# Why OwnerRez Requires Enabling the WordPress Plugin and Integrated Websites

## Overview

To ensure accurate and complete property data synchronization between **OwnerRez** and **HomeRunner**, both the **OwnerRez WordPress Plugin** and **Integrated Websites** must be enabled.

Without these enabled, OwnerRez does not expose certain property-level data through its APIs.

---

## What Gets Synced (and Why It Matters)

Enabling the WordPress Plugin and Integrated Websites allows HomeRunner to sync the following critical data:

- **Amenities** – Required for feature listings and filters
- **Bed types** – Needed for accurate sleeping arrangements
- **Total bed count** – Used in guest capacity calculations
- **Property descriptions** – Displayed on listing and detail pages
- **House rules** – Important for guest transparency and compliance
- **Property photos** – Essential for listing presentation and conversions

## Summary

If these settings are not enabled in OwnerRez:

- Property data sync will be incomplete
- Listings may appear broken or inaccurate
- Guest experience and booking conversions can be negatively impacted
