Applications

The inbox for buyer applications from your public form.

The Applications inbox (/admin/applications (/admin/applications in your admin)) is where buyer submissions from your public /application land.

For the full workflow, see the Receive and respond to an application walkthrough. This page is the field-by-field reference.

What you see in the inbox

  • Status filter chips — New, Approved, Waitlisted, Declined. Defaults to New.
  • Name search — filters within the current status.
  • Application rows — each row shows applicant name, when they submitted, and (if any) which kitten they applied for.

The red-dot count on the Applications nav item is the number of applications in New status.

On the detail page

  • Applicant info — name, email (clickable mailto), phone, address
  • Their situation — household type, other pets, kids, prior experience
  • Their preferences — color, sex, free-text notes
  • Interested kitten — link to the kitten's profile, with thumbnail, if they applied from a kitten page
  • Status dropdown — change it; saves on click
  • Internal notes — your private notepad; saves inline as you type
  • Email applicant button — opens your email client with their address pre-filled

What the public form contains

Your form is fixed (no per-tenant customization in MVP). Fields:

  • Name, email, phone (required)
  • Address (optional, free text)
  • Household type, other pets, kids, prior experience (multiple choice + free text)
  • Color preference, sex preference (free text)
  • Notes from applicant (free text)

If a buyer reached the form from a kitten profile, the kitten name is attached and shown on the form ("You're applying for: ...").

Rate limiting & spam

  • 8 submissions per hour per IP + per tenant. Anything beyond shows a "try again later" message.
  • A honeypot field traps the dumbest bots.
  • Cloudflare Turnstile is enabled if you've configured a site key — see [email protected] for help wiring that.
