SleekView Charts for Beaver Themer: theme layouts as a dashboard
Beaver Themer stores every header, footer, singular, archive, and 404 layout as an fl-theme-layout CPT row with location rules in postmeta. SleekView Charts reads those rows and builds a dashboard of layout type mix, location coverage, edit cadence, and stale layouts.

Read your Beaver Themer footprint as charts, not template lists
Beaver Themer saves every theme layout as a custom post type called fl-theme-layout, with the layout content living in postmeta under _fl_builder_data. The kind of layout (header, footer, singular, archive, 404, part) is set on the _fl_theme_layout_type meta key, and the location rules that decide where the layout is applied are stored on _fl_theme_builder_locations. The default Themer admin lists these layouts in a paginated table with no counts, no coverage view, and no edit-history summary.
SleekView Charts reads the same fl-theme-layout CPT and BB postmeta and turns the columns into chart cards. A Number card pins the total count of active Themer layouts. A Donut splits them by _fl_theme_layout_type so coverage of headers, footers, singulars, and archives is visible at a glance. A Bar ranks authors by layouts built, and an Area card uses post_modified to chart edit activity per week.
This is not a replacement for the visual builder. Beaver Themer still owns layout editing, location rules, and conditional logic. SleekView Charts adds the reporting surface Themer never shipped: which layout type is missing, which layouts have not been touched in 180 days, who built what, and how location rules are distributed across the site, all from the live tables Themer already writes.

Features
What SleekView Charts gives you for Beaver Themer
Real Themer columns drive real charts
Charts pull from the fl-theme-layout CPT and wp_postmeta keys Beaver Themer already writes. Every chart card references an actual column, no exports, no spreadsheet pivots, no shadow copy of the data.
Filters carry across cards
Set a date range, a layout type, or an author filter once and every chart card on the dashboard respects it. The audit table and the executive chart view share one saved configuration.
Editorial pulse as a curve
Group by post_modified truncated to week to chart layout edit activity over time. Quiet weeks, freeze periods, and campaign pushes become visible without spelunking through revisions.

Freelancers
Layouts-by-author and weekly edit volume on one screen so workload and handover risk are visible without a status meeting or a spreadsheet.
Site owners
A donut of layout types plus a stale-layouts count surfaces housekeeping debt before it turns into a redesign-time scramble.
The bigger picture
Why Beaver Themer sites deserve a chart view
Beaver Themer is the Beaver Builder add-on that runs theme-level layouts, the headers, footers, archives, singulars, and 404 pages that frame every page on the site. On a mature site the count adds up. A header per language, a footer per region, archives per post type, singular templates per content vertical, plus the one-offs that accumulate after every redesign.
The data describing that footprint sits in the fl-theme-layout CPT and a small set of postmeta keys, but Themer renders it as a flat list with no counts and no coverage summary. SleekView Charts reads those exact rows and turns each column into a chart source. A Number card answers how many active layouts the site is running.
A Donut answers whether the layout-type coverage matches the site map. An Area card answers whether the layouts are still being maintained or have drifted into stale territory. Themer keeps owning the editor, the chart view finally gives the underlying metadata a home where the people accountable for the site can read it without opening a database client.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView Charts for Beaver Themer
Directly from the fl-theme-layout custom post type in wp_posts and the related wp_postmeta keys: _fl_theme_layout_type, _fl_theme_builder_locations, and _fl_builder_data. No export, no shadow copy. Chart cards run live queries against the same indexed columns the audit table uses, so the dashboard reflects current data as soon as Themer writes it.
Yes. Group a Donut or Bar card by the _fl_theme_layout_type postmeta key and SleekView splits across header, footer, singular, archive, 404, and part. Filter further to specific types when an audit focuses on, for example, every archive template across a multi-site network of agency clients.
Group an Area or Line card by post_modified truncated to week or month, aggregated by Count. The curve shows when Themer layouts are being touched, useful for tracking campaign cadence, freeze windows, and stretches of zero activity that mark stale layouts ready for review.
Yes. View-level filters such as layout type, author, status, and date range apply to every chart card on the dashboard. One saved configuration drives both the audit table and the chart view, so housekeeping and reporting stay in sync without keeping two views aligned by hand.
 
Yes. Queries hit indexed columns on wp_posts (post_type, post_status, post_modified, post_author) and use the postmeta join only to detect layout type. For very large sites, the group-by column can be backed by a lightweight cache so the dashboard renders in milliseconds even when the CPT holds thousands of rows.
Yes. The _fl_theme_builder_locations postmeta key stores the rules that decide where each layout applies. SleekView Charts can group by location key (general, post, archive, taxonomy) and chart rule coverage so missing or overlapping locations become visible before they cause display bugs on the frontend.
Charts are read-only summaries by design. To act on a chart insight, switch to the audit table filtered to the same slice (for example, the stale segment of a type donut) and use the table view to open the layout in the Themer editor. Inline edits route through the standard WordPress update path as usual.
 Beaver Themer does not ship a reporting screen for its own layouts and locations, so there is nothing to replace. SleekView Charts adds a reporting surface on top of the metadata Themer already writes, so the plugin keeps owning layout editing and the chart view owns the summarisation across the whole site.
