      For anyone reading this, I also posted this on the IDX Broker Mastermind Facebook group (figured some developers might be here, and some might be there) https://www.facebook.com/groups/idxbrokermastermindgroup/permalink/954365801307970/

      Glad you like the repo! I assume you were going to filter in the PHP script? OR were you thinking of filtering in the JS client side to make this more flexible?

      Hey Antonio,

      What I’m thinking of doing is this:

      * On page load, spit out any needed html for the map, then by default load all properties onto the map via AJAX
      * The function called by AJAX would first check for the featured properties stored in a 1 hour or so transient, and if not there, or if transient is expired, grab the featured properties from the API
      * Then above or overlaid on the map I’ll have some basic filtering form elements, like price, bedrooms, etc. Once they click submit button, it’ll call that same AJAX function, passing in those form field values as parameters so it can filter out only the properties it needs, and then refresh the map with the results.

      So it wouldn’t work exactly like your repo, just be inspired by it 🙂 Plus I’ve only ever used Google Maps for stuff like this, but I might try Leaflet, based on some of your code.
