rtMedia adds photo, audio and video uploads on top of BuddyPress or BuddyBoss, storing each upload as a row in rtm_media with media_type, media_author, context (profile, group), privacy and upload_date columns. Interaction data (likes, views) lives in rtm_media_interaction keyed by media_id. The default rtMedia admin shows a per-row moderation list, which is right for triaging a single upload and wrong for understanding what the community is actually creating.

SleekView Charts reads the rtm_media tables joined with the BuddyPress users table and renders media activity as chart cards. A Number card counts total uploads in the chosen window. A Pie shows the media-type mix (photo, video, audio) so community managers see whether the community leans visual, audio-first or balanced. A Bar ranks members by upload count for top-creator features. An Area trends uploads per day so weekly themes, prompts or campaigns become measurable.

Filters carry between the media audit table and the chart cards, so a privacy=public filter or a video-only slice narrows every card. The dashboard reads only what rtMedia already writes, so no extra tracking is added and no second analytics tool is needed.

rtMedia captures detailed creator signal: who uploads, what media types, in what context (profile, group) with what privacy and how often. The default admin renders that as a moderation row list, which is right for triaging individual uploads and unhelpful for understanding what the community is making at the cohort level. A total-uploads KPI anchors monthly creator reports, a media-type pie informs product priorities, a top-uploader bar produces creator-program shortlists and an Area on upload_date reveals whether prompts and themes move output.

Same rtm_media tables, same upload_date timestamps, completely different decision posture. The charts render the data the plugin already collects as a dashboard, which is the difference between knowing the community uploads and knowing what the upload graph looks like.
