Property Types

Overview

Property types allow the site owner to categorize property types into appropriate sections. Nested property types (sub-property types) are supported in JomEstate. JomEstate comes with a property type named "UNCATEGORISED" which is the default setting. This property type will list properties which are not attached to any property type (same function as the default Joomla categories system).
