your listings with your Board, you’ll find there is sometimes a delay in that update reflecting on your LeadSite. While we update listings in a timely manner, there may be times that you need your site updated immediately. In such a case, you can enter the MLS Listing ID here to update the listing and have the change reflected immediately. -
Prioritize Agent/Office
If you would like to have your own listings prioritized in the search results, you can do so from this section. Add in your Agent ID and/or Office ID to have your own personal/office listings appear first in clients' search results! -

(Note: Your MLS Board may disallow or limit the display of sold listings. If this is the case, you can manually add your sold listings to your My Sold Homes page.) -

Log into your Facebook profile to connect your catalog of listings to your Facebook Business Page for running ads and Facebook Shopping promotions. -

Custom listings
The Custom Listings section allows users to showcase off-market or personal listings directly on their website. Ideal for agents without IDX access or those in regions without MLS/IDX feeds, this feature ensures that all your exclusive properties get the visibility they deserve, seamlessly integrated into your site's listing feed.
Users can add listings individually or in bulk by uploading a spreadsheet, with a downloadable template available to simplify the process.
