- max_input_time = 600
- upload_max_filesize = 30M or more

IMPORTANT: If your server doesn't meet the above mentioned requirements, the following errors can appear:
- listings imported without data (empty),

Once connected to MLS via RETS, additional tabs will become available. Please click on second tab - Fields configuration. Here you need to select resource, class and entity values in drop-down lists.
Important: Fields maping is the most important part of the plugin configuration. Please do not hurry up with it and do everything carefully.
If you map MLS fields to the wrong Estatik field and will make import, these fields will be imported wrong and as result you will not find he required information about property. So please follow our instructions or order additional service and we will set it up for you.
When we need to import properties, we select Resource: property. Field Classes will provide us with a list of property types - Residential, Lots/Land/Farm, Multi-Family, Commercial.
It is important to select the required fields as different class will give you different list of fields. Let's select Residential class and Entity - Property.
Click Submit button. You will get a drop-down list of MLS fields available for the Resource Property, and class Residential. Use quick access search and type the fields. Please note that the MLS fields can be named differently and if you are uncertain whether you need this field or not, omit it and do not add. There can be numerous empty fields and it is not necessary to add them to your website.
So you need to add MLS field and map it to Estatik field like displayed below:
Below is the list of most common MLS fields and corresponding Estatik fields:
MLS field = Estatik field:
MLS number = Property MLSID
Building Name = Title
MLS Number = Large photo & Images
Current price = Price
Beds Total = Bedrooms
Baths Full = Bathrooms
Public Remarks = Description
Sqft Total = Area
Lot Size Area = Lot size
Foreign Country Or State = Country
State Or Province = State
City = City
Amenities = Amenities
Property Type = Type
Status = Status .. etc.
Please note that there are some crucial fields that must be assigned correctly. They are - MLS Number - without it being properly assigned as indicated above, you will not be able to make import properly.

Errors
1. Manual Import errors - no listings imported
If Estatik Premium version was installed and activated correctly, but when you try to import listings manually you get nothing, please make sure that you configured major fields (Property MLS ID) correctly. Check out our Documentation or please contact us and we will check that.
2. Error 401
If you have Error 401, please check if you entered your RETS credentials properly. 401 error means incorrect login/password.
3. Images for listings are not imported
If the images are shown for every listing, but they are not imported with all the other listing data, please disable htpasswd popup on your website. The script that uploads images gives the status 403 - unauthorized and the prevents images from importing.
4. Error "String could not be parsed as XML"
If RETS credentials are correct, but you still cannot connect to MLS server - the click on Connect button results in "String could not be parsed as XML" error, please, check curl version on the server. It should be 7.50 or higher, and the issue will be resolved.
5. Can not load resources and classes
If you have connected successfully but when you go to Fields Configuration there no resources can be loaded,
please contact your MLS provider with request to check your account permissions (you can refer to the error: GetMetadata' tried but no valid endpoint was found. Did you forget to Login()? ) or make sure that you do not have additional agent username and agent username password that should be entered in Advanced Settings:

Premium version options
1. Free Theme Setup
We offer Trendy, Native or Project theme – one of them you can choose within Premium
Package and we will setup and configure the chosen theme so they will look like Trendy demo site, Native demo site or Project demo site.
Free Theme Setup doesn't include Estatik Premium version configuration. We offer documentation for that and also additional service which costs $98. You can find details here.
2. White label option
Premium version has a White label option. Read more about it here, please.
3. CRM option
There is no such option on our plugin and we do not offer integration with any of these plugins. Estatik has agents (users who registered to become agents and can submit listings via frontend), users (simple visitors) and admin.
4. Search function
With Estatik Premium you will be able to make search listings that were imported from your MLS provider using Estatik Search widget. So the search results will be based on MLS data.
5. Number of listings for import and update
There are no limitations in the quantity of listings for importing or updating in the plugin but WordPress itself can handle smoothly up to 5,000 listings. If there are more listings the website can become slower or show errors.
6. Synchronization
The amount of listings available for updating depends on how many listings you have. If you have thousands of listings and your server allows to update 5 listings per request (each 2 mins), it means that every hour you will get updated 150 listings or 1800 per day.

RETS access & MLS providers
Please, read the following notes carefully to avoid mistakes and misunderstandings!
1. RETS credentials
To obtain RETS credentials, you need to contact your MLS provider and figure out if they offer this type of integration or not and what must be done to get it. Please check other details about MLS integration service here.
2. RETS access
Estatik is not a vendor and we do not provide customers with RETS. That is why we write on our website that you should buy the Premium plugin only after you have RETS credentials. Usually it takes some time to obtain credentials. MLS also may charge for it. All of MLS providers fees are payable by customer.
3. MLS coverage
Estatik Premium covers any MLS provider, which offers organic integration via RETS and grants RETS credentials for that, and doesn't have any strict limitations (amount of requests per day etc.). It works via RETS connector which is a standard technology in any of these MLS.
4. Multiple MLS providers
You can enter and use several RETS profiles and enter credentials for each of them in Estatik Premium. But in this case you will need to make all configuration separately for every profile.
5. Usage on several websites
You can use Estatik Premium plugin on several websites and with different RETS credentials. There are no limitations for it.
