WPS Limit Login keeps a compact set of records. Active retries live in wp_options under wps_limit_login_retries, current lockouts in wps_limit_login_lockouts, and the lockout history in wps_limit_login_logged, each keyed by IP address with timestamp and attempt count. When logging is enabled the plugin also writes a textarea-style log entry per event. The bundled UI shows totals, the last failures, and a long sortable list, but it never aggregates by hour, IP rank, or attack vector.

SleekView Charts puts the answers on one screen. A Number card carries today's lockouts, a Pie groups by attempt source (XML-RPC, login form, WooCommerce login, auth cookies), a Bar ranks IPs by retry count, and an Area card tracks lockouts per day. Each card runs server-side against the same wp_options rows and the optional logging table, so no extra storage is added.

Whitelist and blacklist entries from wps_limit_login_whitelist are joinable too, so a dashboard can immediately answer how many attempts originated from non-whitelisted IPs and which protections kicked in first.

WPS Limit Login captures the data needed to spot a brute-force campaign, but its admin screens are designed to surface individual rows. Aggregate questions, the ones that matter when an attack is in progress or being reviewed afterward, need charts. Which source took the most attempts, which IPs were most persistent, when did the spike start.

Those questions are about distribution and time, not about a single retry counter. SleekView Charts gives the WPS Limit Login data a real dashboard surface so security teams can answer trend questions without exporting and without leaving WordPress.
