Landing Pages

Landing Pages are pages that display all the units that share a common property category.  They are a way to leverage your property category information from within your PMS system.  The process of creating a landing pages begins with setting up your property categories.  

Each Landing Page has two parts. The top header which includes a photo, headline, sub headline and text. Below that, the second part includes a call-to-action button and properties from your property management software. 

Notes: 

  • Landing pages do not support ALL page builder elements.
  • You cannot display multiple property categories on a single landing page.

Example Page

  3. Under the Landing Page column move the toggle to Yes next to the category you want to create a landing page for
  4. Move to the Landing Pages tab and select the edit.
  5. Configure the page (i.e. header image, sub headline, text, and a menu link).

Custom Landing Pages

Custom Landing Pages allow you to display properties and share information about your company or the area that is helpful for your guests on the same page. You can individually select properties to display on a page regardless of how they are organized within your PMS.  You can also utilize page builder elements while displaying a hand-picked selection of your properties.  Unlike regular Landing Pages, you are able to choose a selection of properties that are not linked through a common Property Category (amenity, location, etc.) via your PMS data. 

Notes:

  • Custom landing pages are static and need to be maintained within the Rezfusion platform.
  • When adding photos make sure they meet photo size recommendations. See this page for more information: Cloud/Essential Image Sizing.
