About this plugin
Nigeria GeoData by Govware gives WordPress sites a local, queryable Nigerian administrative and electoral geography layer.
ng Nigeria GeoData service, then use the imported data entirely from their own WordPress database. The plugin includes cascading selectors, a local REST API, PHP and JavaScript APIs, a native Contact Form 7 integration, and built-in GeoForms for collecting and storing submissions.
Supported geography includes:
- Nigeria and geopolitical zones
- States / FCT
- Senatorial Districts
- Federal Constituencies
- LGAs / Area Councils
- Wards / Registration Areas
- Polling Units
The local relationship graph supports flexible paths. A site can use State -> LGA -> Ward -> Polling Unit, include electoral levels, or skip levels where the stored relationships allow it.
Additive coverage
A WordPress installation is not limited to one purchase. Each provisioning key is one-time-use for its authorised scope, while the same site can add additional coverage later.
For example, a site can provision one LGA today, another LGA later, then a complete State or National package in the future. Existing matching geography is reused and new records are merged into the same local dataset. Completed coverage is not deleted when another scope is added.
Built-in GeoForms
Nigeria GeoData can create complete forms without another form plugin. Supported fields include Text, Email, Phone, Textarea, Select, Checkbox and configurable GeoData selector groups.
GeoForm submissions are stored locally in WordPress. Administrators can view submissions, export them as CSV, receive submission notifications, and optionally send confirmation emails to submitters.
Contact Form 7
When Contact Form 7 is active, Nigeria GeoData registers native geography form-tags such as:
[ngd_state* state] [ngd_lga* lga depends:state] [ngd_ward* ward depends:lga] [ngd_polling_unit* polling_unit depends:ward]
Selected values can be used in Contact Form 7 mail tags.
Theme and design compatibility
Frontend output uses normal semantic HTML form controls with lightweight layout CSS and plugin-specific class names. Themes and site builders can style or override the selectors and GeoForms using normal CSS.
