Scribelo

Scribelo is a website annotation tool for agencies. Clients open a review link, click the part of the page they want changed and type a comment. Every comment is pinned to the exact element, tracked to “done” and signed off by the client.

This plugin adds your Scribelo review script to every page of the site, so you don’t need to edit your theme or install a separate header-and-footer plugin.

• No login to WordPress for your clients
• Works with any theme and page builder, on live and staging sites
• The script is invisible to normal visitors. It only switches on when someone opens the site from a Scribelo review link
• It never reads form values, cookies or the site’s storage

You’ll need a Scribelo account (there’s a free plan): https://scribelo.io

External services

This plugin connects your site to Scribelo (https://scribelo.io), a website feedback service run by Stradcom Ltd. It’s needed so your clients can comment on the site.

Once you’ve saved an install code, every page of the site loads the Scribelo review script (https://scribelo.io/snippet.js, or the script address in your install code). As with any script, the visitor’s browser requests it from Scribelo’s server, which receives the visitor’s IP address, browser user agent and the address of the page. For normal visitors, nothing else happens: the script stays inactive and sends no other data.

The script only switches on when someone opens the site from a Scribelo review link. Then it sends to Scribelo:

• the project key and the one-time code from the review link, to start the review session
• for each comment: the reviewer’s name and comment, the page address and title, the element they clicked (its position, a CSS path and a short piece of its text), the screen size type (desktop, tablet or mobile) and any images they attach

It keeps the review session in the browser tab’s session storage so the review carries on as the reviewer moves between pages. It never reads form values, cookies or the site’s other storage.
