Add your Site to Siteimprove
Send a new email to cascade-support@nmsu.edu with the Cascade site name and URL of the site you would like added to Siteimprove.
Our team will issue you a Siteimprove account if you do not already have one, and you will have access to your site reports in your Dashboard.
You will receive an email from Siteimprove with details on how to finalize your account and create your password.
Siteimprove Resources
When viewing your Siteimprove dashboard, select your desired site.
Utilize the left-hand sidebar to view various reports from your site including Quality Assurance, Accessibility and SEO.
On a site-by-site occurrence, you can request that a Siteimprove button/widget/feature be added to any LIVE Cascade site you manage. This will allow you to view the corresponding Siteimprove reports as you are editing the site in Cascade.
Add Siteimprove to your Cascade site
Send a new email to cascade-support@nmsu.edu with Cascade site name and URL, requesting we add a Siteimprove option to your Cascade dashboard.
The Siteimprove feature will be added to the requested LIVE site in Cascade.
Please note, you must request the site be added to Siteimprove prior to requesting the Cascade integration.
Once your Cascade site has the Siteimprove integration, you will notice two small icons appear on the right-hand side of your browser window, halfway down the page. One will show the site improve logo, and the other will show the number of issues associated with the page you are viewing.
Click on these small icons to allow a Siteimprove box to appear. This will display a quick report of your site’s overall “health”. When you click the icons, you may be prompted to log into your Siteimprove account before it displays your site reports.
About using SiteImprove on non-public sites (i.e. sites in development)
It is not possible for SiteImprove to scan sites still in development (unpublished, inside of Cascade) as other public sites can. The cloud service provider or third-party application that the site uses blocks automated crawlers and it is treated as a Single Page Application. This means that it loads content into a page dynamically, based on manual interactions with the page, after it has been rendered for the first time. Therefore, all accessibility scans for libguides will need to be done through the SiteImprove's browser extension, and done manually.
