SleekPixel for Asset CleanUp rollout posts
Asset CleanUp is the Gabe Livan asset gating plugin used across many WordPress sites. The posts that recap a Asset CleanUp rollout get a SleekPixel card with the defer or minify state, the configuration flags, and a clean rules count summary pulled from safe option counters.

Asset CleanUp recaps deserve a state-shaped preview
Asset CleanUp stores its configuration in the wpacu_settings option family with sub-keys for the defer or minify state, the toggle flags, and the rules count counter. Per-attachment data lives in the _assetcleanup_load_exceptions postmeta on each item the plugin touches, and wpacu summary powers the dashboard summary. The keys are designed for the standard options API.
Sites that run a Asset CleanUp rollout publish a recap post. The post explains what the rollout covered such as initial sweep, defer rollout, critical CSS. The audience is performance-aware readers and clients reviewing the work. A generic homepage banner buries the result in a regular blog update. A state card with the defer or minify flags and the rules count number communicates the rollout in the preview itself.
SleekPixel binds to a recap post type with fields for rollout type, period, and summary. A whitelisted subset of wpacu_settings renders as small posture badges showing defer on, minify on, critical CSS on. The template lays out the badges on the right and the recap summary on the left. The render produces a 1200x630 PNG that surfaces the Asset CleanUp rollout result.

The bigger picture
Why Asset CleanUp recaps need state-shaped previews
Asset CleanUp does asset gating work that is invisible by default. The frontend pages changes shape, scores improve, and clients never see the lift in the share preview because the recap looks like every other blog post on the site. Performance and SEO are disciplines that compound across a back catalog.
Asset CleanUp rollouts are the visible evidence that the discipline is alive across the site. The share preview is what audiences see first when the link lands in Slack or email. A generic homepage banner collapses the rollout into a marketing update.
A state card with the defer or minify flags and the rules count number communicates the work directly and gets the right attention from performance reviewers. The compounding effect shows up over a year of recaps. Each rollout, with a consistent state card, becomes a body of operational evidence that the program is real and ongoing across the back catalog of recap posts on the site.
Questions
Common questions about SleekPixel for Asset CleanUp
No. The per-item _assetcleanup_load_exceptions postmeta is not part of the whitelist. The render reads only safe summary counters from the option family, and per-item data stays scoped to the underlying tool where it belongs in normal use.
Yes. Pro adds bulk rules and critical CSS but stores configuration in the same option family. Any flag you whitelist renders the same way as the free flags, through the standard template binding on the card render. There is no separate code path for the paid tier on the binding side.
Generally no. Per-row data is operational detail that most teams prefer to keep off the share image. The whitelist defaults to summary counters and toggle flags. Per-row dumps can be added on internal-only variants but are not in the default binding by design.
Each recap captures the state at publication time through the whitelisted flags. Historical recap posts keep the values current at save, so the audit trail of changes stays intact across the back catalog of recap posts published on the site over time.
Yes for live binding. If the plugin is deactivated the binding falls back to a manual value entered on the recap post and the auto-state badges go quiet by design. Reactivating restores the live binding on the next save without any code change.
Yes. The rollout type drives the variant selection. initial sweep, defer rollout, critical CSS each use a dedicated layout that highlights the relevant badge set as the headline state of the recap and downplays unrelated badges accordingly through the variant configuration.
Yes. The rules count field is opt-in per variant. Some teams prefer to keep the number off the share image and reserve it for the body of the post, which is supported through a simple toggle on the variant configuration without code changes.
Yes. Each tool stores configuration in its own option family. SleekPixel binds to whichever option family is active for the recap post type, and multi-tool variants are supported as a separate template family for joint recap posts that touch both layers.
