WPCafe sits on a hybrid storage model. Menu items are WooCommerce products, food orders run through WooCommerce checkout into wc_orders, and table reservations are a separate WPCafe-registered post type with date, time, party size, and table assignment in postmeta. Three default admin screens, three operational rhythms, no single dashboard.

SleekView Charts builds one dataset that joins reservations, food orders, and menu items, then renders chart cards on top. A Number card tracks tonight's pending reservations. A Donut card splits today's order volume between delivery, pickup, and QR table orders. A Bar card ranks top-selling menu items by revenue. An Area card plots daily covers across both reservations and orders, so floor managers see the rhythm of both flows in one place.

Inline edits from the linked table view route through WordPress update hooks, so WPCafe's confirmation emails fire, QR-code table assignments stay intact, and any multi-location filter applies the same way on the chart layer as it does on the table layer.

Restaurants running on WordPress live across two operational flows. Reservations have their own rhythm (pending bookings to confirm pre-service, tonight's seating, tomorrow's holds), food orders another (delivery, pickup, and QR table orders coming in across the day). WPCafe stores both well; the default admin reflects the storage split with two screens.

The questions a floor manager actually asks bridge the two: how full are we tonight, which channel is growing, which menu items are pulling weight. Those questions need joined data and chart-shaped answers, and the data already lives in the same WordPress instance. SleekView Charts joins reservations, orders, and menu items into one dataset and gives the floor manager and the owner a configurable dashboard over it.

Multi-branch operators get the same dashboard scoped per location, with capability gating intact.
