Hello, Bricks team!
I am building a real estate portfolio on https://conrad.immo using the plugin, “WP-ImmoMakler”. It pulls in real estate property feeds from real estate software, which is placing the data in a directory on the server via FTP as zip files. The plugin crawls that folder and converts the delivered data into a CPT called, “Immobilie” (real estate property). They use a protocol called, “OpenImmo” for this.
The CPT is basically a huge collection of custom fields and, at the bottom, a section called, “image attachments”. I’ve never seen this in WordPress, so I’m thinking it’s a custom thing designed specifically for this CPT:
When building a template for that CPT, I can use the custom fields as dynamic data, but I can see no way to get to those attachments so I can display them as a gallery. The CPT circumvents the WP media library. The images are placed in an “uploads” subdirectory like this instead:
/wp-content/uploads/immomakler/attachments/d5355182a4d7f4b5c756916115249527/
The WP-ImmoMakler support team pointed me to this article:
They’re wondering if Bricks Ultimate’s “Product Galleries” query can be used as a loop to collect the attached images and feed them into a gallery. The point’s moot though since Bricks Ulitmate isn’t currently available for sale.
I’m thinking perhaps there’s another way to do this with a loop? Or a PHP snippet? Alternately, @higgin said in this post he was using a third-party gallery plugin to collect images into galleries, though his situation sounded a bit different than mine:
Any ideas would be highly appreciated.
