WP Time Machine is the long-running remote-backup plugin that pushes a WordPress archive to Dropbox, Amazon S3 or FTP on a schedule. Its admin screen has always been functional rather than analytical: it tells you the last run status and provides a manual trigger. That is enough on day one. By month six the install has hundreds of runs across two or three remotes, and the question 'is the Dropbox push still healthy?' takes more clicking than the data justifies.

SleekView Charts reads the same wp_options entries WP Time Machine writes for each push. A Number card surfaces successful pushes in the last 30 days. A Pie splits the volume across Dropbox, S3 and FTP. A Bar groups average upload size per week so growth in the underlying site shows up as a chart line. An Area trends scheduled runs per day so a CRON misfire becomes a chart break.

The chart view and table view share the same dataset, so a filter for failed FTP pushes narrows both. Same plugin doing the work, much better visibility into how the remotes are actually behaving.

Plugins that ship backups off-site have the strongest case for charting their own outputs. The whole point of remote backup is that the recovery copy is somewhere the WordPress install cannot reach if WordPress is on fire. That guarantee only holds if the remote is actually receiving the uploads.

WP Time Machine's status line answers 'did the last run work?' and is silent on 'has Dropbox accepted every push for the last six weeks?' The chart layer answers the second question without changing how the plugin operates. A KPI on successful pushes catches a stalled schedule on day two. A destination Pie catches a remote rejecting uploads.

A size trend catches site growth before it becomes a restore problem.
