GDPR Cookie Consent by CookieYes is one of the most installed cookie banner plugins on WordPress. It stores its banner configuration in cli_cookie_bar_settings, runs an auto-scanner that classifies cookies into necessary, functional, analytics, performance and advertisement categories, and writes a consent log row per visitor decision with the chosen categories, the consent ID and a timestamp.

The plugin's admin focuses on banner configuration and the cookie scan report. The consent log itself is exposed as a flat list filtered by date and consent ID. Privacy officers who want to follow one consent ID across categories, isolate banner-template variants or hand a clean evidence pack to an auditor end up exporting that log to a spreadsheet.

SleekView reads the CookieYes log and bar settings directly. Sort by consent_date to see the last hour. Filter by category to follow opt-ins per type, by banner_template to compare variant performance, by consent_id to reconstruct one visitor's full decision. The plugin still owns the banner and the scanner. SleekView only adds the sortable triage surface.

GDPR Cookie Consent runs the banner, the auto-scanner and the per-decision log so well that millions of sites rely on it. The plugin's own consent log screen is fine for a single record lookup but not for a privacy review. Officers and agency leads want category-by-category filtering, banner-template comparisons and a way to share results with auditors who do not have WP access.

SleekView reads the same data CookieYes already collects and renders it as a sortable workspace. Same plugin, same banner, same log, but a surface that matches how DPIA evidence is actually produced.
