You'll need
  • Your agency's name, email and website.

Hand the site to your client

Let clients see their score and reports without changing any settings.

Your client owns the website, so they are often an admin too. Client mode lets them see their score and reports, while only you can change the settings. No more "I clicked something and the banner disappeared".

  1. Turn on client mode

    Click Agency and scroll to Client mode. Turn on Clients can look, but not change settings 1.

    Client mode: the switch, who can change settings, and hide from clients
  2. Tick who can change settings

    Under Who can change settings 2, you are always ticked. Tick anyone else on your team who needs to make changes. Leave your client unticked.

  3. Hide WP Legal Eagle from your client

    Leave Hide from clients in the Plugins list 3 on. Your client won't see WP Legal Eagle in the Plugins list, so they can't switch it off by mistake.

  4. Save

    Press Save changes.

What your client sees

When your client logs in and opens the menu item, they see just three things:

What a client sees: their score and the “Managed by” bar

They can't press Fix it, change the banner, or open any settings. If they try a settings link, they're sent back to Home.

Want to see it yourself?Make a test user in Users → Add New User with the role Administrator. Log in as that user in a private window.
Good to knowClient mode is a lock for honest mistakes. An admin who knows WordPress well could still get around it, for example by deleting the plugin files.

Set up the next site in one minute

Save this site's setup as a file and load it on the next client site.

  3. Download it

    Press Download blueprint 2. A small file called something like legal-blueprint-yoursite.json is saved to your computer. Keep it somewhere safe; you can use it again and again.

Part 2: Load it on a new client site

  1. Install the plugin on the new site

    Install and activate Legal Eagle on the new site, then open License and paste your license key, like you did on the first one. Pro and Agency are built in: there's nothing else to install.

  2. Choose the file

    On the new site, open Agency and scroll to 2. Load on a new site. Press Choose File 3 and pick your blueprint file.

  3. Tick the boxes

    Leave Create the same legal pages ticked, so the pages are made for you. Tick I understand the pages are templates… 4.

  4. Press Load blueprint

    Press Load blueprint 5. You'll see a message saying it worked and how many pages were created.

  5. Finish the client's details

    Open Settings and type this client's business name and email. Then, on Agency, add the client's email for reports and turn on client mode. Press Re-check my site on Home to finish.

What's never copied? Client mode, the list of people who can change settings, the client's report email address and your report note. Those belong to one client, so you set them on each site.

Your website dashboard, explained

What your two scores mean, and how to read and download your report.

This page explains what you see on your website's dashboard. You can look at everything, and your web team takes care of the settings for you.

Your two scores

Your site has two separate scores. They measure different things.

ScoreWhat it measures
Protection Score
dark, with a shield
How well your site covers the legal basics: legal pages, cookie consent, disclosures and privacy rights.
Accessibility Score
purple, with an eye
How easy your site is to use for people with disabilities, for example people using a screen reader. 90 or more adds 10 points to your Protection Score.

For both scores, 90 to 100 (green) is great, 60 to 89 (orange) means a few things are missing, and under 60 (red) needs attention.

Your Home screen

Home shows your Protection Score, the four areas it's made of, and anything that still needs doing. The bar at the top shows who manages your site and how to reach them.
