TerraSuite

Description

Built for agencies that want their website to do the work of a person rather
than be a brochure. It runs anywhere in the world: the fields that appear on a
property follow the market you set, so a UK agency sees tenure and council tax
band, a Spanish agency sees community fees and the cadastral reference, and an
American agency sees HOA fees and an MLS number.

Everything described below is in this plugin and works without paying anybody.

What it does

• Listings. Unlimited properties, for sale, to rent or short let, with
  photographs, floorplans, key selling points and every field a portal asks for.
• Search. Filters that run against a flat index, so ten filters is still one
  query. Distance from a point, or an area the visitor draws on the map.
• Maps. Self-hosted. No third-party script and no API key. An owner who does
  not want the exact position published gets a shaded circle, and the search
  still works correctly.
• Enquiries and clients. One record per person, however they arrived.
• Shortlists. A visitor saves the properties they like and comes back to
  them, with or without registering.
• Area guides, written by hand.
• CSV import and export, both ways, with a mapping screen.
• Structured data for search engines, on every property.
• Privacy tools: the export and erase requests WordPress asks plugins to
  answer, covering the records this plugin keeps.
• Your own website: pages, menus, a front page and a staff list, so an
  agency can put a site together without a page builder.

What it deliberately does not do

No login lockout, no firewall, no malware scanner, no SEO fields, no caching,
no contact-form builder. Those belong at the edge or in one plugin that does
them properly. Fifteen plugins each doing a fifth of the job is how a WordPress
site becomes slow, fragile and impossible to update.

A paid add-on exists, and is not in this plugin

TerraSuite Pro is a separate plugin sold from terrasuite.uk. It adds the
viewings calendar and bookings, the message centre, QR codes, branded
particulars, portal feed importers and de-duplication, partner agencies and
fee splits, applicant matching and alerts, Elasticsearch and the AI features.
It also adds the knowledgebase, with sixty-three articles written for clients
and for staff.

None of that code is in this plugin. Nothing here is switched off waiting to
be unlocked: what is listed above is what you get, and it does not expire.

Third-party libraries

Two libraries ship with the plugin, both unmodified release artefacts under
GPL-compatible licences:

• Leaflet 1.9.4, BSD-2-Clause, https://github.com/Leaflet/Leaflet/releases/tag/v1.9.4
• Leaflet.draw 1.0.4, MIT, https://github.com/Leaflet/Leaflet.draw/releases/tag/v1.0.4

Both are minified as published by their own projects. The non-compiled source is
at the tags above, and public/vendor/README.md records how to replace either one.

External services

The plugin contacts nothing at all unless you switch something on, and nothing
is contacted on activation or on a schedule.

Geocoding (off by default). When you enable it, the address of a property
you save is sent to the geocoding service you nominate so it can be placed on
a map. The default is Nominatim, run by the OpenStreetMap Foundation: one
request per second, and every answer cached for a year.
Service: https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org
Terms: https://operations.osmfoundation.org/policies/nominatim/

Map tiles. On a page where you place a map, the visitor’s browser fetches
map images directly from the tile service set in Property > Settings > Maps,
which defaults to tile.openstreetmap.org. The request comes from the visitor’s
browser and carries their IP address and the area of the map being viewed.

Area guides and photographs (Property > Get Content). Only when you open
that screen and press a button to download a region pack. The screen lists
what is sent before you press anything: the address of your site, and an email
address only if you choose to type one in. The packs are images and text, never
code, and they are served by us.

Google Places (off by default). If you choose to show Google reviews and
enter your own Google API key, the place identifier you set is sent to
places.googleapis.com to fetch the review text and rating shown on your site.
Service: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/web-service

YouTube (only if you paste a YouTube address on a property). The video is
embedded from www.youtube-nocookie.com, the no-cookie player, and the
thumbnail comes from i.ytimg.com. Both are fetched by the visitor’s browser
when they open that property, and carry their IP address. A link to the video
on www.youtube.com is shown beside the player.

Vimeo (only if you paste a Vimeo address on a property). The video is
embedded from player.vimeo.com and a link to vimeo.com is shown beside it.
Fetched by the visitor’s browser when they open that property, carrying their
IP address.
Terms: https://vimeo.com/terms

WhatsApp (only if a staff member has a WhatsApp number set). No request is
made: the number becomes an ordinary https://wa.me/ link, which opens WhatsApp
if the visitor clicks it.
