SleekView Charts for ShortPixel Adaptive Images: CDN Served Dashboards
ShortPixel Adaptive Images stores per-attachment SPAI metadata in _spai_meta postmeta, settings in the wp-short-pixel-ai-settings option, and per-format counters in the shortpixel_ai_stats option. SleekView Charts reads that data and renders cards for served images, format coverage, and CDN bytes.

From a CDN counter to a coverage dashboard
ShortPixel Adaptive Images (SPAI) does its work invisibly: rewrite the image URL to the ShortPixel CDN, pick the right size and format per device, and let the response carry the savings. The result lives in two numbers on the dashboard: served images and bandwidth saved. Once they grow, the interesting questions show up. Which post types are still serving non-WebP images? Has AVIF coverage improved after the last sweep? Are there templates that bypass SPAI entirely because of inline styles?
SleekView Charts reads the same SPAI data as a normal source. A Number KPI sums served images from the shortpixel_ai_stats option, a Donut splits the library by format using the _spai_meta postmeta WebP and AVIF flags, a Horizontal Bar ranks post types by served images, and a Gradient Area traces daily served counts so a CDN outage shows up as a flat day instead of a quiet ticket.
SPAI keeps doing what it does on the front end. Charts query the same option keys and postmeta SPAI writes, and saved dashboards can be scoped per role so a content lead reads coverage while a developer watches for templates falling back to origin. No second store and no rebuilt aggregator.

Comparison
Default ShortPixel Adaptive Images reporting vs SleekView Charts
Default SPAI admin
- Served images appear as a global counter with no breakdown by content type.
- Format mix (JPG vs WebP vs AVIF) is not visualised in the SPAI admin.
- No time series of daily served counts or bandwidth saved over weeks.
- Templates bypassing SPAI because of inline styles are not surfaced anywhere.
- No read-only dashboards for content stakeholders without admin access.
SleekView Charts
-
Number, Pie, Bar, and Area cards built on
_spai_metaand the SPAI stats option with no extra storage. - Cards group by format, post type, served date, or any column SPAI writes.
- Global filters scope every card by date range, post type, or format at once.
- Saved dashboards scope per role so content and developer views stay separate.
- Inline drill-down to the connected SleekView grid for the underlying attachments.
Features
What SleekView Charts gives you for ShortPixel Adaptive Images
Real chart cards on SPAI data
Number, Pie, Bar, Line, Area, Radar, and Radial cards drop onto the _spai_meta postmeta and the shortpixel_ai_stats option. Group by format, post type, or any column SPAI writes when it serves an image.
One filter, every card
Date range, post type, and format filters apply across the whole dashboard. The same scope drives the KPI, the donut, the bar, and the time-series at once with no per-card duplication.
Role-scoped dashboards
Save separate layouts for content leads, developers, and site owners. The SPAI API key and CDN credentials stay tied to the capability checks WordPress already defines for admin users.
Audience
Who builds ShortPixel Adaptive Images charts dashboards with SleekView
Content leads
Scan format mix and post-type coverage each morning. Spot which templates still serve JPG instead of WebP or AVIF without scrolling the media library or trusting the global counter alone.
Performance engineers
Open the daily served activity chart after every theme update. A flat day in the area chart almost always points at a CDN outage or a template that bypasses SPAI through inline image tags.
Agency reporting
Hand each client a one-screen CDN snapshot scoped to their library. Account managers can read it without learning the SPAI settings layout or chasing the global served counter.
The bigger picture
Why an adaptive CDN reads better as a chart
ShortPixel Adaptive Images earns its money by quietly rewriting image URLs and serving smaller, format-aware versions from a CDN. The savings are real and they collapse into two big numbers on the dashboard. The data underneath, per-attachment format flags, served counts, and timestamps, already sits in postmeta and an option key SPAI maintains carefully.
Visualising those values as Number, Pie, Bar, and Area cards costs nothing on the writing side and reframes the same data as a dashboard. The cadence of media review shifts from a quarterly counter check to a daily glance, and the CDN keeps doing exactly what it always has.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView Charts for ShortPixel Adaptive Images
No. SleekView Charts reads the same _spai_meta postmeta and shortpixel_ai_stats option that ShortPixel Adaptive Images writes. No additional storage is created and the served counters stay consistent with the plugin's own dashboard.
 Yes. SleekView joins _spai_meta through the attachment row to its parent post, so any post type the image belongs to becomes a groupBy axis. Custom post types registered by other plugins show up automatically.
 Yes. The CDN runs in front of WordPress and is unaffected by SleekView. The chart reflects whatever SPAI records on the served row, including CDN format decisions, since SleekView reads those flags directly off the same postmeta.
 Yes. Each card supports CSV export of its aggregated values, and the underlying attachments are reachable through the connected SleekView grid for handing a structured coverage report to a client or to a developer.
 No. Aggregations run server-side against the indexes WordPress already maintains on postmeta and options. The dashboard requests aggregate buckets, not raw rows, so even large libraries resolve in the time a normal admin query takes.
 Yes. Saved chart layouts respect WordPress capability checks and can layer additional gates per card. A content lead can read the format mix without exposure to the SPAI API key or the CDN credentials at any point.
 No. The SPAI dashboard remains the place to configure CDN behaviour and the API key. SleekView Charts cover the interactive aggregate dashboard built from SPAI's own data, and the two complement each other on the same underlying rows.
 Yes. A Pie grouped by format scoped to a date range shows current coverage, and the daily served Area chart shows how that coverage shifts as new posts go live and old ones get re-rewritten by SPAI.
