SleekView Feedback for Formidable Forms Views
Formidable Forms already collects every entry with full field metadata and a built-in Views builder. SleekView Feedback reads those rows directly and renders one card per entry, sorted by vote count, with a working Upvote button that writes back to the source entry row.

Formidable entries as cards, not as Views HTML
Formidable Forms stores every entry in wp_frm_items with values in wp_frm_item_metas. The Views add-on lets you template that data into HTML, which is powerful but quickly turns into bespoke markup that no two sites maintain the same way. The piece that has always felt awkward is rendering those entries as a public, votable feedback board without writing a custom View template from scratch.
SleekView Feedback skips the template work and reads the Formidable Forms tables in place. You point a view at any Formidable form, pick the field that holds the title, the field that holds the category, the field that holds the status, and a numeric field that tracks votes. The board renders one card per entry, sorted by vote count, with status and category pills painted from your existing Formidable dropdown choices.
Because the source of truth stays in Formidable Forms, every Action, Confirmation, and integration (Stripe, PayPal, Mailchimp, Zapier, AWeber) keeps firing on the same entry. Moderators triage in the standard Formidable entries screen, and the public board reflects every status change without a sync step or an extra dashboard.

Comparison
Hosted board versus native SleekView render
Hosted Canny style board
- Hosted boards charge per admin seat and per integration on most pricing tiers
- Submissions live on a third party server even though Formidable Forms keeps them local
- Single sign-on with WordPress users only ships on the higher hosted plan tiers
- Bridging Formidable entries to a hosted board needs Zapier or a custom webhook
- Two admin dashboards means moderators duplicate every status decision by hand

Features
What SleekView Feedback gives you for Formidable Forms Views
Upvotes that update the entry
Each Upvote click increments the numeric field you mapped on the Formidable Forms entry row through the official API. Reports, exports, notifications, and integrations see the new value on the same row with no sync delay.
Filter by field choices
Any select, radio, or checkbox field becomes a public filter on the board. Visitors narrow by category or status using buttons rendered from your existing Formidable choices with the colors you set in the editor.
Spam protection stays put
Akismet, hCaptcha, and the standard Formidable spam settings keep working untouched. SleekView Feedback respects entry status, so anything flagged spam or trashed disappears from the public board automatically with no extra config.
Audience
What Formidable Forms teams ship with the Feedback view
Public product roadmap
A Formidable form becomes a vote sorted roadmap. Customers submit ideas, the team sets status, and the board ranks the queue by community demand without paying for a separate Canny seat.
Community directory
Communities use a Formidable form for member submissions. SleekView Feedback turns that source into a public, votable directory of profiles, projects, or events with category and status pills baked in.
Agency client request board
Agencies collect change requests with a Formidable form. SleekView Feedback exposes a private, password protected board where stakeholders upvote what should ship next from the queue.
The bigger picture
Why this matters for Formidable Forms teams
Formidable Forms is usually picked when the data model gets complex. Repeaters, lookups, calculations, and cross form joins all keep entries on the WordPress database where the site already lives. Teams pay a small premium for that structured data because it integrates cleanly with the rest of WordPress.
Adding a hosted board just to make a slice of that data public usually undoes the decision: it pulls entries out of Formidable, doubles the moderator workload, and routes user content through a vendor that may or may not still match the price next year. SleekView Feedback removes all of that overhead. The board reads the existing Formidable entries, the Upvote button writes back to the same entry row, and the moderation queue stays in the standard Formidable entries screen your team already uses.
For agencies, the practical impact is faster delivery on a common ask, no extra retainer for board administration, and a clearer story for clients about where their entry data actually lives.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView Feedback for Formidable Forms Views
Yes. SleekView Feedback uses the official Formidable API to increment whichever numeric field you mapped as the vote counter. The new count lands on the same Formidable entry row your team triages, so reports, exports, and integrations stay accurate.
The view stores a per-entry cookie and an optional IP hash, and uses the logged-in user ID when one is available. You can also gate upvotes to logged-in members only, which is the typical pattern for membership sites that want trusted votes.
Yes. SleekView Feedback only renders the existing entries, so every Formidable Action, confirmation, conditional rule, and integration continues to fire on the underlying submission exactly as before. Your automation pipeline stays untouched.
Yes. SleekView Feedback respects the Formidable entry status, so anything trashed or marked spam is hidden automatically. For an explicit approval gate, add an Approved yes or no field and tell the view to only show approved entries.
Yes. SleekView Feedback paginates server side and uses indexed queries against the Formidable tables. You can pick the page size, choose numbered pagination or a load more button, and page loads stay fast even on very large entry sets.
Yes. SleekView Feedback reads URL parameters for category and status, so a link like ?category=Bug&status=Open opens the board with those filters applied. The same pattern works for sharing in Slack, email, or social posts.
Yes. Place several SleekView blocks on the same page, each pointed at a different Formidable form, and wrap them in a tab block. Each board is independent, so one Ideas page can host Bugs, Features, and Wishlist tabs without merging the sources.
Yes. SleekView lets you save multiple views on the same Formidable form. Build a private Kanban for internal triage with status columns, and a public Feedback board with upvotes, all pointing at the same entries with different layouts and visibility.
