WP Review (MyThemeShop) attaches the review box to the post being reviewed and stores criteria scores, overall rating, user vote tallies, and review type in postmeta on that post. Keys include wp_review_total, wp_review_type, and wp_review_user_total. The plugin closed on WordPress.org in May 2025, but existing installs continue to work and the data still lives in your database.

SleekView Charts reads across every reviewed post and pivots the values into a reporting canvas. A Number card counts reviews with editor score below a chosen threshold. A Pie card distributes reviews by review type (star, point, percentage, custom). A Bar card ranks categories by mean user rating. An Area card plots review updates over time.

Edits stay in the post editor or in SleekView's table view. Charts gives the editorial team a corpus-wide view of how the review section is performing.

WP Review stores everything the editorial team needs to manage the review corpus, but the data only surfaces in the post editor. Walking that data across 400 reviews is a job that doesn't happen, and the silent result is a slow erosion of category-level ratings. SleekView Charts joins postmeta with wp_posts and renders four corpus-wide cards on one canvas.

Low-score reviews surface as a count, review types as a donut, category averages as bars, and the refresh cadence as a line. The data was always there; Charts just gives the team a place to read it.
