Promotion Events Calendar tracks marketing promotions (sales, launches, partner activations, content drops) as a custom post type with campaign meta: start and end dates, channel, status, owner, and category. The plugin renders the result as a calendar on the front end or a marketing-team-facing admin calendar, where one month is the largest unit you can view at a time.

SleekView reads the same CPT and the same meta and turns them into a real grid. Title, channel, status, owner, start date, and end date sit as real columns next to any custom field the team added. Saved views split the work by channel, by owner, or by week, and inline edits write to the same meta keys the calendar reads.

The grid does not change how Promotion Events Calendar runs the calendar. The plugin still owns the calendar view, the meta fields, and the front-end render. SleekView reads the rows and surfaces them in a sortable, filterable list the campaign team can plan against every Monday.

Promotion Events Calendar is built around the calendar metaphor, and the calendar is the right surface for a single month at a time. Campaign managers rarely think in single months. They think in channel mixes, owner workloads, status queues, and weekly cadence.

Treating promotions as rows in a sortable, filterable grid turns the calendar from a visual layout into a planning surface. Saved views become the rituals of the role (Monday active sweep, weekly draft review, owner-workload check), and the team spends less time clicking through the calendar to discover what was already in the meta. The calendar stays the visitor and team view of any one month; the grid becomes the recurring review.
