Add or Change Listing Floor Plans
You can upload floor plans to a listing, where they display in a section labeled Floor Plans. To add or change the floor plans for a listing that has an MLS number, navigate to the Change Listing page. To go to the page, click Change Listing under Add/Change on the menu. Then enter the MLS number or click on the listing in the My Listings section of the page. To add floor plans to an incomplete listing, click My Incomplete under Add/Change on the menu, then select the listing and click Edit.
In the Media section of the Change Listing page, click Floor Plans to open the floor plan section for the listing. You can add or remove floor plans, rearrange the order, add captions, change the primary floor plan, rotate photos, and change floor plan privacy. Updates to floor plans are saved automatically. When you are finished adding and editing photos, click Back in the upper left corner of the page to exit the Change Listing page for that listing.
Tip
The following Guided Help tours are available for this function in Flexmls. When you click on a link, an instance of Flexmls will open in a new browser tab and instruction bubbles will guide you through the process.
Add a Floor Plan
In the Floor Plan section, add a floor plan by clicking the Add Floor Plans button. Select the folder where the photo is located on your computer. To select multiple photos, hold down the Control key (Command key on a Mac) and click on the photos you want to add. Click Open to add the photos to the listing.
The maximum file size per photo is 15 MB or 3000 x 2000 pixels. Flexmls supports .jpg, .jpeg, .gif, .tif, .tiff, .bmp, .png, .pgm, .pbm, .ppm, and HEIC photo formats. Note that large files take longer to upload than smaller files. The maximum number of photos per listing is set by your MLS.
Note
Photo titles cannot be more than 40 characters long. Photo caption (text space under the photo) character limit is 1000. Photos will not upload if the file name includes special characters, including but not limited to the following: [ ] ? * { } : /
Once uploaded, all the floor plans appear on the page.
The number in the upper left corner of each photo indicates the order in which it appears on the listing. To rearrange photos, click on a photo and drag it to a new position.
Alternatively, you can click the drop-down arrow next to the number in the upper left corner of a photo, then choose a position number.
Floor plan privacy options allow you to remove photos from public view without removing them permanently from a listing. Private photos cannot be viewed via the consumer portal, subscription emails, shared links, or public versions of reports. Private floor plans are available only to MLS members who are viewing listings in Flexmls. For users who can view them, private floor plans are indicated with a red Private tag.
You can specify that a floor plan is always private, or you can set floor plan privacy to change automatically based on listing status.
To make a floor plan always private, regardless of listing status, select the photo and click the Mark Private button. The photo will not be available to the public.
To change floor plan privacy automatically when the associated listing goes on or off the market, select the photo and click the Mark Private While Off-Market button. The floor plan will automatically be made private when the listing is in an off-market status. If the listing returns to an on-market status, the floor plan will automatically be made public again. Off-market statuses are specified by your MLS.
To remove privacy restrictions from a floor plan, click the checkbox in the upper right corner of the photo, then click the Mark Public button.
Floor plans that have been marked private are outlined in red with the label Private. Photos that have been marked private while off-market will appear with a dark red outline and the label Private While Off-Market. Photos that do not have privacy restrictions are labeled Public.
Click the Rotate icon to rotate your photos. Each click rotates the photo clockwise 90 degrees.
To remove a floor plan from a listing, click the trash can icon. A pop-up message at the top of the screen appears notifying you that the floor plan has been erased. Click the X button to remove the pop-up notification.
