Here is a new website my wife and I just finished for a large real estate company:

Let me know your opinions please

Wow, that thing is huge! Have you developed any custom made plugins or is it done with general plugins?

Most of the functionality is with custom plugins/programming.. Although it is using my random banner plugin, multi-user plugin, and items manager (for rentals).

That's a beast for GS! Just shows that it isn't limited to the a 5-10 page website

Congrats looks really nice too!

Im looking at this site and I come with one conclusion.. Im obviously suck!
It will take a long time when I'll start to make sites like that.
BTW. whats the prices for sites in USA?
let say, simple site, standard functions and turbo-site like this one?

I would love to know how silly I am to work for 1000 zł per site ;D

hey mike,

just found a small bug when viewing the galleries..
z-index on the navigation div should be 1, as its showing in front of the images on small height screens...

Cool site though.. just shows what GS can do with a little bit of tweaking... 8)

Wow, this is big.

Have you used multiuser plugin without any modifications, or modified? I have tried to implement it, but have have many problems with logging in and out with different browsers, and also a "no" displaying at the top the the page when user had "settings" blocked.

Did you tried caching plugin?

And you should really use .htaccess (if apache) to to compress the site. It would load way faster:


Additionally, install PageSpeed to Chrome, and analyze the page. The Chrome will give you optimized images (with loss) that are significantly smaller. You could shave off some 200-300kb from download size. (Tested page: http://downingfryerealestatecompany.com/...munities/)

Also, try to combine your java scripts into 2-3 files max, this is a lot of calls you generate. You might try moving them to the bottom of the page, just before </body> so your page displays faster.

Good work!

Bump back up. I'm looking at the link and it seems it has been ported over to wordpress. Curious...

Isnt gzippng usually enabled automatically by your host.
I have never had to do more than click a checkbox in my control panel.

Yep, it's WordPress. And: An installation that goes to the limits of the perfomance of WordPress. Perhaps it will be soon migrated to another system.

very nice site

It's perhaps nice in Florida... But it is not a GetSimple CMS website. It's made with WordPress.

It uses WP now, but I remember it was a nice GS site when mikeh posted about it almost 2 years ago.

I was curious about this because i am porting over a site from Drupal to GS. Still working on it. So far so good. I was curious why you migrated over to WP from GS?
