SleekView Charts for Redirection: 404 and redirect traffic as dashboards

John Godley's Redirection logs every matched redirect to wp_redirection_logs and every unmatched URL to wp_redirection_404, with the rules themselves living in wp_redirection_items. SleekView Charts reads those tables and turns them into KPIs, status donuts, top-URL bars, and a daily trend across the live data.

SleekView Charts dashboard for Redirection

Stop scrolling the 404 log, start reading it as charts

Redirection already records the data. Every active rule sits in wp_redirection_items with url, action_data, match_type, action_code, last_count, and group_id. Each matched redirect is appended to wp_redirection_logs with the requested URL, sent URL, IP, agent, and timestamp. Unmatched URLs are written to wp_redirection_404. The plugin shows tables with sortable columns but no aggregated view across them, so spotting which 404 is bleeding traffic still means sorting a list page.

SleekView Charts reads the same three tables directly. A Number card counts rows in wp_redirection_404 for the current month, a Donut splits wp_redirection_logs by HTTP status (301, 302, 307, 410), a horizontal Bar ranks the noisiest source URLs from wp_redirection_logs.url, and an Area shows daily 404 volume so spikes after deploys are obvious.

Redirection still owns the rule engine, regex matching, group permissions, and the actual redirect response. SleekView only reads from the log tables, so toggling a rule, importing a CSV, or archiving a redirect group still happens in the Redirection admin pages and the dashboard updates on the next query.

Workflow

From Redirection's three tables to a chart dashboard

1

Point SleekView at the Redirection tables

Add wp_redirection_items, wp_redirection_logs, and wp_redirection_404 as SleekView data sources. The agent UI picks up the columns automatically and links each log row to a rule via redirection_id.
2

Switch the view to Charts

Open the new view and flip the view type from Table to Charts. The blank dashboard is ready for cards built directly on Redirection's log columns.
3

Add KPI, donut, bar, and trend cards

Drop a Number card on wp_redirection_404 row count, a Donut on http_code in wp_redirection_logs, a horizontal Bar on top url values, and an Area on created column to see daily 404 volume across the selected range.
4

Save and pin the dashboard

Save the chart view, scope it per role for SEO and ops, and pin it to the WP Admin sidebar so the 404 log is a glance instead of a click path through Tools then Redirection then 404s.

Sample dashboard

Charts you can build from Redirection's tables

Four cards built directly on wp_redirection_items, wp_redirection_logs, and wp_redirection_404 so the redirect estate is readable at a glance.
Number · Default

404s logged this month

Single KPI counting rows in wp_redirection_404 for the current month, with the prior month underneath for context. Surfaces SEO debt without opening the 404 log screen.
Count
Pie · Donut

Redirects by HTTP status

Donut split across 301, 302, 307, and 410 codes using the http_code column on wp_redirection_logs, so it is obvious which share of traffic moves on permanent redirects versus temporary ones.
Count group by http_code
Bar · Horizontal

Top redirect source URLs

Horizontal bar ranking the noisiest url values from wp_redirection_logs, ordered by hits, so the team can promote heavy 302s to 301s or retire stale rules with confidence.
Count group by url
Area · Gradient

Daily 404 volume

Gradient area of 404 hits per day sourced from the created timestamp on wp_redirection_404, useful for spotting traffic spikes after deploys or content migrations.
Count group by created

Comparison

Default Redirection screens vs SleekView Charts

Default Redirection log

  • Logs and 404s live on separate paginated screens with no roll-up across them
  • No KPI tiles for monthly 404 volume or redirect status mix
  • No trend visual showing 404 spikes day over day after a release
  • Top hit URLs visible only by sorting the log table column by column
  • Cannot pin a dashboard view to the sidebar or share it with non-admin roles

SleekView Charts

  • Number, Pie, Bar, and Area cards built directly on wp_redirection_items, wp_redirection_logs, and wp_redirection_404
  • Daily 404 trend on wp_redirection_404.created exposes spikes after deploys at a glance
  • Status donut grouped by http_code shows the live 301 vs 302 vs 410 mix
  • Role-scoped views let SEO and ops share the same dashboard without admin access
  • Read-only access leaves Redirection's matching engine, groups, and logs untouched

Features

What SleekView Charts gives you for Redirection

Reads the Redirection log tables

SleekView pulls directly from wp_redirection_items, wp_redirection_logs, and wp_redirection_404 with no schema changes and no replication. Add a column to a chart, the next query picks it up.

Mix chart types per card

Number, Bar, Pie, Donut, Area, and Line cards on a single view. Status share lives next to top URLs, daily 404 trend, and a monthly KPI. No need to open three different admin pages.

Per-role dashboards

Scope the chart view per WordPress role so the SEO team gets the 404 and redirect view and ops gets the deploy-impact trend, without granting full plugin access to either group.

Audience

Common Redirection dashboards built with SleekView

Find the noisiest 404s

Bar chart over wp_redirection_404 grouped by URL, sorted by hits, so the URLs draining the most link equity are at the top of the dashboard instead of buried on page seven of the log.

Spot deploy regressions

Area chart of daily 404 volume across the last 90 days. Spikes line up with release dates, so a content migration or theme update that broke URLs is visible immediately.

Audit the redirect mix

Donut over wp_redirection_logs.http_code highlights stale 302s that should be 301s and helps justify cleanup work to SEO leads with a single screenshot.

The bigger picture

Why a Redirection dashboard matters for SEO

Redirects and 404s decide how much of a site's link equity actually flows to live pages. Without a roll-up, teams treat the Redirection log as a reactive screen they only open after a Search Console alert. By that point days of crawl budget have already been wasted on URLs returning 404.

A live chart view changes that posture. The 404 KPI on the dashboard is the first thing the SEO lead sees on Monday, the daily trend exposes the deploy on Thursday that broke a template, and the top-URL bar shows exactly which old slug needs a 301. The Redirection plugin already collects the data on every request.

SleekView Charts simply turns that data into the read-out the team would otherwise rebuild in a spreadsheet, and keeps it inside WordPress where edits to the actual rules still happen.

Questions

Common questions about SleekView Charts for Redirection

SleekView reads wp_redirection_items for the rules, wp_redirection_logs for matched redirect hits with their http_code and timestamp, and wp_redirection_404 for unmatched URLs. Rule groups in wp_redirection_groups join in for label resolution. No schema changes, no replication, no plugin patches.

 

No. SleekView is strictly read-only against Redirection's tables. Rule edits, regex matching, redirect ordering, group permissions, CSV imports, and the actual HTTP response continue to live inside the Redirection admin. The dashboard rebuilds its read-out the next time a card is opened.

 

Yes. Cards accept a filter on group_id from wp_redirection_items, so a multisite or multi-brand setup can pin a dashboard per group. Useful when one site section is migrated and the team wants its 404 KPI in isolation rather than mixed with the rest of the estate.

 

It will be close but not identical. Redirection logs only requests that reach WordPress. Search Console reports what Googlebot encountered, which may include cached responses, CDN-edge 404s, or paths blocked before WordPress. Use the SleekView KPI to drive same-day cleanup and Search Console for the crawler's view.

 

Redirection prunes wp_redirection_404 on a schedule or on demand. SleekView reads whatever is there at query time, so once a row is deleted it stops counting in the KPI. To keep a longer history, raise Redirection's log retention or archive snapshots into a secondary table that SleekView can also read.

 

Yes. SleekView views appear in the WordPress admin menu like any other custom post type list. Pin the chart view, scope it per role, and the SEO team sees the 404 KPI on login instead of digging through Tools then Redirection then the 404 tab.

 

No. The Redirection log is still where the team inspects an individual hit and confirms the rule that matched. SleekView Charts is the read-out across thousands of hits. Per-row drill-down stays in Redirection, aggregated reporting moves to SleekView.

 

The tables stay in the database unless the plugin is uninstalled with its uninstall hook. SleekView will keep reading the historical rows until they are removed. If Redirection is uninstalled cleanly, the tables are dropped and the cards will return empty until a new redirect plugin populates equivalent data sources.
