You may like to print this page
off to have to hand to help guide you through the "Add/Edit your
property" process. We have tried to make these instructions as
"user-friendly" as we can, so we really hope they help!
Click on the "Members'
Login" link (fifth box down on home page, right hand side) - this will take you
straight to the "Interprop Property Manager" screen where you can
begin the process of adding your property.
OR
Click on the "Interprop
User Guide" link on the left hand navigation bar then
Click on the "Add/Edit
your property" link which then appears on the navigation bar - this
will take you to the "Interprop Property Manager" screen where you
can begin the process of adding your property.
You should
now be at the "Interprop Property Manager" screen
If this is your FIRST
visit to Interprop's Property Manager, you need to log in to add your
property. Enter a "User Name", a "Password" and your
"Email address" in the boxes provided under the heading "Are
you a New User adding your first property?". Your User Name and
Password can be anything you like, but should be unique to you, and easy for
you to remember. These three boxes must be filled in completely, otherwise
you will not be able to proceed. Click the "Go" button once
you have filled them in.
The NEXT time you
visit Interprop to either add another property or edit an existing one, you
need only enter your User Name and Password in the boxes under the "Existing
Users, Log In Here" section and click the "Go"
button to take you on to the next stage.
If you ever forget your User
Name or Password, we can remind you of them. All you need to do is enter
your email address in the "Forgotten your User Name or Password?"
section, click the "Go" button and, if we know you, a
reminder will be emailed to you immediately
You will
now find yourself at a page headed "Please enter your address details
using the form below".
Now you need to enter in all
the details that you are asked for - taking particular care to ensure that
the ones with a red
asterisk (*) next to
them are filled in. Important - we do not allow you to change these details
once you have entered them. This is a fraud prevention measure. Please make
sure that you enter your details correctly. If you need any changes made in
the future, please email Interprop from the "Contact us"
page. When you are certain that the details are correct, click the blue
"Next" button at the bottom of the form.
After
clicking the "Next" button, you will find yourself at the
"Interprop Property Manager: Property Listing" screen and,
under the words "Property Listing" it will tell you that "you
currently have no properties listed".
To add the
details of your first property, click the blue "Add New" button
at the bottom of this page.
You should
now be at the Interprop Property Manager "Add New Property (form 1 of
4): Basic Details" page.
Here you need to enter the
"Basic Details" of your property which will appear on the
Property Search Page - and please ensure that all boxes marked in red and
with an asterisk (*)
are completed so that you can continue on to the next stage.
The first box is a "Summary
description of your property" and you may use up to ten words to
describe it, i.e., 200 Year Old Rural Farmhouse in Andalucia, for example.
It is also a good idea to enter your own reference number for this property
here as well, just for ease of reference when you receive an enquiry about it.
For "Property Type",
please select the most appropriate property type from the drop down menu.
Similarly, for "Country
where your property is located", please select the country from the
drop down menu.
You are
then invited to enter some "Contact Details".
These are optional and will
only appear on your property detail page if you enter them - only enter
them, therefore, if you are happy to have people contact you by telephone
about your property, as well as by email. We actually prefer you to
leave this blank so that you will always have a written (email) record of
all enquiries received, and you can monitor how well Interprop is working
for you.
Click the
blue "Next" button at the bottom of the form to continue.
You will
now find yourself at the Interprop Property Manager "Add New Property
(form 2 of 4): Accommodation" page.
As before, please ensure
that all boxes with red headings and asterisks (*)
are completed in full before you go onto the next stage.
You may choose a "Region
where your property is located" from the drop down menu if there
are some regions that have been previously added by other users. If your
particular region is not shown in the drop down menu, please enter it in the
"or type" box.
Sleeping Facilities -
please choose your answers from the drop down menus. If you have cot
facilities available, please check the box, and if you have any other
sleeping facilities that are not covered in the drop down menus, please
enter them in the "Other Sleeping Facilities (e.g., Sofa Bed)"
box that is provided, separated by commas.
Bathroom Facilities -
please choose your answers from the drop down menus
Living Accommodation
- Please choose your answers from the drop down menus and, if you have
"Other Living Accommodation (e.g., Office)" that are not
covered by the drop down menus, please enter them in the box provided,
separated by commas.
Miscellaneous Information
- this information is optional (but very helpful for the visitor to the site
when planning his trip), so please consider completing it. It can only
enhance your property detail page. Obviously, the Pets Allowed and
Smoking Allowed fields are not necessary, however!
When you have completed this
form, please check it over and click the blue "Next" button
to continue.
You will
now be at the Interprop Property Manager "Add New Property (form 3 of
4): Facilities" page.
Please tick all boxes which
apply to your property, adding any that are not mentioned in the list in the
"Other" boxes as you go along. Any information entered in
the "Other" boxes should be separated by commas.
Additional Information
- you now have up to 1,000 characters to describe your property in full, in
your own choice of words. Try to keep it concise and interesting.
Click the blue "Next"
button when you have finished.
Now you
will be taken to the Interprop Property Manager "Add New Property (form
4 of 4): Rental Details" page.
FOR PROPERTY SALES - On this page you can enter

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS
DATABASE IS USED FOR VARIOUS OTHER BUSINESSES AS WELL, SO PLEASE READ THE
FOLLOWING CAREFULLY IN ORDER THAT THE CORRECT PRICE FOR YOUR PROPERTY IS
ENTERED:
In the Booking Deposit

what may be included in the price, etc.
Then, please

all other fields and

or
FOR PROPERTY RENTALS
- On this page you can enter

Click the "Finish"
button to continue - please ensure you click this button ONCE
ONLY, and then wait
for the next screen to appear.
The next
screen should be headed "Interprop Property Manager - Congratulations!"
This means that your
property details have now been added to our database and will be available
to visitors to our site within 24 hours.
Most importantly, it shows
"YOUR PROPERTY
REFERENCE NUMBER"
which should be quoted to us in any correspondence and which can be used by
you in other forms of advertising - See "Advertisers' guide" for
more details on this.
On this page, you now need
to select the advertising period required, by clicking on the blue "Buy"
button next to the period and price of your choice. The payment(s) you
select are added to your 'shopping basket'. When you have finished adding
advertising payments for the property (or properties) you add to our
database, you may use the checkout to make all the payments in one go.
Once you
have clicked the "Buy" button on this page, you will be taken
to the next screen from where you will be able to either:
add your photographs
add another property
go to checkout or
return to the Property
Manager
We suggest that here you
"go to checkout" to complete the payment procedure and then
add your photographs at a later stage by logging into the "Add/Edit
your property" section again with your User Name and Password,
since it is probably unlikely that you have your pictures to hand at this
stage.
If, however, you would like
to advertise another property at this time, simply click on the "Add
Another Property" link to be returned to the Property Manager
forms, where you will be able to begin the process all over again.
When you
click on the "Go to Checkout" link you will, first of all, be
asked to confirm your name and address details. These will, for the most part,
be the same as the details you entered on the first screen, but please change
them if you need to.
After
making sure that this form is correctly completed, please click the blue "Next"
button at the bottom of the form.
Now you will be taken
to a screen which will tell you your Order Number and your Order Total,
and will enable you to make your payment by credit card, or by cheque -
just follow the instructions.
"On-Line Card
Clearance" - choose this option to enter your credit card details
for on-line payment processing through our on-line secure payment gateway
"Send Payment
Separately" - choose this option to print off your order and post
us a cheque - full details will appear on the screen
Clicking on "On-Line
Card Clearance" will take you to our secure server where you will
need to enter all the details asked for about your credit card - you can pay
in either US Dollars, Euros or GB Pounds Sterling.
When you have completed your
credit card details, click on the "Make Payment" button,
which will take you to a confirmation page giving you the details of your
payment. We suggest that you print this page off for reference purposes.
Next, click on the "End
Worldpay Session" button to ensure that you end the payment
process, close the window which appears and then click the "Click
here to continue" link at the bottom of the page.
This will return you to the
"Advertisers' guide" page, and you can continue surfing to
your heart's content
When all
this has been done your property details will have been received by Interprop,
together with your payment, and we can then go into our Administration site and
activate it for you - normally within 24 hours. You will receive an email from
us as soon as your property is activated.
To add
your photographs at a later date, simply log into the Interprop Property Manager
and enter your User name and Password. This will take you directly to your
"Property Listing" page and you need click the "Click
image to edit property details" link or actually click onto the image
so that you can add them.
This will
take you to a screen showing you all the data we currently hold for the selected
property and you will be able to edit certain parts of the data by clicking the
appropriate link at the bottom of the screen.
To
add your photographs, click on the "Update Photos" link at the
bottom of the page and this will take you to a further screen which describes in
full how to get your photographs to us. If you have any problems at all at this
stage, please email the photographs to us at info@interprop.com
and we will upload them for you.
If
you have now finished editing your property details and are happy with the
changes you have made click on the "click here to return to the Property
Manager" link at the bottom of the page.
This will return you to the Property Manager page, where you can edit your other
properties (if necessary, and if you have more than one) in the same way.
When you have completely finished your session in the Property Manager, we ask
you to click the blue "Log Off" button at the top right hand
side of the screen to end your session completely.
Scroll down to the middle
section of the next screen headed "Existing Users, Log In Here"

then Enter your Password (if
you cannot remember what your user name and password are, please use the
next section and enter your email address and a reminder will be emailed to
you immediately)

section to your complete satisfaction, remembering to click the
"Confirm Changes" button when you are happy with your changes
When you are completely
finished, return to the original "Property Manager" screen by
clicking the "Property Manger" link at the top left hand side of
the screen and then log off.

Scroll down to the middle
section of the next screen headed 'Existing Users, Log In Here' and enter
your User Name and Password, Click the 'Go' button. (if you cannot

At the next screen, click
the image of the property you wish to purchase more advertising for.
When your details appear,
scroll down to the bottom and click the Purchase Advertising' link
On the next page, choose the
period of advertising you wish to buy. This will then be added to your
'shopping basket' and you will then need to 'check out' from your Property
Manager page.
Do this by clicking the
'Property Manager' link at the top left hand side of the screen, then
scrolling down to the bottom of the next screen and clicking the blue
'checkout now' button.
You will then be led through
the procedure of paying for your advertising by credit card.
When you are completely
finished, return to your 'Property Manager' screen and log off.

will automatically be activated when the current advertising period ends.
