Descripció
Built for breeders, kennel clubs, and dog registries who are tired of managing pedigree data in scattered Excel files, Facebook albums, or expensive proprietary software.
Spotmaniac Dog Pedigree turns your WordPress site into a structured, searchable, public-facing catalog of your dogs. Each dog gets a dedicated page with photo, registration data, parents, and full breeding info. Visitors browse a responsive catalog with filters. You manage everything from the familiar WordPress admin.
No page creation. No theme conflicts. No technical setup. Activate the plugin, save permalinks once, and your catalog is live at /dogs/.
🐶 Why Spotmaniac Dog Pedigree?
- Designed for dogs, not generic CPTs. 22 purpose-built fields cover every detail a breeder needs – name, sex, color, dates, registration numbers, microchip, tattoo, club number, breeder, owner, titles, health, description, and more.
- Looks great out of the box. Responsive card grid catalog, clean single-dog page with photo hero, color-coded badges, and a Litter Mates section that auto-builds from parent links.
- Owner self-service. Logged-in owners can update their own dogs’ photos, titles, and basic info via a secure REST endpoint – no admin access needed.
- Theme-agnostic. Works with any well-built theme. Override any template by copying it to your theme folder.
- Privacy-respecting. No external tracking, no telemetry, no calls home. Your data stays in your database.

PMF
-
Do I need to create pages?
-
No. The
/dogs/archive and individual dog pages are created automatically by the plugin. Just save permalinks once after activation. -
Can I change the URL prefix?
-
Yes. Go to Dogs Settings URL Prefix. After changing, go to Settings Permalinks and click Save to refresh the rewrite rules.
-
Does it work with my theme?
-
Yes. The plugin uses minimal, scoped CSS and inherits your theme’s typography, form styles, and overall design language. We’ve tested with Twenty Twenty-Five, Twenty Twenty-Four, Astra, Kadence, GeneratePress, Hello Elementor, and the OceanWP framework. If you want full control, override any template from your theme folder.
-
How do I add dropdown options like colors?
-
Go to Dogs Settings Dropdown Field Options. Use the + Add button to define options for Color, Size, and Breeding Status. You can also create custom dropdown fields beyond the built-in ones – perfect for breed-specific traits or club-specific data.
-
Can I edit dogs from the front end?
-
Yes – the REST API supports an owner-update endpoint that lets a logged-in owner edit a limited set of fields (photo, titles, color, call name, description) on dogs they own. The Pro add-on adds a full frontend submit + edit form for breeders.
-
Can I import existing data?
-
The free plugin supports manual entry. The Pro add-on adds CSV import that auto-creates parent stubs by name, so you can import an entire kennel’s pedigree in one upload.
-
Is the plugin GDPR-friendly?
-
Yes. The plugin doesn’t collect or transmit any personal data. It stores only the data you enter into your own database. No external services, no telemetry, no cookies set by the plugin itself.
-
Does it support multilingual sites?
-
Yes. The plugin is fully translation-ready (POT file included). All admin and frontend strings can be translated. You can pair it with WPML, Polylang, or TranslatePress.
-
Can I show only specific dogs on a page?
-
Use
[dogped-catalog]for the full filterable catalog or[dogped-featured count="6"]for a featured grid. Both shortcodes accept attributes for fine-tuning. -
How do I uninstall cleanly?
-
Deactivating the plugin leaves all data intact (so you can reactivate without losing anything). Deleting the plugin via the Plugins screen removes all dog posts, meta, options, and transients – clean uninstall, no orphan data.
-
Where can I get support?
-
Use the Support tab on this page (community forum) for general questions. Pro customers receive priority email support.
