SleekView Charts for Page Builder by SiteOrigin
Page Builder by SiteOrigin marks built pages with the panels_data postmeta key. SleekView Charts groups those pages into a template donut, an edit-cadence area, and an author bar so a long-running install reveals its layout patterns at a glance.

Layout activity as a dashboard
Page Builder by SiteOrigin is one of the longest-running free builders in the WordPress directory, and many sites have run on it for the better part of a decade. The trade-off of that longevity is accumulated layout, pages built years ago and rarely touched since, with no easy way to see them as a single inventory.
Pages built with SiteOrigin carry the panels_data postmeta key, the canonical marker the plugin writes on every built page. Each page also has a template, an author, a post_modified timestamp, and a status. The default Pages screen shows titles and dates and not much else, and no aggregate view rolls those fields up.
SleekView Charts treats the SiteOrigin-marked pages as a chartable dataset. Templates in use as a donut, edit cadence over time as an area, pages by author as a bar, and total built pages as a number. A long-running SiteOrigin install reveals its layout patterns instead of hiding them in the Pages list.

Features
What SleekView Charts gives you for Page Builder by SiteOrigin
Template mix at a glance
Donut card showing the share of SiteOrigin pages across SO Default, SO Landing, and custom templates. The audit that catches a campaign template still in use long after the campaign.
Edit cadence
Monthly page-edit totals plotted as an area chart. Redesign sprints show as spikes; quiet maintenance periods show as flat months. Both patterns inform handover planning.
Author distribution
Pages by author ranked as a horizontal bar. Useful when assigning content owners or planning a transfer of responsibility on a long-running install.
Audience
Who builds Page Builder by SiteOrigin charts dashboards with SleekView
Site auditors
Template donut and edit-cadence area on one screen. The audit that surfaces obsolete layouts on a long-running SiteOrigin install in minutes rather than weeks.
Migration planners
Layout activity charts before a builder migration. Edit cadence highlights active templates; the author bar highlights who owns which pages on the way out.
Editorial leads
Pages by author and template mix together. The handover view when a new editor inherits a SiteOrigin site with a decade of accumulated layout.
The bigger picture
Why long-running SiteOrigin installs need a dashboard
Free builders like Page Builder by SiteOrigin tend to power sites that have been running for many years, through multiple redesigns and several editor handovers. Each handover loses a little institutional memory, which page was the 2022 campaign landing, which template was used for the partner microsite, which author owns which legacy pages. The default Pages screen does not surface those patterns, even though all the data (template, author, post_modified, panels_data marker) is right there in standard WordPress fields.
SleekView Charts joins those fields and renders them as a layout dashboard. The donut shows the template mix. The area shows the edit cadence over time.
The bar shows pages per author. The number anchors the total. A long-running SiteOrigin install reveals its patterns instead of hiding them in a long paginated list.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView Charts for Page Builder by SiteOrigin
No. Layout structure stays in Page Builder by SiteOrigin where it belongs. SleekView Charts reads the panels_data marker and standard post fields and renders them as a dashboard. The plugin's editor remains the place to change a layout.
 It looks for the panels_data postmeta key, which Page Builder by SiteOrigin writes on every built page. Pages without that marker stay out of the chart dataset, so a plain WordPress page or a page from another builder never gets mixed in.
 Yes. The free Page Builder by SiteOrigin already writes the meta keys SleekView Charts reads. There is no premium dependency on the SiteOrigin side, and the free version covers standard layouts, custom widgets, and the panels_data marker.
 Yes. Each card supports a filter on the page_template column. The marketing team scopes the dashboard to SO Landing; the editorial team scopes to SO Default. The same dataset renders different dashboards per role.
 Yes. Premium widgets and the SiteOrigin Premium pack all store layout data under the same panels_data key, so detection works without configuration. The dashboard does not distinguish between free and premium widgets at the chart level.
 Charts query wp_postmeta and wp_posts on each render with paginated reads. Edits made in the SiteOrigin editor show up in the next chart render with no manual sync.
 Yes. Queries use the indexed meta_key column on wp_postmeta and standard post indexes. Sites with thousands of SiteOrigin pages render the dashboard in well under a second.
 Yes. Each WordPress role keeps its own saved layout. Site auditors open the template donut; migration planners open the edit area; editorial leads open the author bar. Saved layouts ship per role without rebuilding.
