No. SleekView reads the existing post meta and report cache that MonsterInsights writes during its GA4 sync. The only write is the upvote increment, which lands on a meta key you choose so it sits next to the rest of the post data without touching MonsterInsights settings or the GA4 property at all.

Yes. The Upvote button supports guest votes with a per-IP and per-session lock to keep counts honest. If you would rather restrict votes to logged-in users or to specific roles like Editor or Contributor, you can flip that in the view settings without touching any code at all.

You map a review_status meta key when you build the view. SleekView shows a colored pill for each value, and any URL without a status simply renders without a pill rather than blocking the card from showing. Editors can update the status by editing the post or via a custom admin column.

Both. SleekView reads whichever post meta MonsterInsights has populated, so Lite users get a feedback board on the metrics Lite syncs, and Pro users get a board over the deeper engagement and conversion meta as well. The mapping happens at view setup time.

Yes. Every saved view has its own role and capability scope, so you can publish a public Top Posts wall on the homepage and a separate Editorial Triage queue that only Editors and Authors can see. Both views share the same MonsterInsights cache underneath the surface.

When the underlying post is deleted, SleekView removes the card on the next refresh. If the post is trashed rather than fully deleted, the card disappears from the public view but the upvote meta is preserved on the trashed post in case you restore it from the trash later.

Yes. Every SleekView is available as a shortcode and a Gutenberg block, so you can drop a Top this week view onto the homepage, embed a Needs update view on an internal Wiki page, or stitch several views into a single editorial dashboard with separate columns side by side.

SleekView paginates and sorts at the database level rather than loading every meta row into memory, so a site with thousands of posts and a deep MonsterInsights cache still renders the top of the feedback board in well under a second on a normal shared host. Aggregation queries hit indexed columns by default.
