Code Snippets Pro stores every saved snippet in a dedicated table with columns for name, code, description, tags, scope, priority, active flag and last-modified timestamp. The plugin's admin lists them in a paged table, which is great for editing one snippet and weak for the question every senior dev eventually asks: how many active snippets does this site actually run, what are they scoped to, and when were they last touched?

SleekView Charts reads the wp_snippets table directly. A Number card shows total active snippets. A Pie splits them by scope (everywhere, frontend, admin, single-use) so a site lead sees the real shape of the customisation footprint. A Bar groups snippets by tag to show which functional areas (woocommerce, gravity-forms, admin-tweaks) carry the load. An Area trends snippet edits over time, which is the fastest way to see whether the customisation layer is being maintained or quietly frozen.

Because everything reads from the plugin's own table, the dashboard works on every install with Code Snippets Pro active and tolerates the free, pro and cloud variants without extra configuration.

Code Snippets is the most polite way to add custom PHP to a WordPress install, which is exactly what makes it dangerous to leave un-audited. Snippets get added during incidents, during one-off campaigns, during a junior dev's first week. Each individual snippet is fine.

The accumulation, over years, becomes the entire reason a site is fragile, slow on the admin or unpredictable on update day. A KPI of active snippets anchors the conversation in a real number. A scope pie surfaces the global slice that is most likely to break unrelated things.

A tag bar turns a wall of code into a refactor plan. An edit trend separates a maintained customisation layer from an abandoned one. Same plugin, completely different operational confidence.
