SleekView Charts for Cimy User Extra Fields
Cimy User Extra Fields was retired from WordPress.org in 2022, but plenty of legacy installs still depend on it. SleekView Charts reads the cuef_data and cuef_fields tables and renders that data as chart cards, so HR and ops can see distributions without a migration.

An old plugin, still on the books
Cimy User Extra Fields stores its custom field definitions in cuef_fields and per-user values in cuef_data, separate from wp_usermeta. The admin UI has not been updated in years, and the data is stuck behind a per-user editor with no overview grid and no built-in reporting.
SleekView Charts targets cuef_data directly, joins to cuef_fields for labels, and surfaces the result as chart cards. Total users, department distribution, office mix, and hire-cohort trends become a dashboard rather than a database session.
For teams that cannot migrate yet, the dashboard buys time on a legacy install without forcing every user to refill a profile or rushing a migration before the new stack is ready.

Comparison
Cimy default reporting vs SleekView Charts
Cimy admin
- Per-user editor only, no overview grid or dashboard
- Plugin was closed on WordPress.org in 2022 and is no longer maintained
- Field values live in cuef_data, invisible to the WordPress user list
- No filtering across multiple extra fields without raw SQL
- No reporting, export, or visualisation built into the plugin
SleekView Charts
- Reads cuef_data through the cuef_fields join automatically
- Pivots long-form data into wide-form columns per user
- Number, Pie, Bar, and Area cards against the legacy schema
- Saved cohort dashboards per department, office, or hire year
- Writes back to the same Cimy columns so the legacy UI keeps working
Features
What SleekView Charts gives you for Cimy User Extra Fields
Reads Cimy's own tables
SleekView Charts is not stuck on usermeta. It targets cuef_data and cuef_fields directly and treats them as a first-class data source for chart cards.
Department and office breakdowns
Pie and Bar cards group by any Cimy extra field, so cross-cuts the original UI never offered are one configuration step away.
Compliance-ready charts
Active vs offboarded counts and personal-data field distributions feed an annual privacy review without a fresh database query each cycle.
Audience
Who builds Cimy charts dashboards with SleekView
HR teams
Watch headcount, department mix, and hire trends on legacy installs while planning a migration to a modern stack.
Compliance officers
Track active vs inactive cohorts and where personal-data fields are concentrated, as input to the annual data protection review.
Site operators
Buy time on a closed-source plugin with a live dashboard rather than rushing into a migration before the new stack is properly designed.
The bigger picture
Why legacy Cimy installs still need a dashboard
Cimy User Extra Fields was closed on WordPress.org in 2022 and is not actively maintained. The official advice is to migrate, and that advice is correct. The reality on many legacy installs is that the data is real, the migration is non-trivial, and the timeline is years rather than weeks.
Forcing the migration before the new stack is ready creates worse problems than running the old plugin a little longer. SleekView Charts gives HR, compliance, and operations a modern reporting layer on top of cuef_data and cuef_fields. The legacy schema keeps working, the existing admin UI stays untouched, and the team gets a dashboard instead of a database session.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView Charts for Cimy User Extra Fields
No. SleekView Charts only reads cuef_data and cuef_fields by default. Inline edits, when enabled, write back to the same columns the legacy plugin uses.
Only if cuef_data and cuef_fields still exist. SleekView reads those tables directly, so the plugin can stay disabled, but the tables themselves are the source.
Yes. Any field registered in cuef_fields is available as a groupBy or valueColumn, so department, office, hire date, and any other extra field can drive a chart card.
Yes. SleekView pivots Cimy's long-form per-field rows into wide-form columns per user, which is the shape that lets a chart group or sum sensibly.
Yes. Date-typed Cimy fields like hire date or onboarding date can be used as a groupBy for Area cards and as filters on the chart dataset.
No. SleekView Charts is a reporting and editing layer on top of the existing Cimy schema. It does not migrate data into wp_usermeta or any other store.
Yes. Saved dashboards are capability-gated, so HR sees one slice and compliance another even though both read the same Cimy data.
Yes. Offboarded users with a Cimy active flag set to false are included in the dataset and can be filtered in or out per chart card.
