Introduction

Chime supports creating a landing page to feature each area in your market to attract more leads using auto-populated local information. Different featured area pages have the same style with content related to that area. Creating them one by one could be a lot of work, so the CMS Tool also supports creating a group of featured area pages at a time.

Notice: The Starter package does not come with this feature. If you are on a Starter package and interested in using this feature to its full effect, please contact Support for upgrade options.

Import the Area You Need

Add a Featured Area Page or Group

Navigate to the Page Editor and click on the "Pages" option:

Click on the "+ Add Page" button:

Select the "Featured Area" page template, and our system will match the most appropriate page style for your website configuration.

Locate the area you want to add using the search bar and choose it by clicking the box next to it.

You can also click the top box to select all areas.

*Note You must first import the area in settings. Refer to: Import the Area you Need

The introductory page navigation for any areas you have chosen and saved will display under Page Editor>Pages>Hidden Navigation and can be personalized like other pages.

To display the area in the navigation bar menu, hover over the box corresponding to the area, click, and hold while moving the pointer to the related folder like "Neighborhoods".

After completing the rest of the configuration, don't forget to click the "Publish" button in the top-right of the CMS Tool in order for the changes to apply to the live website.

Edit a Featured Area Page or Group

If you want to adjust the page style, please refer to Add / Remove / Edit Blocks on Pages.

*IMPORTANT: Please note that if you edit a Featured Area page group, your modifications will apply to all Featured Areas in this group at the same time.

If you want to modify the content for the pages you just configured, you can click the "Edit" option next to the Featured Area that you want to edit:

In order to better display the effect of the configurations that you are adjusting, the CMS Tool preview uses default Featured Area demo data.

If you want to see how it applies to your actual Featured Areas, click the "preview" button on the top bar.

Featured Area Levels

The neighborhood data outlined above will NOT be available for any areas in Canada. While neighborhood pages are desirable because they bring in demographic data as well as all listings available automatically, you will still be able to build a listing page for a target neighborhood or city to share with your clients and include on your website. 

Neighborhood Page Optimizations

Multi-Level Neighborhood Selection

The data used to produce data and boundaries for neighborhoods oftentimes has multiple levels. What this means is that there are multiple definitions for a neighborhood using the exact same name. With this update, you can toggle between them using the icon next to their name and this will result in the boundary displaying at the left adjusting accordingly. This icon will only appear when there are multiple options for that same neighborhood name.

Adding a Listing Page

First of all, be sure that you have "Canada" selected under CMS > Settings > Basic Info > Country. 

1. Go to Page Editor> Click the +Add Folder button on the left panel. Rename the new page that will be added under the Hidden navigation list.

2. Create your listing page by going to Editor> Pages > +Add page. Choose Listing on the Page Template tab and hit the Next button.

3. Type the page name, you can use the neighborhood/city name.

4. Insert the new page into your Neighborhood folder by dragging the 3 lines.

5. Edit the page by clicking the pencil icon on the upper right. Go to the left panel option to add a custom listing filter then save.
