My Trail Camera

The complete trail camera management and protection system for WordPress.

Whether you have a handful of trail cameras or a whole fleet, My Trail Camera keeps everything organized — models, locations, battery status, accessories, and total investment. And if a camera goes missing, the built-in honeypot trap gives you a real chance to get it back.

Camera Management

  • Register trail cameras with model, location, GPS coordinates, deploy date, and accessories
  • 80+ built-in camera profiles (Browning, Bushnell, Reconyx, Spypoint, Stealth Cam, Wachman, OXE, and 20+ more brands) with autocomplete search
  • Battery life estimation based on camera profile, power type, trigger count, recording mode (photo/video), and video resolution (480p–4K)
  • Track accessories and security measures — batteries, SD cards, locks, metal boxes, GPS trackers (AirTag, Tile, Samsung SmartTag), SIM cards — with total gear value in €
  • Serial number and IMEI tracking per camera
  • Camera status tracking: active, stored, stolen (with date), tested, recovered, police reported
  • Days-in-field counter with planned deployment duration and progress indicator
  • Power type support: lithium, alkaline, solar panel, external power
  • WordPress dashboard widget with active/stolen counts, low battery warnings, and 24-hour detection summary
  • Admin bar quick access with recent detection count badge
  • Import/export all camera data and settings as JSON backup

Anti-Theft: Honeypot Trap on Your SD Card

Trail camera theft is a real problem. My Trail Camera fights back — place hidden HTML files on your SD cards, and when a thief opens one on their computer or phone, you get their IP address, GPS location, and device fingerprint. Evidence you can hand straight to the police.

  • Works with any trail camera that uses SD cards — no special hardware needed
  • Generate a ZIP with trap files that mimic real camera file naming (manufacturer-specific)
  • Captured data: IP address, GPS coordinates with accuracy, browser fingerprint (OS, screen resolution, timezone, CPU cores)
  • Real-time email alerts to multiple recipients — immediate notification on every detection
  • Recovery chance scoring (0–100%) based on GPS accuracy, IP data, time factor, and device fingerprint — with recommended next steps
  • Theft detection dashboard with per-camera filtering, detection history, and device analysis
  • Owner test mode — open the trap file yourself to verify it works before deployment
  • Works offline: trap files use GET requests for file:// protocol compatibility — data is sent as soon as the thief’s device connects to the internet
  • Public shortcode [mtcam_stolen_cameras] — display stolen camera cards so your community can help
  • Secured with HMAC signature verification, nonce replay protection, device ID validation, and multi-layer rate limiting (per-IP, per-file, per-device)

Location Reviews & Scoring

  • Rate your trail camera locations after each deployment (activity, wildlife interest, human disturbance, satisfaction)
  • Automatic scoring algorithm: A (75+), B (50–75), C (25–50), D (under 25)
  • Interactive Leaflet map with color-coded markers — find your best spots at a glance
  • Statistics: total reviews, average score, total monitoring days, total recordings

Settings & Tools

  • Email notification configuration with multiple recipients
  • IP source selection: direct, Cloudflare (CF-Connecting-IP), or reverse proxy (X-Forwarded-For)
  • Public widget visibility controls — choose exactly which fields to show for stolen cameras
  • Privacy policy auto-contribution — automatically adds data collection disclosure to your site’s privacy policy
  • Maintenance tools: orphan record cleanup, manual data deletion, database optimization
  • Import/export cameras, settings, and location reviews as JSON
  • Onboarding checklist for first-time setup
  • KML export for Google Earth

Privacy

The trap files only activate when someone opens them from a stolen SD card. No data is collected from your website visitors. See the FAQ for details on external services used.

External services

This plugin connects to the following third-party services under specific circumstances:

Google Maps

GPS coordinate links. When a camera has GPS coordinates, the plugin displays a « Open in Map » link that opens Google Maps at that location. No data is sent automatically — the link is only followed when the admin clicks it.

OpenStreetMap

Map tiles for location reviews. Camera GPS coordinates are displayed on interactive maps using Leaflet.js with OpenStreetMap tile layers.

Freemius

Software licensing and analytics platform used for optional plugin updates and upgrade management. Handles license verification and provides an upgrade path to the Pro version.
