## Description

UX Signal scores a page against 56 weighted UX heuristics at desktop, tablet and
phone widths, and backs every scored finding with a screenshot or a measurement 
from the page.

This plugin brings that into WordPress:

 * **Audit the whole site.** WordPress already knows your pages, so you choose which
   ones to include instead of leaving it to a crawler.
 * **Audit one page.** “UX audit” appears under every published page and post, and
   in the admin bar while you view one.
 * **See the result where you work.** The score, the five issues costing it the 
   most with their fixes, and a page-by-page table. The full report, with its evidence,
   is one click away.
 * **A dashboard widget** with your latest score.

A UX Signal account on the Pro or Team plan is required. Audits started here count
against that plan exactly as audits started on uxsignal.io do.

### External services

This plugin connects to UX Signal (https://uxsignal.io), the service that performs
the audits. It cannot work without it.

 * **What is sent:** your API key, and the addresses of the pages you choose to 
   audit. Nothing is sent until you connect a key, and after that only when you 
   start an audit or open the plugin’s screen (to check on a running audit and read
   your plan’s allowance).
 * **What UX Signal does with it:** it loads those public pages in a browser, the
   same way a visitor would, and scores them. It does not receive your WordPress
   users, content database or passwords.
 * **No tracking:** the plugin sends no usage data and loads nothing from other 
   servers.

## Installation

 1. Install and activate the plugin.
 2. In your UX Signal account, open Settings, then API keys (https://uxsignal.io/api-
    keys), and make a key.
 3. In WordPress, open **UX Signal** in the admin menu, paste the key and click Connect.
 4. Tick the pages to include and click **Start site audit**.

## FAQ

### How long does an audit take?

Two to three minutes for one page. A site audit takes longer, depending on how many
pages you include. You can leave the screen; the result is there when you return.

### Can it audit a site on my computer or behind a password?

Not yet. UX Signal loads your pages over the internet, so the site has to be publicly
reachable. The plugin tells you when it is not.

### Where is my API key stored?

In this site’s options table. It is sent only to uxsignal.io. Disconnecting, or 
deleting the plugin, removes it.

### Does it slow my site down?

No. It adds nothing to your public pages. It only does work on its own admin screen.
