Where to start

Go to My pages (from the user menu). There you can add animals and open each animal’s page. On the animal page you’ll see tabs: Overview (calendar, events, diary, documents, vaccinations), Pedigree, and Information. All entries below are created from the animal’s page.

Sharing animals with other members

You can share an animal with another registered member (e.g. a family member or co-owner) so they can view and manage it—add events, weights, diary entries, vaccinations, documents, and bookings—without being the owner. The owner keeps full control: only the owner can delete the animal, change its main details, or revoke access. Subscription and limits are based on the owner’s account.

As owner – sharing an animal:

• Open the animal’s page (one of your animals).
• Click Share your animal. A modal opens.
• Enter the other member’s username (or email) and your own password to confirm, then submit. They will then see this animal under Assigned animals on their My pages.
• Under Shared with X members you can see who has access and use Remove access to revoke it at any time.

As a member who was given access – assigned animals:

• On My pages, the Assigned animals section lists animals that others have shared with you. It appears below My animals and above the calendar.
• Open an assigned animal to view and manage it: add or edit events, diary entries, weights, vaccinations, documents, and bookings. You cannot delete the animal or change who the owner is; you can only edit or delete entries that you yourself created.

Weight

Weight entries let you track your animal’s weight over time.

• On the animal page, click the Weight button (above the tabs). You’ll go to the weight page for that animal.
• Click Add weight to open the form.
• Enter the date and time of the measurement, the weight value, and optional notes. The unit (kg or lbs) depends on your profile settings.
• Submit the form. The new entry appears in the table and on the weight chart.

You can edit or delete entries from the table. The chart can be filtered by time range (e.g. 1 week, 1 year).

Events

Events are things that happened on a specific date, such as vet visits, vaccinations, or medications.

• Open the animal’s page and stay on the Overview tab.
• In the Events section, click Add event.
• Fill in the event date, type (e.g. vet visit, vaccination), title, description, and optionally attach one image (see “Image upload” below).
• Save. The event appears in the Events table and on the calendar (as an event dot).

You can also add an event from the calendar: click a date, then choose “Add event” and the date will be pre-filled. Events can be edited or deleted from the table.

Bookings

Bookings are future appointments or planned activities (e.g. vet appointment, show).

• On the Overview tab, use the calendar: click a date, then choose Add booking (or open the day details and add a booking there).
• Enter date, time, title, location, and optional notes. You can set a reminder so the system sends an email reminder before the booking.
• Save. The booking appears on the calendar as a booking and in the day view.

Bookings can be edited or deleted from the calendar day view. Reminders are sent by email (if SMTP is configured) at the scheduled time.

Vaccinations

Vaccination records store vaccine name, date, and optional next due date.

• On the animal’s Overview tab, find the Vaccinations section.
• Click Add vaccination.
• Enter vaccine name, vaccination date, and optionally the next vaccination/expiration date.
• You can turn on Reminder and set a Reminder date (e.g. the expiration date). When you save, the system automatically creates an event on that date (e.g. “Vaccine expires”). The event appears on the calendar and in the Events list, and is included in the daily event reminder emails if those are enabled.
• Save. The vaccination appears in the Vaccinations table.

You can edit or delete vaccinations from the table. If you delete the reminder event from the Events list, the vaccination’s reminder is turned off. Use “Add vaccination” for each vaccine or booster.

Documents

Documents are files (e.g. PDF, images) attached to the animal, such as health certificates or insurance papers.

• On the Overview tab, go to the Documents section.
• Click Add document.
• Enter a title and choose a file to upload. Supported formats typically include PDF and common image types (see “Image upload” for image rules).
• Save. The document appears in the Documents table; you can open or delete it from there.

Documents are stored per animal and are only visible to you when you are logged in.

Diary entries

Diary entries are dated notes (past or future) with optional text and one image.

• On the Overview tab, find the Diary section.
• Click Add diary entry.
• Enter the date, content (required), and optionally attach one image.
• Save. The entry appears in the Diary table and on the calendar.

Diary entries can be edited or deleted from the table. Image upload for diary works like events (see below).

Image upload

Images can be uploaded in these places:

• Animal photo – when adding or editing an animal (My pages → Add animal or edit an animal). One main image per animal.
• Event image – one image per event (in the Add/Edit event form).
• Diary image – one image per diary entry (in the Add/Edit diary form).

Accepted formats: JPEG and PNG. The form usually accepts image files (e.g. image/jpeg, image/png).

Size and processing: The server may accept uploads up to about 10 MB per form. Uploaded images are then processed: they may be resized (e.g. max width/height 1200 px) and compressed (e.g. to around 300–400 KB) to save space and speed up loading. Very large images will be reduced automatically; you don’t need to resize them yourself, but smaller files upload faster.

Tips: Use clear, well-lit photos. For animal profile photos, a square or near-square image works best. For events and diary, one relevant photo per entry is enough.
