The full version of the short description on the product page: every feature, how each screen is used step by step, all limits and the delivery details.
All features
The functions listed were tried in local tests; the live demo sends no notifications, and user and password actions are locked.
- Filters for species, age group, city and district, size, gender, temperament and neutered, vaccinated and microchipped, plus search, a “Found a home” list and a permanent address for every listing
- Listing management: listings with photos; the statuses waiting, live, foster needed, adopted and hidden; every status change is written, with who made it and when, to a status history shown only in the panel
- Health history: vaccines, parasite treatment and vet check-ups are recorded with their dates and shown on the public listing page; a wrong entry is removed with “Yanlış girdim, sil” (I entered it wrong, delete)
- Adoption, foster and volunteer applications are taken with data-protection consent (KVKK) and get an SB-YYYY-NNNN number; the applicant checks the status with the number and the last four digits of the phone; the adoption form also asks about the landlord’s permission, whether everyone at home agrees, how escape-proof the home is and how many hours a day the animal would be alone, and the answers show in the application details under “Ev ortamı” (home setting)
- The manager changes an application’s status, writes a note only the manager sees and sees the history; an adoption agreement is filled in from a template and printed
- A listing posted by a visitor goes to an approval queue and appears on the site once the manager puts it live
- Favourites are kept in the browser; a listing is shared as a ready WhatsApp message or its link is copied; a printable A4 poster with a QR code is made for the public address
- Manager and volunteer roles: a volunteer manages listings and applications and never sees the settings or the users
- Site name, main colour, WhatsApp phone and texts are changed in the panel; the association’s bank (IBAN) details and a needs list are written there too and shown on the public “Nasıl yardım edebilirsiniz?” (how can you help?) page (no payment is taken on the site, donations go straight to the bank); listings and applications are downloaded as CSV, and a listing list is imported from Excel or CSV with a preview and can be taken back
- For a new application or listing: a badge in the panel, a free phone notification (Web Push) and an e-mail; no SMS or WhatsApp message is sent
- A setup wizard and a step-by-step setup guide, a help box on every screen, a backup download from the panel; it installs on a phone or computer
Screen by screen: how it is used
The demo’s interface is in Turkish and there is no English version; only the captions and explanations on this page are in English.
- Who uses it?
- A visitor who wants to adopt a pet, and the association or volunteer group (manager and volunteer) that publishes the listings and reviews the applications.
- Where do they start?
- The visitor goes from the home page to the listings. The association side starts from the panel sign-in; in the demo the buttons in the “Demo hesapları” (demo accounts) box sign in without a password.

The demo sign-in box

- What do they see at the end?
- The visitor gets an application number and checks the status with it. The association follows the application, with its status, in the panel; a listing posted by a visitor goes live once the manager presses “Yayına al” (put live).
- What is it good for?
- The association follows applications in one panel instead of hunting through e-mail and messages, and the listings stay tidy and searchable.
Everything that is not included, and all limits
- Not delivered to a client and not used by a real association or platform; it has been run only on my own demo hosting account (PHP 8.3). The delivery package is ready and checked with SHA-256 (details: the “Delivery and sales status” section).
- The live demo is public, runs on sample data and resets at the start of every hour; no e-mail or notification leaves it, and user and password actions are locked.
- There is no card donation or payment, no SMS or WhatsApp automation, no e-signature, no map or distance search, no automatic posting to other sites, no microchip registry network, no automatic matching and no membership system; a visitor opens no account and follows an application with its number.
- E-mail goes through the hosting’s mail() function and its arrival is not certain; the phone notification is a quick heads-up and its delivery is not certain either.
- Add to Home Screen on a real phone, Safari and Firefox, real notification and e-mail delivery and other hosting have not been tried.
- Listings, people and numbers are sample data, and photos are from Unsplash. The interface is in Turkish; there is no English version.
