Mailchimp for WordPress writes every form submission and integration trigger into wp_mc4wp_log with the email, form ID, target list, and a result (subscribed, already a member, invalid, API error). The free plugin's log viewer is a paginated list. Premium adds CSV export but still does not give you a real dashboard over the data.

SleekView Charts reads wp_mc4wp_log directly and turns it into a configurable canvas. A Number card on total submits answers "how did the footer form do this week." A Pie on result tells you whether the issue is spam, API errors, or healthy growth. A Bar by form_id ranks which form is actually capturing leads. An Area on submitted_at shows the campaign and traffic spikes that drove the volume.

The boundary stays honest: contacts live in Mailchimp, the source of truth for subscription state is the Mailchimp API. SleekView Charts only describes the local log of attempts your site triggered, which is exactly where deliverability and spam questions actually start.

Mailchimp for WordPress already captures the data you need: every submit, every form, every list, every result. The default log viewer just is not built to answer the questions marketing actually asks: how did last week's footer form do, what share of attempts ended in errors, which form is pulling its weight. SleekView Charts treats the same wp_mc4wp_log table as a dataset and lets you put Number, Pie, Bar, and Area cards on the same canvas.

The contacts still live in Mailchimp; this is the WordPress-side dashboard over the gap between submit and Mailchimp record, which is where most issues live.
