Imagify writes per-attachment optimization data to wp_postmeta under _imagify_data, _imagify_status, _imagify_optimization_level, and a _imagify_thumbs_data serialized array containing the savings per generated size. Quota and global settings live in wp_options under imagify_settings. The default media library shows an Imagify column with status badges, but no list view, no sort by savings, and no way to filter to errors only across thousands of attachments.

SleekView reads the Imagify postmeta and joins it to wp_posts. Each row can show the attachment, optimization level (normal, aggressive, ultra), status, original size, optimized size, percentage saved, webp generation flag, and the timestamp of the last optimization. Sort by percentage saved to find low-yield assets that might benefit from a higher level, filter to errors to retry them in bulk, or group by post type to see where Imagify pays off most.

SleekView never calls the Imagify API itself. Inline actions invoke Imagify's own reoptimization function so quota consumption and the plugin's hooks behave the same as the standard admin. Saved views like Errors only or Saved less than 20 percent can be scoped per role, useful for handing optimization ownership to a developer without exposing the API key stored in imagify_settings.

Imagify is built on a global promise: ship images at the smallest possible size with the chosen optimization level, save bandwidth, raise Core Web Vitals. The default dashboard reports on that promise as a single total, which is fine for executive reporting and the wrong shape for everyday triage. The interesting story lives one level deeper.

Which assets failed to optimize. Which produced savings under ten percent and would benefit from a higher level. Which templates push the most quota and which return very little for it.

SleekView turns Imagify's postmeta into exactly that view: one row per attachment, columns for level and status and savings, filters for the cases that matter. Errors sort to the top, low-yield assets cluster by post type, and editors maintain their own corners of the library without ever seeing the API key. The plugin keeps doing the compression; SleekView just makes the ledger queryable.
