Guide
  1. Upload expanded petfinder-listings folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” menu in WordPress
  3. Set your Petfinder v2.0 API Key and Secret, Shelter Id, Thumbnail and Large image size under WordPress Settings -> Petfinder Listings. You will need to generate a free Petfinder API key on Petfinder here: http://www.petfinder.com/developers/api-key. You’ll need to create an account on Petfinder first if you don’t have one. You do not have to use your shelter’s Petfinder account to generate these keys. Your shelter ID is your Shelter’s Petfinder username, usually your state abbreviation plus a number.
  4. Place the shortcode [shelter_list] in a Page or Post content to display your pet list on a page. The lists includes all pets’ name, description and photos uploaded to Petfinder.
  5. If the list is not working after correctly entering all your Petfinder Listings Settings, make sure your Petfinder account is set up to share data through Petfinder’s API. To do this, log into your Petfinder account and click on the Organization Info tab. Look for the box labeled ‘Share Pet List’ and make sure all checkboxes within this box are selected: Please share my pet list with all third parties, Partner sites & Petfinder API users. (As of 12/1/2019, I do not know if these instructions need to be changed after Petfinder updated its interface. I do not have a shelter Petfinder account to view this information. If these instructions need to be changed, please contact me so I can update them. )
  6. Add the Petfinder Listings Featured Pet widget (Appearance -> Widgets) if desired.
