Education WP is a LearnPress-based theme, which means the actual data sits in LearnPress tables: learnpress_user_items tracks enrolment, lesson, and quiz progress, with metadata in learnpress_user_itemmeta. Courses, lessons, and quizzes are post types (lp_course, lp_lesson, lp_quiz). The default Education WP admin focuses on a friendly profile-per-student experience, which is fine for occasional review but painful for daily ops where you want to scan dozens of learners at once.

SleekView reads the LearnPress tables directly so course managers can build the views their workflows actually require. A per-student progress table joins learnpress_user_items for course, lesson, and quiz rows into one row per student per course. A stalled-learner report filters where status != 'completed' and start_time is older than a chosen threshold. A quiz grading queue surfaces attempts where graduation = 'in-progress' across the whole catalogue, sorted by oldest submission first.

Inline edits to status route through the LearnPress course-item API where supported, so completion hooks, certificate issuance, and integration notifications fire normally. Direct-table writes are available for back-fill scenarios where you do not want side effects. Multisite Education WP installations get per-subsite scoped views automatically.

Learning programs live or die by completion rates, and completion rates depend on early intervention with stalled learners. Education WP's default admin is friendly and profile-shaped, which is great for occasional one-off reviews and bad for the daily reality of scanning hundreds of learners across dozens of courses. The LearnPress tables underneath (learnpress_user_items, learnpress_user_itemmeta) are well-structured and indexed, so the data is ready for a list-shaped workspace, but the default admin doesn't expose them that way.

Instructors grading manually want a queue of pending submissions sorted by oldest first, not a per-quiz drill-down. L&D admins doing course design want per-question pass rates to identify ambiguous quiz items. Customer success agents want per-student histories visible during support calls without flipping between five screens.

SleekView's job is to expose the underlying tables as a composable workspace so each role can build the view their job actually requires. Same data, no extra add-ons, dramatically more flexibility for the people who run the program day to day.
