July 7: Release Notes
The following items were released July 7:
“Interior Row/Townhouse” now available in Listing Management and Search.
Based on your feedback, “Row/Townhouse” has been relabeled “Interior Row/Townhouse” under Structure Type. This change will make it easier to differentiate an interior row/townhouse from an end unit in Bright. Learn more here.

New option for setting field defaults in Listing Management.
When entering a new listing, you may find yourself entering the same information for certain fields time and time again. To allow you to save values for these fields without having to manually enter them across listings, you can now set defaults for the following fields in Listing Management:
- Listing Agreement Type
- Listing Service Type
- Co-List Agent
- Photo Options
- Seller Authorizes Listing on the Internet
- Seller Authorizes Address on the Internet
- Seller Authorizes AVM
- Seller Authorizes Consumer Comments
- Showing Requirements
- Showing Method
- Showing Contact Type
- Showing Contact Name
- Showing Contact Phone
- Lockbox Type
Please note, you do not have to set default values for any field, and are able to change your selections at any time. Learn more here.

You can now publish listings directly from the photo upload screen.
To reduce the likelihood of inadvertently losing photos when listings are not published, we have added a Publish button for you to publish your listing directly from the photo upload screen. This button will work exactly as it does on the full edit form in Listing Management. If your listing has incomplete or invalid fields, the button will be disabled. If your listing is ready to be published after you have uploaded or updated existing photos, clicking “Publish” will publish both the photos and the full listing.
