You can have your homepage show property cards right away, instead of a search form that guests must fill in first.
How to set it up. Place the Explorer shortcode in its own full-width section on your homepage, with the grid enabled and the map disabled:
[homerunner-explorer filter="1" grid="1" map="0" primary_filter_fields="date, guests"]
If your site uses the legacy tag homegest-explorer, you can keep it. Both tags render the same Explorer.
What your guests see. Property cards load immediately without requiring a search. The date and guest controls appear above the feed as a compact filter bar, and changing them updates the cards in place without a page reload.
Keep the Explorer in its own section. Put the Explorer in its own page section rather than nesting it inside a styled search-box block. Otherwise, the feed inherits that block’s width and card styling.
If you use Searchbar Pro. If your site runs the HomeRunner Toolkit with the Searchbar Pro module enabled, the same shortcode automatically shows the compact Searchbar Pro bar instead of the default filter form. On phones, this appears as a single tap-to-open search pill. For single-location sites, turn off the Where field in the Searchbar Pro settings.
