SleekView Charts for Business Directory Plugin

SleekView Charts reads the wpbdp_listing post type and the listings_fees and category meta Business Directory Plugin writes, then renders inventory totals, expiry curves and fee distribution as Number, Pie, Bar and Area cards.

SleekView Charts dashboard for Business Directory Plugin

Counting listings by scrolling is not a reporting strategy

Business Directory Plugin stores every listing as a wpbdp_listing post with category terms, fee plan IDs, expiry dates and field values held in postmeta. The default Manage Listings screen lists those rows, paginates them and offers a status filter. Useful when looking for one record. Useless when an operator wants to know how the directory is doing as a whole.

SleekView Charts reads the same posts and meta directly. A Number card counts active listings. A Pie splits them across categories so operators see whether the directory is balanced or top-heavy on one section. A Bar groups listings by their fee plan, which is the question that drives any monetisation decision. An Area trends new submissions per week, the metric a directory owner actually needs before quoting an advertiser.

Because everything reads from the post type and the wpbdp_payments and wpbdp_listing_fees tables Business Directory Plugin already maintains, no shadow report is created. Inline edits made from the table view that sits beside the charts go through the standard post API so wpbdp's hooks for expiry, renewal and search index updates fire as expected.

Workflow

Turn wpbdp listings into a directory dashboard

1

Read the listings and fee data

SleekView indexes the wpbdp_listing post type, its category terms, fee plan assignments and expiry meta, plus the wpbdp_payments and wpbdp_listing_fees tables for paid plan history.
2

Compose the chart cards

Pick Number, Pie, Bar, Area or Radial cards. Group by category, fee plan, status or submission date, and aggregate as Count, Sum, Average, Minimum or Maximum on any numeric field.
3

Save and scope the dashboard

Name it ("Active inventory", "Renewals next 30 days") and gate it by WordPress capability so directory owners, moderators and sales each see the right slice.
4

Share or export

Send a read-only URL to a stakeholder or export the underlying filtered set to CSV. Renewal outreach, sponsor reports and quarterly reviews get a measurable picture instead of a guess.

Sample dashboard

Charts you can build from Business Directory Plugin data

Each card below reads the wpbdp_listing posts and their fee, category and expiry meta. Mix them to build a directory health dashboard, a moderation cockpit or a renewals planning view.
Number · Default

Active listings

Total wpbdp_listing posts with a published status and a non-expired _wpbdp_listing_expiration. The anchor KPI any directory owner reports on.
Count
Pie · Donut text

Listings by category

Split across wpbdp_category terms. Shows whether the directory is balanced or whether one or two categories dominate the inventory.
Count group by wpbdp_category
Bar · Horizontal

Listings per fee plan

Active listings grouped by their fee plan ID. The view that drives any pricing or upsell decision: which plan carries the volume and which one is quietly empty.
Count group by fee_plan_id
Area · Gradient

Submissions per week

Time series of new listings created per week. Reveals seasonal patterns and whether a marketing push actually changed submission volume.
Count group by post_date

Comparison

Default Business Directory admin vs SleekView Charts

Default Manage Listings screen

  • Manage Listings shows a paginated list with no totals or splits
  • No visual breakdown of listings by category or fee plan
  • Expiry dates exist on every row but never aggregate into a curve
  • Payment history sits in wpbdp_payments with no built-in chart surface
  • No way to share a read-only inventory snapshot with a sponsor or partner

SleekView Charts

  • KPI card for active inventory across the whole directory
  • Pie split across wpbdp_category terms for balance visibility
  • Bar of listings per fee plan for pricing decisions
  • Area trend of submissions per week for marketing review
  • Filters carry between the table view and the chart view

Features

What SleekView Charts gives you for Business Directory Plugin

Dashboard over the listings post type

Render the wpbdp_listing inventory as Number, Pie, Bar and Area cards so directory owners see the shape of the data instead of pagination.

Filters span table and chart

Filter to expiring listings in the chart view and the underlying table stays in sync. Same posts, same meta, two ways of reading them.

Share with sponsors and partners

Send a read-only URL of the dashboard or export the filtered set to CSV. Sponsor reports and renewal pitches get a measurable picture, not a vague claim.

Audience

Who builds Business Directory Plugin charts dashboards with SleekView

Directory owners

Watch active inventory, category mix and submission rate as live KPIs. Quote sponsors and partners with a real number instead of a screenshot of a list.

Monetisation leads

Track listings per fee plan and revenue from wpbdp_payments. See which plans pull weight and which need a pricing rethink before quarter close.

Renewals teams

Scope the dashboard to listings expiring in the next thirty days and trend renewal rate over time. Turn the renewal cycle into a measurable program.

The bigger picture

Why a directory needs a dashboard, not a paginated list

Business Directory Plugin gives a fully functional admin for managing one listing at a time. It does not give an aggregate view of the directory as a whole. Owners running a directory for sponsors or members need to answer questions the default UI cannot: how many active listings exist right now, how they split across categories, which fee plans carry the volume, and how submission rate trended through the last quarter.

Each of those questions is one query against data the plugin already stores. SleekView Charts simply renders those queries as cards. The directory keeps its own data model, the front-end search keeps working as configured, and the team gets a reporting surface that matches the scale of the business they actually run.

Questions

Common questions about SleekView Charts for Business Directory Plugin

The wpbdp_listing post type, its assigned wpbdp_category terms, the fee-plan and expiry postmeta keys Business Directory Plugin already writes, and the wpbdp_payments and wpbdp_listing_fees tables for paid plan history. No premium add-on is required and no shadow tables are created.

 

Yes. The table view and chart view sit on the same dataset, so a filter for a specific category, fee plan or expiry window applies to both surfaces. Operators can pivot between row-level moderation and chart-level reporting without rebuilding the filter.

 

Yes. Group by post_date with an Area or Line card and pick a Count aggregation to see listings submitted per day, week or month. Useful for measuring whether a marketing push, sponsorship or category launch changed the actual rate.

 

Yes. SleekView reads the same posts, terms, postmeta and database tables that the paid modules (Featured Listings, Payment Gateways, Premium Listings) feed. Any field a paid module writes becomes available as a column or chart group-by.

 

Yes. The wpbdp_payments table is queryable from SleekView, so a Bar of revenue per fee plan, a Number for total paid this month or an Area trending payment volume over a quarter are all native cards.

 

No. SleekView is admin-only and reads through indexed columns. The front-end category archives, search and listing detail pages keep rendering through Business Directory Plugin's normal templates, unchanged.

 

Yes. Any filtered set behind a card exports as CSV with the same columns the table view shows. Useful for handing renewal lists to a sales team, sharing sponsor inventory reports or backing up a category before a bulk update.

 

Yes. Each saved dashboard is gated by WordPress capability, so a sales lead, a moderator and the directory owner each open the slice that matches their role, while everything stays in the same admin.
