FREE Addon ORGuides for Documents and Tutorials

Some time ago I had completed an addon for a real estate firm that wanted to distribute documents within their OpenRealty admin panel for agents and what we came up with was the prelude to what we now call ORGuides. ORGuides is an addon built to provide documents and or documentation directly into the OpenRealty admin panel by site owners and developers. Many times when completing an OpenRealty website for someone the number one issue that seems to surface is the lack of effective documentation that guides a person through a step by step process in using the listings manager. Although this release is considered BETA it does give a person the general idea on how they can include the addon FREE OF CHARGE in their projects and or client websites wherein they can add documents, guides and tutorials at their discretion.

Granted, Open Realty administrators, moderators and other support members do a fine job in providing some basic outlines to the operation and administration of the listings manager, but much of the documentation available is general information. When clients of yours require more detailed documentation or even video tutorials to the effect of actually training, it would be nice to have a convenient and UN-BRANDED method to distribute those items to your clients. Because of this, we madee sure that ORGuides would super simple to modify in order to add your own links and branding as well as add your own branded documentation and tutorials as you so desire. You are 100% FREE to modify links and overall features of the addon to distribute your own documentation without further requirements or permissions from us. I ask that you leave my copyright notice in the source code if nothing else.

The full release of ORGuides will have an option that a person simply selects a check box that would then activate a feature in ORGuides that would include remotely hosted instructional video tutorials for the administration, tips and tricks in managing an Open Realty site. These tutorials are provided by a media company we have contracted with which has been generous in providing the voice over for each tutorial. Naturally these will all be free of charge. How it works is quite simple; when we release ORGuides 1.0, you select a check box for “Include Professional Tutorials” and that’s it, the tutorials will show up in your admin panel for which are available freely. This saves end users and developers from having to download the rather large video files and uploading them to each and every Open Realty project site.

This version is BETA so all the sample documents are just that, samples, you should replace them with your own files until the full release is available.
