Once you have Upgraded to the New KW Agent Site, you have several options for editing the pages of your site. The first page visitors to your site will see is the homepage where you have the option of including a Featured Listings section. Here you can either manually select the listings that will appear here, or can select a location and criteria for automatic featured listings to appear on your homepage, with you potentially not having to manage it.

Before you start customizing your new KW Agent Site, you first need to ensure you Upgrade to the New Agent Site Experience. Once you upgrade, you will see a new navigation in the Consumer Applet, in Command, and you will be able to follow along with this article. |
To select featured listings for your KW Agent Site:
Access
1. Log in to https://agent.kw.com with your KW login credentials.
2. Click the Consumer icon, , on the left sidebar.
3. On the My Website tab, click the Edit My Website button, in the middle of the page.
4. Toward the bottom of the Website Builder Dashboard, you will see the list of default pages you can click on to edit. Click Page: Homepage.
5. Open the Listing Search section (you might have renamed this).
General Settings
1. In the Featured Properties section, first select whether you want to display featured properties or not. Use the drop-down and select either Display or Hide.
2. Next, enter a Title and Description for this section. There is default text in place, but you can replace that with your own.
- The Description is like a subtitle for the section, displaying under the Title.
Now we need to decide which listings appear. There are two choices for this section, Dynamic or Basic:
Dynamic
select a location and criteria for automatic featured listings to appear on your homepage, with you potentially not having to manage it. The best way to think about this is, you set criteria for which listings could appear, set how you want it sorted, and the system builds a list of listings within that range of criteria, with that sorting. Then, you select how many listings you want displayed in the listing carousel.
- This won't display random listings, that meet the criteria, through the carousel, but will show a consistent list of listings no matter who views the page.
1. In the Location field, click in the drop-down and use the search to select the location where you want the map pin to be located. This will combine with the Search Radius to determine where you want your dynamic featured listings to pull from.
- Using this location search, you can enter a zip/postal code, city, neighborhood, or specific address. When you select a location, the map pin will be placed at the center of the boundary for that location.
- Entering and selecting a specific address gives you the most accurate location for the map pin.
2. Select the max number of listings to display, the search radius, and how you want to sort the listings in the list.
3. In addition to the dynamic settings and filters, you can also add specific listings to the featured properties list. These will always show at the beginning of the list of featured properties, regardless of the sorting or filters set.
- When you add specific featured listings, they will stay on the list until you remove them, regardless of whether the listing has sold or been taken off market.
4. Set listing filters to control the type of listings you want to display.
- The Keywords field searches the listing description of listings, and looks for a keyword match.
Basic
This gives you full control over this section. Select the listings you want to display using the address search. No automatic changes will be made here until you edit this list later.
- When you add specific featured listings, they will stay on the list until you remove them, regardless of whether the listing has sold or been taken off market.
Save
1. Once you are ready, click Save, at the top right of the page.
