SleekView for MembershipWorks: members and events as tables
MembershipWorks hosts member records on its own service and syncs a mirror into wp_postmeta on each linked WordPress post. SleekView reads that mirror so you can run cohort, level, and renewal views inside WP Admin without bouncing to the hosted dashboard.

Members and events in one workspace
MembershipWorks runs as a hosted SaaS with a WordPress integration plugin that mirrors member, event, and form data into the site. The plugin doesn't create dedicated custom tables; instead it stores the linkage and mirrored fields as postmeta on related wp_posts entries (member-linked pages, event pages, form submissions) using keys prefixed with _mw_.
The default workflow has admins doing most operational work in the MembershipWorks hosted dashboard. The WordPress side shows the public-facing pages and lightly-mirrored data, but cross-cutting questions like which active members RSVPed to last month's event require either filtering inside the hosted UI or jumping between two systems. There is no native WP-Admin view that joins the mirrored member data to event signups.
SleekView reads wp_posts joined to the _mw_ postmeta and exposes the mirrored fields as proper columns: member status, level, renewal date, last event attended. Writes through SleekView update the local meta only; canonical changes still happen in the hosted dashboard, which we are transparent about. The unlock is read-side: a single sortable table inside WP Admin for ops, fundraising, and event teams.

Comparison
Default MembershipWorks admin vs SleekView
Default MembershipWorks admin
- Most ops work happens in the hosted dashboard, not WP Admin
-
Mirrored data on the WP side lives only in
wp_postmeta - Joining members to event RSVPs needs two systems
- No WP-Admin filter for active members + recent event
- Local lookups by level or renewal date go through the hosted UI
SleekView
-
WP-Admin table of every mirrored
_mw_member record - Joined view of members and event-page meta
- Filter by level, status, renewal window without leaving WordPress
- Save views per fundraising / events / membership team
- Read-side unlock; canonical writes stay in MembershipWorks
Features
What SleekView gives you for MembershipWorks
Mirrored member registry
Every linked wp_posts row with _mw_ meta as a single table: name, email, level, status, renewal date, last activity. Read directly from the local mirror.
Members + events join
Join member meta with event-page meta to see who attended what. Filter active members who attended any event in the last quarter for outreach.
Renewal-window filters
Filter by renewal date range to build the upcoming-renewal cohort. Sort by status for the lapsed-member follow-up list. All in WP Admin.
Audience
Who uses SleekView for MembershipWorks
Fundraising teams
Filter mirrored member records by level and lapsed status for renewal-campaign outreach. Export the cohort straight from the WP-Admin view.
Events team
Cross-reference event-page _mw_ RSVPs with member level to plan seating, comp tickets, and follow-up. One view, both data sources.
Member support
Look up a member by email and see their level, renewal, and recent event activity inline without opening the hosted dashboard for every ticket.
The bigger picture
Why hosted-mirror plugins benefit from a WP-Admin view
MembershipWorks chose the hosted model for good reasons: a maintained directory, baked-in payments, and admin convenience for non-technical organisations. The trade-off is that the WordPress side of the integration is mostly mirroring, with limited operational tooling inside WP Admin. Teams that primarily live in WordPress for the rest of their site work end up bouncing between two dashboards for routine member questions.
SleekView changes that by treating the mirrored postmeta as a real data source: one view of every linked record, with level, renewal, and event-attendance as proper columns. Fundraising can build renewal cohorts without opening the hosted UI, events can plan around member tier from the same screen, and support can look up a member during a chat without context switching. The canonical write path stays where it belongs (the hosted dashboard), and SleekView is transparent about that.
The unlock is purely read-side, and that turns out to be exactly what most operational queries need.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView for MembershipWorks
Partially. The canonical record lives in the hosted MembershipWorks service, but the WordPress plugin mirrors linked-page data into wp_postmeta using _mw_ prefixed keys. SleekView reads that mirror, not the hosted API.
Inline edits in SleekView update the local _mw_ postmeta only. To change the canonical record, edits still go through the MembershipWorks hosted dashboard. We don't try to write back to the hosted service through the WP plugin.
Freshness depends on the MembershipWorks sync cadence the site has configured. SleekView shows whatever is currently in wp_postmeta, so the view is as fresh as the last sync the plugin ran.
Yes, when event pages have _mw_ meta that records RSVPs or attendance. SleekView joins the member-page meta to event-page meta on the shared identifier and exposes both sides as columns.
The query is a standard postmeta join with a meta_key prefix filter, so it uses the existing meta index. Sites with several thousand mirrored member records run smoothly.
SleekView views are gated by WordPress capability. A fundraising lead can see all renewal columns while a volunteer coordinator only sees event-related columns, each saved as a separate view.
Yes. Any filtered view exports as CSV. The export includes the joined columns, so a renewal-campaign list comes out with email, level, and renewal date in one file.
If MembershipWorks introduces a new _mw_ meta key, add it as a column without code. SleekView's column picker enumerates the meta keys present on the matched wp_posts rows.
