SleekView Charts for YITH WC Uploads: customer file upload dashboards
YITH Uploads writes each customer-uploaded file as a WordPress attachment in wp_posts with post_type attachment, and links it to the order through the _ywcuf_files postmeta key on the shop_order row. SleekView Charts reads both and renders upload volumes, file types, and per-product upload rates on one screen.

Customer uploads as a real operational signal
YITH WooCommerce Uploads adds upload fields to product pages and persists each customer file as a standard WordPress attachment in wp_posts with post_type attachment. The link from the order to its uploaded files lives in the _ywcuf_files postmeta key on the parent shop_order row (or the equivalent wc_orders_meta row under HPOS), with the file MIME type and original filename on the attachment's _wp_attached_file and post_mime_type.
The default WooCommerce order screen marks orders containing uploads with a yellow bell and lets the admin accept or decline the files. There is no roll-up of how many uploads landed this week, which products attract them most, or what file types customers actually send. Print-on-demand stores, signage businesses, and agencies running a brief-based intake all need that roll-up to staff the file-review workflow.
SleekView Charts reads the same attachment rows and the same _ywcuf_files postmeta links. A Number card counts uploads received this month, a Donut breaks them down by post_mime_type, a Bar ranks products by upload count, and an Area trends upload volume per day. The dashboard sits next to the order list and tells the file-review team how big tomorrow's queue is before they open a single order.

Features
What SleekView Charts gives you for YITH WC Uploads
Queue visibility
One Number card counts uploads received in the current month by aggregating the YITH-linked attachment rows. The file-review team reads the queue size as a single KPI instead of opening orders one by one to estimate workload.
File-type mix
Donut of uploads by post_mime_type reveals whether customers send PDFs, JPEGs, or PNGs. The mix drives downstream automation choices: which files need an OCR pass, which need a print-resolution check, which need a manual eyeball.
Per-product hotspots
Horizontal bar ranks products by upload count. Print-on-demand stores find the SKUs that drive the file-review workload, and signage businesses see which products attract the most customer artwork without any custom query.
Audience
Who builds YITH Uploads dashboards with SleekView
Print on demand
File-review teams read the upload Number and file-type Donut before each shift. Staffing matches the day's actual upload volume, and OCR or resolution-check automation routes by mime-type bucket.
Agencies and intake
Brief-based intakes (logos, banners, signage) chart per-product upload counts so the operations team knows which intake forms need a redesign or extra examples to reduce file-format mistakes.
Operations leadership
Daily upload Area trends feed weekly ops reviews. Spikes around campaigns and downturns around holidays both become visible without anyone exporting CSVs from the order screen.
The bigger picture
Why customer uploads deserve a dashboard
Customer-upload workflows turn a WooCommerce order into a brief, and most stores manage them like a stack of paper memos: one order, one bell icon, one manual review. YITH Uploads persists every file as a clean WordPress attachment linked to its order through a single postmeta key. The data shape is excellent, but the default admin treats it as a per-order convenience instead of a measurable operational signal.
Stores running print-on-demand SKUs, signage products, embroidery, or brief-based services all reach a scale where the file-review queue needs staffing decisions, not just per-order vigilance. SleekView Charts reads the YITH attachment rows and the _ywcuf_files postmeta links and renders the four cards that turn the workflow into a dashboard. Uploads this month as a Number, file types as a Donut, top-upload products as a Bar, and daily volume as an Area trend.
The plugin already collects the files. The dashboard makes the workload predictable.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView Charts for YITH WC Uploads
Yes. YITH supports multiple file uploads per product on the same order, each linked through the _ywcuf_files postmeta key as a serialized list. SleekView Charts expands the list into per-file rows so a Number card counts files (not orders) and the Bar ranks by file count per product accurately.
 Yes. The wp_posts attachment row carries the file path in _wp_attached_file, which SleekView reads against the filesystem to compute size on the fly (or against the _wp_attachment_metadata serialized array for cached size). A Bar chart of average upload size by product reveals which SKUs eat the most disk.
 Yes. Under HPOS the order link lives in wc_orders_meta rather than postmeta, but the meta_key (_ywcuf_files) is identical. SleekView Charts detects HPOS automatically and joins to the right table without configuration.
 Yes. The plugin stores the moderation outcome (accepted, declined, pending) as postmeta on each attachment. A Donut groups by the outcome key so the file-review team measures decline rates and quality issues without manual tallying.
 Yes. wp_posts is indexed on post_type and post_date. SleekView Charts aggregates server-side and caches per-card results, so a store with thousands of monthly uploads renders the dashboard in well under a second with caching enabled.
 Yes. The plugin allows uploads on products with zero price (often a sample or consultation request). The attachment rows still link through _ywcuf_files, so the dashboard charts paid and free uploads identically, or filters to one or the other for separate workflows.
 Yes. Each chart exports aggregated rows to CSV, and the underlying SleekView table view exports the per-upload rows including file URL, order ID, customer, and mime type. File-review handoffs and external print-shop briefs both pull from the same export.
 Yes. Uploads attach to the parent product or to the specific variation depending on how the field is configured. SleekView Charts reads the variation_id from the order item meta, so a Bar chart breaks down by variation when the workflow demands per-variation file review.
