Event Espresso 4 splits its work across Events, Registrations, Transactions, and Attendees. Each list is a sensible admin screen on its own, but answering the question "how is the event business doing this month" needs all four read together. The data is structured: dedicated tables for events, registrations, and transactions, joined by event ID and registration ID.

SleekView reads those tables and surfaces them as chart cards. Revenue this month, registration status mix, capacity used per event, and weekly registration cadence sit on one dashboard. Each card draws on the same rows the SleekView table view exposes, so chart and grid never disagree.

The dashboard does not change how EE4 processes registrations or charges cards. Approvals, refunds, and ticket assignments continue to run through Event Espresso. SleekView reads the rows EE4 already writes and turns them into the four cards an event manager wants to see before opening any single registration.

Event Espresso 4 has shipped one of the most complete event registration stacks on WordPress for over a decade, and its admin reflects that: dedicated tabs for events, registrations, transactions, and attendees, each with its own filters and bulk actions. The completeness is exactly why a chart layer matters. The data lives in well-structured tables, but four separate lists is the wrong shape for the role that owns the event business across them.

A revenue KPI is the morning glance, a registration status donut is the action queue, a capacity bar is the marketing push, and a cadence area is the campaign signal. SleekView reads the EE4 tables, surfaces them as the cards above, and leaves the registration flow untouched. The Event Espresso admin stays the operational tool.

The dashboard becomes its weekly review.
