SleekView Charts for PublishPress Notifications
PublishPress Notifications writes a notification record for every alert it sends. SleekView Charts reads the same log table and renders sends per workflow, alerts per role and notification volume over time as Number, Pie, Bar and Area cards.

Editorial alerts pile up. Reporting on them is missing.
PublishPress Notifications is the alert engine that ties together the rest of the editorial suite: send an email when a post moves to Assigned, ping the editor when a status changes to In Review, notify a writer when an editorial comment lands on one of their drafts. Every active newsroom ends up with dozens of workflows and a steady stream of notifications going out to authors, editors and managing editors.
SleekView Charts reads the notifications log PublishPress already writes, joins it with the recipient role and the source post, and renders the resulting load as chart cards. A Number card shows total notifications sent this week. A Pie shows which workflow sent them. A Bar shows alerts per recipient role so the load distribution is visible. An Area trends sends per day so a runaway workflow becomes visible before it floods inboxes.
The notifications themselves do not change. Workflow definitions, recipient rules and delivery channels stay where they are in the PublishPress Notifications admin. SleekView turns the resulting send data into a real reporting surface for the editorial leads who actually configure the alerts.

Comparison
Default PublishPress Notifications log vs SleekView Charts
Default Notifications log
- Log screen shows individual sends but no aggregate counts
- Sends per workflow are not exposed as a chart
- Recipient role load is invisible at any aggregate level
- Send volume trends over time need a custom report
- Cross-workflow comparisons require a spreadsheet
SleekView Charts
- KPI card for total notifications sent in any window
- Pie of sends per workflow to find the noisy ones
- Bar of alerts per recipient role for load balancing
- Area trend of sends per day to catch runaway workflows
- Filters carry from the chart view into the underlying SleekView table
Features
What SleekView Charts gives you for PublishPress
Notifications as data
Every sent alert is a row with workflow, recipient and post. Counts, splits and trends across the whole log become chart cards without trawling email archives.
Load per role
Group sends by recipient role to see who is carrying the inbox cost of the workflow design. Tune rules before the editor-in-chief asks for an inbox cleanup.
Spot runaway workflows
Trend sends per day with an Area card and a spike from a misconfigured rule jumps out long before it is the subject of a complaint. Fix workflows before they fix themselves.
Audience
Who builds PublishPress Notifications charts dashboards with SleekView
Editorial admins
Audit which workflows are sending what and to whom. Reconfigure rules with a real volume number behind the change rather than a vague sense that there are too many emails.
Managing editors
Pin a weekly sends KPI and a per-workflow pie to the desk dashboard. The team sees alert load alongside content output and can plan workflow tuning into normal sprint work.
Agencies
Report to each client on how much editorial signal their workflows are producing. A clear sends-per-workflow chart turns notification design from a black box into a deliverable.
The bigger picture
Why notifications need an aggregate view
Editorial notifications are one of the most useful things an editorial workflow tool can do, and one of the easiest things to misconfigure. A small newsroom can ship a dozen workflows that quietly produce hundreds of emails a week, most of which go to the same two managing editors and most of which never get opened. The Notifications admin shows each workflow and each sent alert, but it does not show the whole.
SleekView Charts reads the same notifications log and renders volume, per-workflow split, per-role load and send trend as Number, Pie, Bar and Area cards. The workflows themselves stay where they are in PublishPress. The team gains a measurable surface for what they are actually producing, which is the precondition for tuning notifications instead of just turning the whole feature off.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView Charts for PublishPress
PublishPress Notifications writes a row per sent alert with the workflow name, recipient user, source post, channel (email, Slack and so on) and timestamp. SleekView reads each of those columns as a chart dimension or filter, so any combination is available without extra data collection.
 The notifications log structure is the same in the free and Pro tiers, just with a wider set of channels and workflow conditions in Pro. SleekView reads the same table either way, so a free install gets the same Number, Pie, Bar and Area dashboards as a Pro install would.
 Yes. The log carries the channel for each sent notification, so a Pie split across email, Slack and any other configured channel is one of the available cards. Useful for confirming a newly enabled Slack channel actually picks up its share of alerts.
 Yes. Notifications join wp_posts for the source post, so adding a filter on post_type or category narrows the whole dashboard to that section. Newsrooms running separate desks each get their own notification view from one configuration.
 No. SleekView only reads the existing notifications log; it does not sit on the send path. Reporting runs against the same rows the plugin already writes for its own audit screen, so there is no extra cost at delivery time.
 Yes. Filter to a workflow name, group by sent_at with an Area or Line card and pick a Count aggregation. The trend is the fastest way to see whether a workflow is firing the expected number of times after a configuration change.
 If the notifications log captures send status (success, failure, retry), yes. SleekView reads whatever columns the log writes, so a Bar of failures per channel becomes a card as soon as that data is captured by the plugin or by a small logging shim.
 Yes. Any filtered set behind a chart card exports as CSV with the workflow, recipient, post and timestamp columns. Editorial and legal teams use this for retention audits or to brief a client on exactly which notifications were sent in a particular incident window.
