## Description

Flumen Analytics for WooCommerce is a free connector that helps you set up and connect
your WooCommerce store to **Flumen Data Analytics**, a hosted analytics service 
at flumendataanalytics.com that turns your sales data into dashboards.

This plugin is a connector only. It does not bundle any paid features, and it does
not display anything on the public-facing side of your site. Everything it does 
happens on an admin settings page under the WooCommerce menu.

**What it does**

 * Adds a **Flumen Analytics** settings page under the WooCommerce menu.
 * Runs local, on-page readiness checks and explains, in plain language, what to
   change and why for anything that needs attention:
    - Permalinks are not set to Plain (the WooCommerce REST API returns 404 under
      Plain), with a direct link to Settings → Permalinks.
    - Your site is served over HTTPS.
    - WooCommerce is active and its REST API responds.
    - Whether the Cost of Goods Sold feature is enabled (it powers profit-margin
      reporting), with a link to enable it.
 * A **Connect** button that opens the Flumen sign-up page with your store address
   filled in for you, plus a separate link for existing clients to log in to their
   Flumen dashboard.
 * Shows your connection status by detecting whether a Flumen WooCommerce REST API
   key exists on your store.

The plugin never transmits store data itself. Data is only shared with Flumen after
you explicitly authorize a read-only WooCommerce REST API key on the Flumen website,
through WooCommerce’s own authorization screen.

### External services

This plugin helps you connect your store to **Flumen Data Analytics** (https://flumendataanalytics.
com), a hosted analytics service operated by Flumen Data Analytics.

The plugin does not send any data from your server. On its admin settings page it
shows links that open flumendataanalytics.com in your browser and include your site’s
public home URL as a query parameter, so you do not have to type your store address.
No request is made from your server to Flumen by this plugin.

If you choose to connect on the Flumen website, you authorize a read-only WooCommerce
REST API key through WooCommerce’s own authorization screen. From that point, Flumen
reads your sales data via the WooCommerce REST API under the terms you agree to 
on the Flumen website.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `flumen-analytics` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or install the 
    plugin through the WordPress Plugins screen directly.
 2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins screen in WordPress.
 3. Go to **WooCommerce → Flumen Analytics**.
 4. Review the readiness checks, then use the Connect button to link your store to 
    Flumen.

## FAQ

### Is this plugin free?

Yes. It is a free connector. It does not bundle any paid features. Flumen Data Analytics
is a separate hosted service with its own terms.

### Does the plugin send my store data anywhere?

No. The plugin itself does not transmit any store data. It only opens the Flumen
website in your browser (passing your public site URL so you do not have to type
it). Data is read by Flumen only after you authorize a read-only WooCommerce REST
API key on the Flumen website.

### Why does it check my permalinks and HTTPS?

The WooCommerce REST API returns 404 errors when permalinks are set to Plain, and
a secure connection requires HTTPS. The checks catch these common issues before 
you try to connect.

### Do I need Cost of Goods Sold?

No, it is optional. Enabling WooCommerce’s Cost of Goods Sold feature lets Flumen
report on profit margins. The plugin flags it as a recommendation, not a requirement.
