PWDCA HLD Direct Linking
What is direct linking?
Direct linking allows you to use the URL of a dog detail page or litter detail page as a link directly to that dog or litter. You can then include those links into web pages or paste those links into email messages or social media posts.
Where is this URL?
The URL is in address bar of your web browser. You can see it in the image here:
Note that some browsers do not display the "https://" that is actually the beginning of the link. Once you copy the link, it should look like
https://pwdcahld.org/Dog_Detail?DogID=28890
Does this work the same way for the litter detail page?
Yes. When you copy the URL from the litter detail page, it should look something like
https://pwdcahld.org/Litter_Detail?LitterID=6326
Can I direct link to my people detail page?
No. To protect your privacy, we do not allow linking to people detail pages.
Is there anything else I should be aware of?
Note that a direct link will put you in the database as a non-participant, even if you do have a logon ID as a participating member. To protect your privacy and the security of the database, you will need to logon as a participating member to access all the features a participating member has access to.
