MasterStudy splits its data across wp_stm_lms_user_courses, wp_stm_lms_user_lessons, wp_stm_lms_quizzes, and the courses post type. The default admin shows enrolled students inside each course detail screen, so a marketplace with a hundred instructors has no global view of who is learning what. Quiz attempts live in their own table with no real grid for review, and order data sits in a third tab.

SleekView builds one grid keyed on user-course pairs. Each row joins the WordPress user, the course post, lesson completion percentage from the progress table, the latest quiz score, the linked order amount, and the instructor record. The same row is editable: progress, status, and order amount all update inline through MasterStudy's standard hooks so emails, certificates, and points stay consistent.

Saved views handle the marketplace's recurring questions. Instructors open a private view of their own students. Cohort managers track a filtered batch through the program. Sales pulls active enrolments with order and refund state for clean weekly reporting. Multilingual catalogues render course titles in the active locale, and Pro subscriptions join into the same grid for membership-based schools that need both signals on one screen.

A MasterStudy site that started as a single course rarely stays that way. By the time there are twenty instructors and a thousand learners, the per-course student list inside each course is no longer a feature — it is the bottleneck. Marketplace owners cannot see which instructors are growing or struggling.

Sales cannot tell paid enrolments from refunded ones without exporting four CSVs. Cohort managers running a six-week intensive lose a day each Friday rebuilding the same dashboard. The default admin layout reflects the early days of the plugin, when one course meant one screen.

SleekView reflects the actual data model: enrolments are rows, courses are posts, instructors and orders join in. Once that shape is on one grid, every recurring question — who finished this week, which instructor has the highest quiz averages, which orders need refunding — becomes a saved view rather than a manual investigation. The marketplace stops feeling like ten separate plugins and starts behaving like one system.
