WP-Stateless writes a sm_cloud postmeta entry on every offloaded attachment. The value is a serialized array with the GCS bucket, the object name, the public fileLink, and a cacheControl string. Attachment metadata also records the file size, MIME type, and post date in the usual WordPress fields. The result is a complete offload graph the default Media Library never visualizes.

SleekView Charts reads the sm_cloud postmeta directly. Number cards count total offloaded attachments and sum file size across the library. Pie cards split by GCS bucket so multi-bucket sites see how content is distributed across buckets. Pie cards also split by MIME type to show how much of the offload is images, video, or documents. Bar cards rank top folders or path prefixes by file count, and area cards trace offload cadence over post_date so the team sees when GCS adoption actually accelerated.

Every card reads through the postmeta WP-Stateless already writes, so the Stateless mode, the file replacement, and the GCS URL generation continue to behave normally. The dashboard becomes the admin-side companion that finally answers what is on GCS, how much it weighs, and how it grew.

Cloud offload turns into a quiet billing surface the moment it scales beyond a couple of buckets. WP-Stateless writes sm_cloud postmeta for every offloaded attachment with the bucket, the object name, and the public file link, but the default Media Library hides all of it behind the standard attachment view. Site admins running cloud infrastructure reviews want WP-side answers: how many files are on GCS, how much do they weigh, which buckets carry the load, which MIME types dominate, and how fast the offload is growing.

They do not want to click through every attachment or open the Cloud Console for every check. SleekView Charts reads the sm_cloud postmeta WP-Stateless already writes and renders that data as a configurable chart dashboard. The Stateless mode, the file replacement, and the GCS URL generation continue to behave normally because nothing about how attachments are offloaded changes.
