## Description

Agency Command Post (or just “Command Post”) is built for agencies and freelancers
managing more than one WordPress site. Instead of logging into each client site 
to check for updates, install this plugin once and see everything from a single 
dashboard at [agencycommandpost.com](https://agencycommandpost.com).

**This plugin requires a free Command Post account.** Sign up, add a site, and you’ll
get an API key to paste into the plugin’s settings page. The free plan covers up
to 5 sites.

#### What it does

 * Reports your WordPress version and PHP version
 * Reports every installed plugin and theme — name, version, active status, and 
   whether an update is available
 * Sends this report automatically, once per hour, via WordPress’s built-in cron
 * Lets you trigger a manual report at any time from the plugin’s settings page

#### What it doesn’t do

Command Post never accesses your site’s content, database, users, or visitor data.
It only reports the software inventory listed above — nothing else ever leaves your
site.

#### Why use it

 * See PHP end-of-life warnings before they become emergencies
 * Spot outdated or inactive-but-vulnerable plugins across every client site at 
   once
 * Stop context-switching between a dozen wp-admin logins just to check for updates

### External services

This plugin connects to **Command Post** (agencycommandpost.com), a service operated
by the same company that publishes this plugin, to provide the site-monitoring dashboard
this plugin exists for.

Once you enter an API key (obtained from your free Command Post account), the plugin
sends the following to `https://agencycommandpost.com/api/ping` once per hour via
WordPress’s built-in cron, and also when you click “Send ping now”:

 * Your site’s API key (identifies which Command Post account/site the report belongs
   to)
 * Your WordPress version and PHP version
 * The name, version, active status, and update availability of every installed 
   plugin and theme

No page content, visitor data, or user data is ever collected or sent. If no API
key is configured, the plugin makes no external requests at all.

See the [Command Post Privacy Policy](https://agencycommandpost.com/privacy) for
details on how this data is used and retained.

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin through **Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin**, or upload the `
    agency-command-post` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`.
 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** menu in WordPress.
 3. Go to **Settings > Command Post**.
 4. Sign up for a free account at [agencycommandpost.com](https://agencycommandpost.com)
    if you haven’t already, add this site, and copy its API key.
 5. Paste the API key into the settings page and save. The site will report in automatically
    within the hour, or click **Send ping now** to report immediately.

## FAQ

### Do I need a Command Post account to use this plugin?

Yes. The plugin itself is free to install, but it needs an API key from a Command
Post account (also free, up to 5 sites) to know where to send reports and which 
dashboard to show them in.

### What data does this plugin send, and where?

It sends your WordPress version, PHP version, and a list of installed plugins/themes(
name, version, active status, update availability) to agencycommandpost.com over
HTTPS, once per hour. See the full [Privacy Policy](https://agencycommandpost.com/privacy)
for details.

### Does this slow down my site?

No. Reporting happens via WP-Cron in the background, not on visitor page loads.

### Can I change how often it reports?

Not currently — it’s fixed at once per hour via `wp_schedule_event`. You can always
trigger an immediate report manually from the settings page.

### What happens if I uninstall the plugin?

Your API key and any stored plugin options are deleted from your database, and the
scheduled cron event is cleared.
