Questions, answered
How do I get help?
Start with the help center. If you are stuck, use the contact form and we write back to the email you give us. There is no phone line yet.
Do I need a developer?
No. In WordPress go to Plugins, Add New, Upload Plugin, choose idx-bloom.zip, then Install Now and Activate. Open IDX Bloom in the admin menu and follow the four setup steps. A developer or agency can do it for you, but it is not required.
Will visitors or Google see anything while I test?
No. In Preview mode IDX Bloom only runs on one private page that only logged-in editors and admins can open. It adds nothing to robots.txt, your sitemap or any other page.
Does it edit my pages?
No. Listings are added when a page is shown, never saved into your content. Deactivate the plugin and every page returns to exactly how it looked before.
Is IDX Bloom live yet?
Plugin version 1.5 runs on the live demo and on a real agent site, in Preview mode. IDX Bloom is in pre-launch: it opens first in a small group of pilot markets, and live MLS listings need an approved data connection. You can start a free pilot, no card.
What happens if I deactivate or uninstall it?
Deactivate the plugin and every page returns to exactly how it looked before, because IDX Bloom never edits your pages. Uninstalling also deletes the private preview page.
