Hi Jim,

What you could do is create a new homepage field called "Website URL", and when modifying a realtor's homepage you would enter in the URL for the reators website into the "Website URL". This URL would then be output as a link on the realtors homepage.

Here's how to do this.

1. Create a new homepage field called "Website URL"

This can be done by going to the "Setup Options" --> "Setup Homepage Fields"

Find a spare listing field where you can add this. In this example we'll use field #15. Enter in the following:

"Website URL" - select text field as the field type- make sure to click the "Active Field" check box.

2. Now open up your _publish_homepage.html page and change this:

<tr>
<td>Listings: </td>
<td><a href="$search_url$?user_num=$user_num$&search=1">View my listings</a></td>
</tr>

To somethinglike this:

<tr>
<td>Listings: </td>
<td><a href="$search_url$?user_num=$user_num$&search=1">View my listings</a>
   <a href="$hfield15$">Visit my website</a></td>
</tr>

3. The last thing to do is to log into Realty Manager, go to the "homepage editor", select "update" for each agent, and enter in the URL to their website in the newly created "Website URL" field.

And that's about it. I hope this helps. :)

If you have any questions please let me know.
