Synchronization Tag implementation is intended for advanced developers familiar with PHP and WordPress development.
Because of the vast amount of WordPress themes available, we are unable to provide detailed support for each. The following article is intended as a reference, due to the changing nature of themes and WordPress itself.

 If you are using the AgentPress theme, click here.
If you are using the Arjuna theme, click here.
If you are using the Atahualpa theme, click here.
If you are using the default WordPress theme, click here.

Note: If you don't already have the IDX Broker plugin installed, you may download it here. If you decide not to use the plugin, click here to view the code that you will need to add to your functions.php file.

The Synchronization Tags tell our servers where to extract the header and footer content from your website.

Adding IDX Broker synchronization tags to your Thesis 1.8 Theme (or older) is easy. Thesis provides a "Custom_Functions.php" file that you may edit from within WordPress. To add your synchronization tags to Thesis, simply follow the step-by-step instructions below:
  1. From your Thesis menu, go to the Custom File Editor.
  2. Open the Custom_Functions.php file
  3. Add the following script to your file:

    4.              function start_tag() {
                      echo idx_start();
                 };
                 function stop_tag() {
                      echo idx_stop();
                 };

                 add_action('thesis_hook_before_content', 'start_tag');
                 add_action('thesis_hook_after_content', 'stop_tag');

  4. Hit the Thesis "Big Ass Save Button" to save your tags.
  5. Follow these instructions to assign a WordPress page design to your IDX pages. When adding your URL path to the IDX Broker Global Wrapper, you must refer to a page on your WordPress site. You cannot refer to the root directory. If you do not have a page created for this, simply create an "About" page in WordPress and use that URL path.
