CPT UI Extended is the premium tier that adds layout assignment, archive customisation and template controls on top of the registration capabilities CPTUI ships in core. Once a site has half a dozen layouts and a handful of templates running across multiple CPTs, the standard admin surface is a list of options screens. Which layouts are actually assigned, which CPTs use the default template, which archive pages have custom configuration: none of it surfaces as a number.

SleekView Charts reads the option storage CPT UI Extended uses and pivots it into chart cards. A Number card counts CPTs with a non-default layout assigned. A Pie shows the layout mix across the registered CPTs. A Bar ranks templates by post count. An Area trends edits to the layout and template options over time, which is useful when a team is mid-redesign and wants to see how the rollout is progressing.

The dashboard sits on the same options CPTUI Extended already exposes, so there is no separate state to keep in sync. The settings screen is the source of truth and the chart layer is a view of it.

CPTUI is intentionally narrow; CPT UI Extended widens it by adding layouts, templates and archive customisation on top of the registration step. The trade-off is that the configuration surface grows fast and the standard admin presents it as a series of independent settings screens. There is no built-in number for "how many CPTs run a custom layout", no built-in pie chart for layout mix, no trend line for redesign rollout.

SleekView Charts reads the options CPT UI Extended already writes, treats them as dimensions and pivots them into chart cards. The configuration becomes a queryable, observable surface rather than a forest of toggles. For a developer maintaining a CPT-heavy build, or for a design lead rolling out a new template family, that is the difference between feeling the change and measuring it.
