Auto Translate Addon plugins handle bulk machine translation by tracking jobs in wp_options entries (a queue prefix and per-job rows) and tagging posts with translation status meta in wp_postmeta. The default admin offers a settings screen and a small job log, but no consolidated view of pending jobs, retries, or failures across thousands of posts.

SleekView reads the job queue and the per-post meta directly, then surfaces every job with source post, target language, provider, status, retry count, and last-attempt timestamp as first-class columns. Saved views remember the slice each role works through, like pending-in-German or failed-this-week.

Edits route through the addon's API where supported (retry job, change status, cancel), so the same hooks that fire from the plugin's interface still fire from a SleekView row. There is no direct queue rewrite that would bypass the addon's expected flow.

Auto-translation addons are queue management problems wearing a translation hat. The plugin pushes jobs through providers and writes results back to posts, which is what most days look like. The audit question lands when failures stack up or a launch needs every language ready by Friday.

The default job log shows recent activity and paginates older rows out of sight, hiding the failed Tuesday batch that needs a retry. Reading the queue directly closes that gap. An engineer can filter to status failed in a chosen provider and surface the addon's own error metadata inline for triage.

A QA reviewer can work through pending-review jobs from a saved view sorted by age. Finance can chart job volume per provider to forecast next month's bill. The plugin keeps doing the queue work; the audit layer is what makes the queue manageable in production.
