Open-Realty is a commercial web-based real estate listing management application created in 2002. It is designed to be easy to set up and use. The project was written in the PHP programming language.
License
Until version 2.5.8 the application was under BSD license with two extra clauses.
| “ | 1. If you use Open-Realty in an application you redistribute, the complete source code for your application must be available for no more than a reasonable reproduction cost. | ” |
| “ | 5. Open-Realty is designed to produce computer files for distribution, and the original work may insert into such files text ("Attribution Text") which identifies them as having been produced by Open-Realty, Open-Realty's distributor Transparent Technologies, and the terms of or a reference to this license. Whilst the files themselves are not subject to this license, your grant to use, distribute and modify this work is conditional upon your agreement not to make any modification to the work which might cause such Attribution Text to be removed, or its insertion to be modified in a manner which is likely to make it materially less readable to those using the files in the manner in which they would customarily be used. | ” |
With version 3.0.0, which was released on June 14, 2010, the application moved to a commercial license and is partially encoded.
Support
Until September 1, 2011 the community support forums were the main source of support for Open-Realty. Since that date support has switched to a new community support portal where most support is offered by company staff rather than other users.
Extensions
Extensions (addons and templates) can be used to extend Open-Realty, adding additional features or a different design. There are three 'official addons' created by Transparent Technologies: IDXManager, which allows website owners to import properties from a Multiple Listing Service (MLS) IDX FTP repository; Transparent RETS, which operates almost identically to IDX Manager but imports images to the local website as well; and finally, TransparentMaps, which uses the Google Maps API to embed maps into an Open-Realty website.
There are also many third-party addons and templates, some of which are free[1][2] and others are paid for.[3][4]
Support
As of version 3.3, Open-Realty now requires the server to be running PHP 5.6 to 7.0. Since version 3.0 the ionCube Loader v5.1.1+ for PHP 5.6 or v6.1+ for PHP 7.0 has been required to run the encoded script.
