Embed a Matterport Tour

Embed a Matterport Tour

We have long had a way to add a custom video to your tour, such as a YouTube or Vimeo video.  Well, this same tool can be used to embed a Matterport 3D home scan into your tour.  Just copy and paste the embed code provided by Matterport into the Custom Video section on Edit Details.  We are working on some enhanced ways to embed content, including being able to change icons and multiple embeddable content options…so look for that soon.  In the meantime, see this example tour.

Click for Sample Matterport Tour Embed

or here is the embedded version, where you can embed your whole tour on a webpage or blog post, just like this, and easily provide all that great content on your own website!  Just click Video to see the Matterport Tour.

Note, we drew the floor plan from the top view of the home scan.  So, you can provide us the embed code and we can create the floorplan just from the scan.  As a Subscriber, that is just $30, or if you create a self service tour, it is just $69 to clean up a plan, up to 10,000 sq ft!  The photos were taken from screen shots of the tour as well, so that is why the quality is less and you can see the dots of the scan placement.

While at this time we do not officially provide the matter port Scan service, this at least allows you to embed it into the overall virtual tour and still use our platform for the print marketing (customizable brochures with the clean floor plan), tour distribution, YouTube Videos and even lead capture on the tours.   Plus you are in complete control of when and where the virtual tour shows and what people can see, since your system has supported virtual tour functionality for the last 10 years!

Full Screen HD Tour Updates

Full Screen HD Tour Updates

We have made some great updates to the Full Screen HD Tour. Updates include:

  • Speed improvements. Tours loads within seconds
  • TRUE 1920×1080 p images.  Other tour providers show smaller images which look fuzz on HD screens
  • Zoom On/Off. You can turn photo zoom off to see the whole image.
  • Works on iPad.  We use the same viewer on the iPad. It looks great!

View the video to see a quick overview

To set-up a tour using the Full Screen Tour, just go to Manage Tours, then Edit Details for the listing, and select the Full Screen Tour at the top of the page.  You can also set it as the default tour by going to Edit Profile and selecting the Full Screen Tour option.

Full Screen Tour

Introducing the new Full Screen Tour viewer!  We recently released this real estate marketing update that showcases your tours in stunning HD content.  The new viewer features huge photos – they fill the browser window on any computer and look amazing, even on the big Apple Cinema Display that is 2560 pixels wide!  Plus all of the other content like the FloorPlan, RoomPlanner, Map fill the screen too.  The video rests over the background image of the tour and plays within a window, but you can also pop that to full screen.  Note, if you want a different background image for the video, just select a different photo as the first photo in the Photo view of the tour.

If you are tired of those virtual tours that only occupy a small part of your screen, this tour viewer is for you!  We feature the content in a viewer window that is up to 75% larger than the other guys!

Works on iPad too!  If you select the Full Screen Tour for your default viewer, we also use this on the iPad.  As with other tours, everything works, except the RoomPlanner tool, which is still in Flash (note, we are working on some enhancements for that tool this fall).  All other tours will continue to use the tabbed tour on the iPad.

If you would like to see a sample, just click here.

If you want to change your tours to full screen, just create a new tour, select the Full Screen Tour option as you go through the steps, or if you want to change an existing tour, just login, go to Manage Tours and select the Edit Details link for the listing.  Note. You may need to do this for each tour as you place it for now.  We hope you enjoy this free tour enhancement!

New Elegant 2 Page Flyer Template!

We recently launched a new 2 page flyer template that has one large photo on the front and then the floorplans and more photos and text on the back (or if it is a photo tour it had more photos on the left hand side). Just select the template when you go to Edit Flyer, as shown below. Mouse over the color area and click to open the color palette that allows you to pick a color…or even enter a custom color code, so you can match it exactly to your branding.

You can show or hide various things like Price, the QR code or even the tour link. The flyer can also be uploaded or imported into xpressdocs right from your account, or you should be able to upload it to any other printing company to get professionally printed flyers.

To get started just login to your account and go to Manage Tours, then Edit Tour/Edit Flyer. Download a Sample Flyer

New Search/Filter for Corporate Accounts

We released a new simplified way to either search/filter for accounts on the Manage Tour page, or when you are placing an order.  In the past, there was a long list to select from.  Now, if you are placing orders via a corporate account, just start typing the person’s name (first or last) or their customer ID and the list of filtered agents will appear.  You can then quickly select from the list.

This is an example.  Once the list appears just mouse over the desired name and click.
