Bring your properties into AI conversations.
HomeSelf VPR Connector connects your WordPress property pages to canonical HomeSelf Verified Property Records (VPRs). A VPR is an AI-readable property record.
Who this is for:
Hotels and direct booking sites — Make your property easier for AI assistants to understand
Property managers — Connect your portfolio to canonical VPRs for AI-mediated discovery
Real estate agencies — Turn listings into structured records AI can compare
Short-term rentals — Villas, apartments, B&Bs, and aparthotels
What this plugin does:
Displays a clean, professional property record card
Shows a trust badge linking to the canonical HomeSelf VPR
The card can optionally show a Copy AI prompt button
Includes copyable AI setup help prompts
Adds structured data references for AI and search systems
Works with Gutenberg blocks
Works with Elementor widgets (when Elementor is active)
Works with any WordPress theme via shortcodes
Fetches data from HomeSelf with smart caching
What this plugin does NOT do:
Does NOT create or manage VPRs on HomeSelf
Does NOT guarantee AI search visibility, ranking, or citation
Does NOT claim SEO benefits or booking guarantees
Does NOT verify property ownership
Does NOT require API keys or account connection
Does NOT replace your booking engine or PMS
Quick setup in 5 steps:
Create a VPR on HomeSelf
Install the WordPress plugin
Paste your VPR URL or Property ID
Add the block, widget, or shortcode to your page
Publish
Integration options:
Gutenberg Block — Add the HomeSelf VPR Card block in the WordPress editor
Elementor Widget — Use the HomeSelf VPR Connector widget (requires Elementor)
Shortcode — Paste a shortcode into any page, post, or builder
Display formats:
Card — Best for full property pages, showing complete information with optional AI prompt copy button
Badge — Best for compact trust indicators and sidebar placement
Shortcode usage:
[homeself_vpr id="uuid-or-slug" template="card|badge" theme="standard|dark" ai_record_tools="1|0" markdown_link="1|0"]
id — Property ID or slug from HomeSelf (optional if default is set)
template — card (full card) or badge (trust badge)
theme — standard (light theme) or dark (dark theme), default uses plugin setting
ai_record_tools — Show AI-readable record tools in card (default: from settings)
markdown_link — Show Markdown download link (default: from settings)
AI Discovery Metrics
The plugin introduces these concepts to help you understand AI-mediated property discovery:
AI Exposure — Your property was retrieved, considered, or evaluated by an AI system
ASR — AI Selection Rate — How often your property is selected by AI after being evaluated for a user intent
HSR — Human Selection Rate — How often people take action after arriving from an AI recommendation
Trust Score — A signal of data reliability, completeness, and evidence quality
Note: ASR and HSR reporting require HomeSelf analytics and may not be available in this connector MVP.
AI-readable property data layer
The plugin can add structured machine-readable references to the canonical HomeSelf VPR endpoints:
JSON-LD endpoint — Structured data format for AI systems and search engines
AnswerPack endpoint — Optimized for answer engines and AI assistants
Markdown endpoint — Human-readable documentation format
The VPR card can optionally show a compact AI-readable record drawer with:
– JSON-LD link
– AnswerPack link
– Markdown download link
– Copy VPR link button
These references do not guarantee AI visibility, ranking, or citation. They provide structured links that make the canonical VPR easier to locate and interpret.
The WordPress page remains your human-facing page. HomeSelf remains the canonical machine-readable VPR source.
Is this for hotels or independent properties?
Both. Hotels with direct booking websites, independent property managers, real estate agencies, and short-term rental hosts can all use this plugin. Choose your use case in settings for tailored guidance.
What is the difference between this and a booking engine?
This is NOT a booking engine. Your WordPress site remains your human-facing property page. HomeSelf provides a canonical AI-readable property record. The connector simply links the two.
Will this slow down my website?
No. The plugin uses server-side fetching with WordPress transients for caching. Data is only fetched when needed and cached according to your settings.
Does this work with Gutenberg?
Yes. The plugin includes a native Gutenberg block called “HomeSelf VPR Card” that you can add to any page or post using the block editor.
Does this work with Elementor?
Yes. When Elementor is installed and active, the plugin provides a “HomeSelf VPR Connector” widget that you can drag and drop onto any Elementor page.
Is this compatible with page builders?
Yes. The shortcode works with any page builder that supports WordPress shortcodes, including Divi, Beaver Builder, and others.
Does this work with caching plugins?
Yes. The plugin uses WordPress transients for its own caching and is compatible with page caching plugins like WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, and others.
Can I use this on multiple properties?
Yes. Install the plugin once. Add a different VPR ID to each property page using the block, Elementor widget, or shortcode. You can reuse the integration methods across multiple pages with different VPR IDs.
What happens if my VPR changes on HomeSelf?
The plugin fetches fresh data based on your cache settings. You can also manually refresh from the settings page.
Does this collect any data?
No. The plugin only fetches public VPR data from HomeSelf. No personal information is collected or stored.
Does the plugin expose machine-readable property data?
Yes. The plugin adds structured references and alternate links to the canonical HomeSelf VPR JSON-LD, AnswerPack, and Markdown endpoints. The VPR card can optionally show a compact AI-readable record drawer with actions for JSON-LD, AnswerPack, Markdown, and Copy VPR link. The WordPress page remains your human-facing page; HomeSelf remains the canonical machine-readable VPR source.
