🚗 Build Your Rental Website with the Fleetwire WordPress Plugin

Already have a WordPress site, or starting a new one? The Fleetwire plugin turns it into a car rental website in a few minutes. Connect your Fleetwire account, click Build my rental site, and you get Home, Our Fleet, FAQ, Contact and a page for every vehicle, filled with your own photos, prices and live availability. Renters book through Fleetwire's secure checkout, so your bookings, payments and agreements stay in one place.

🎯 What You Get

• Ready-made pages: Home, Our Fleet, FAQ, Contact and one page per vehicle, created as drafts for you to review.
• Seven Fleetwire blocks: vehicles grid, search, vehicle card, book button, photo gallery, vehicle details and an availability calendar.
• Twelve car rental sections: hero with date search, trust bar, fleet grid, FAQ, reviews, contact and more, ready to drop into any page.
• Always in sync: change a price or add a vehicle in Fleetwire and your website updates on its own.

🛠 Step 1: Install and Connect the Plugin

1. In WordPress, go to Plugins › Add New, search for Fleetwire, then click Install and Activate.
2. In your Fleetwire dashboard, go to Settings › Booking page › Embed & install and copy your Company ID.
3. In WordPress, open Fleetwire from the admin menu. Paste your Company ID and click Save settings.

Once you save, the plugin opens its Dashboard. It shows your connection, your progress and the next step to take.

🏗 Step 2: Build Your Rental Site

1. In the Fleetwire menu, click Build site.
2. Under Pages, keep the pages you want. If your site already has a page such as an FAQ, it's unticked and your page is used instead, so nothing is duplicated.
3. Under Vehicle pages, pick the vehicles that should get their own page (up to 12 at a time).
4. Optionally tick Use Home as my front page once I publish it and Add Home, Our Fleet, FAQ and Contact to my site menu.
5. Click Build my rental site.

The plugin creates your pages as drafts and lists them with Edit and Preview links.

🚀 Step 3: Review and Publish

When you're happy with the drafts, click Publish all draft pages at the bottom of the Build site screen and confirm. Or publish pages one by one from the editor.

If you ticked the front page option, your new Home becomes the front page as soon as it's published. Your previous home page stays live until then.

Here's what the finished pages look like. They use your theme's fonts and colors:

🧩 Step 4: Add Fleetwire Blocks Anywhere

Add Fleetwire to any page or post, not just the built ones.

1. In the block editor, click + and search for Fleetwire.
2. Pick a block. Blocks for a single vehicle ask you to choose the vehicle from a list.

To add a whole section at once, open the inserter's Patterns tab and choose Fleetwire – Car Rental:

🔎 Step 5: Filters, Sorting and Availability

Let renters filter your fleet. Select the Fleetwire Vehicles block, then in the block settings turn on Let renters filter and sort. Renters can filter by vehicle type, seats and price, and sort by price. Use Starting order to choose how the list sorts first.

Show when a vehicle is free. Add the Fleetwire Availability Calendar block to a vehicle page and pick the vehicle. Booked days are greyed out, and the dates a renter picks carry straight into checkout. Choose one or two months and change the button text in the block settings.

❓ Troubleshooting

• "Your vehicles could not be loaded": open Fleetwire › Dashboard and click Check connection. Make sure the Company ID matches Settings › Booking page › Embed & install in Fleetwire.
• A vehicle is missing: only bookable vehicles appear. Check that the listing is active, approved and not paused in Fleetwire.
• Prices or photos look out of date: they load live from Fleetwire. In the block editor, use Refresh vehicle list in the block settings.
• Using Elementor or the classic editor? Every block has a shortcode. Open Fleetwire › Shortcodes, pick a vehicle and copy the code. See Embed Fleetwire Listings on Your WordPress Site.

🌟 Your Rental Website Is Live!

Renters can now browse your fleet, check dates and book on your own website. Add vehicles in Fleetwire and build pages for them any time from Fleetwire › Build site.

🚀 Next Steps

• Customize your store: set branding, rental periods and payments in Fleetwire under Settings (Business › Branding, Booking page › Look & style and Checkout & documents › Payment collection).
