Entries as a real table, not a CPT post list
MetForm Pro stores each submission as a post of type metform-entry, with field values written to wp_postmeta in long format. The default admin uses the standard WP post list UI, which means cross-form audits, payment-status filters, and bulk inline edits aren't first-class moves. Field values are visible only after opening each entry's edit screen.
SleekView reads the metform-entry CPT and pivots wp_postmeta at query time, using the parent form's field configuration to label each pivoted column. Each submission becomes one row with named columns. Add the parent form ID as a column and you get a unified inbox: contact forms, lead-gen forms, and order forms in one workspace.
Filter by post_date, parent form, or any meta field in combination, then save the result as a named view scoped to a role. Edits route through MetForm's entry path where supported, with direct update_post_meta writes as a fallback and conflict detection on post_modified.

Features
What SleekView gives you for MetForm Pro
Pivot postmeta into columns
MetForm writes each field value as a row in wp_postmeta. SleekView pivots them at query time using the parent form's field config, so each entry becomes one row with named columns.
Combine filters across forms
Mix the parent form ID, post_date, payment meta, and field-level filters in a single saved view. Cross-form inboxes and per-form audits share the same engine.
Inline-edit without opening posts
Change a field value, flip a status, archive entries across many rows. MetForm's entry path handles validation; direct update_post_meta writes cover the rest with conflict detection.

The bigger picture
Why MetForm entries need a real table view
MetForm Pro fits Elementor sites that want forms without leaving the visual builder. Storing entries as a CPT plus postmeta makes the data flexible but also pushes operational work back onto the WP post list UI, which isn't designed for cross-form triage. Teams running MetForm at scale (lead-gen pages, payment-enabled forms, content-gated downloads) need one inbox across forms and bulk operations on entry state.
The default screen handles single-form audits but stops short of the cross-form workspace those teams actually need. SleekView treats the metform-entry CPT as a queryable source where pivots are cheap and filters compose, which means support, finance, and form admins each get a workspace tailored to their workflow without writing SQL.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView for MetForm Pro
Yes. Any value written to wp_postmeta for the metform-entry post type can be pivoted into a column. That covers text, email, number, select, checkbox, date, file upload, and payment fields. The parent form's field configuration provides the labels and types so columns are typed correctly.
Yes. SleekView writes through MetForm's entry update path where supported, falling back to update_post_meta with conflict detection on post_modified. The write respects the field's original type and any sanitisation hooks the plugin registers.
SleekView reads the unique meta_key values for entries belonging to the selected form (or across forms) and exposes each as an addable column. The pivot runs at query time using a join, so new form fields appear immediately without a rebuild step.
Yes. Add the parent form ID as a column and either filter to a subset of forms or leave it open. Only meta keys shared across the selected forms become broadly useful columns; SleekView labels each so the chooser stays sensible.
 
Payment-field values (Stripe, PayPal, transaction IDs, status) live in wp_postmeta as standard meta keys. SleekView surfaces them as sortable, filterable columns and cross-form payment audits filter on payment-status meta without per-form scripting.
Upload-field meta stores the file URL or attachment ID. SleekView renders these as filename cells linked to the file or media library, and the filter "has attachment" works on the meta presence.
 
MetForm's data retention settings affect wp_posts and wp_postmeta directly. SleekView reflects the resulting state, so deleted or anonymised entries show whatever placeholder MetForm wrote during processing.
The query joins wp_posts and wp_postmeta with form-aware filters applied first. For large tables, scope a view by date range and the column chooser only inspects meta keys in that window, keeping the UI responsive.
