FluentComm extends the WordPress comment system with threading, reactions, and richer moderation queues. Core comment data still lives in wp_comments and wp_commentmeta, with FluentComm's reaction counters and thread metadata stored in its own tables. The plugin's admin shows a comment list in a familiar shape, but for developer-led documentation and SaaS marketing sites with hundreds of comments per week, pure list-table moderation gets thin fast.

SleekView reads the comment tables directly and exposes thread depth, reaction counts, last reply time, and parent post title as proper columns. A single "pending moderation" view shows comment excerpt, author, parent post, reaction count, and time-in-queue. Filters combine comment status with comment type (review, reply, anonymous) and post type so you can find every pending review on a docs page from the last 48 hours.

Inline edits to comment status (approve, spam, trash) route through WordPress's own wp_set_comment_status() function, so any FluentComm hooks plus standard transition_comment_status listeners fire as expected. Bulk moderation across hundreds of comments happens in one screen instead of one page at a time. The view coexists with the native comment screen, which remains available for thread-level editing.

Developer-led sites tend to underestimate how much moderation work their comment systems generate. A docs page that ranks well draws follow-up questions, version-specific corrections, and a steady trickle of spam. A SaaS pricing page draws "does this work with X" comments and occasional outright spam.

FluentComm adds threading and reactions on top of the standard WordPress comment system, which gives the front end a much better experience, but the admin still leans on a list-table view that was designed when comments were a smaller part of the web. Moderation pages click through one by one. Reaction-driven prioritization requires opening each thread.

Cross-cutting questions like "which docs pages are drawing pending reviews" don't have a saved view. SleekView reframes the comment queue as a working table. Reactions, thread depth, and parent post titles become columns; filters stack so triage is one saved view rather than a click pattern; status changes route through core WordPress functions so every hook a developer site relies on still fires.

The comment data stays in wp_comments and FluentComm's tables; the moderation UI finally matches the shape of the work.
