Checklists are great until something is silently failing
PublishPress Checklists enforces editorial standards before a post can publish: minimum word count, featured image, alt text, category required, custom checks. The meta box is excellent inside the editor but invisible everywhere else. Once a post is closed, you have no way to see whether it still meets the requirements without reopening it. After a few months, sites collect a long tail of posts that quietly fail the checks they once passed.
SleekView reads the same data PublishPress Checklists evaluates and joins it with the posts table, surfacing every post with its required-versus-passed counts and the failing items spelled out in a status column. Filter to failing posts in a specific post type to scope an editor's queue. Sort by author to see which writers consistently miss the same checks. Filter to passing posts updated more than a year ago to confirm that older content still meets the bar.
Requirement settings still belong in the PublishPress Checklists configuration page, where they should. SleekView is the reporting and triage view: the table that turns a per-post quality system into a site-wide quality dashboard.

Features
What SleekView gives you for PublishPress Checklists
Checklist audit
Every post with its required-versus-passed counts and failing items in one focused table, joined from the data PublishPress Checklists already evaluates.
Spot failing posts
Filter to failing or warning rows so editors can fix the right posts fast, instead of relying on contributors to remember to update older content.
Per-role views
Save views for contributors, editors and copy editors so each role opens the table with their own queue already filtered, no clicking required.
Audience
What Checklists teams use SleekView for
Editorial standups
Open the failing view in standup to assign cleanup work for posts close to publish, with author, post type and missing checks visible at a glance.
Quality reporting
Group rows by post type and pass count to track quality across the editorial team and share a weekly trend with the wider organisation.
Author coaching
Filter by author to coach writers who consistently miss the same requirements, with the failing checks spelled out as data rather than vague feedback.
The bigger picture
Why editorial quality needs a flat audit
Editorial quality systems quietly degrade unless someone audits them at the level of the whole site rather than the level of the next post. PublishPress Checklists is excellent at enforcing rules at publish time but does not, by default, look back. A site can ship a year's worth of posts that all met the checks at publish, then add a new requirement, and have hundreds of older posts that now silently fail.
The same is true when a checklist is tightened: every existing post needs reassessing, and without a flat view, that reassessment never happens. The reporting view turns the checklist from an at-the-door bouncer into an ongoing quality dashboard. Editorial leads can run a quarterly audit of failing posts, plan the cleanup, track progress and report on improvement.
That is the difference between a site that has editorial standards on paper and one where the standards actually hold across the back catalogue.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView for PublishPress Checklists
No. Rules and enforcement still come from PublishPress Checklists. SleekView is a flat reporting and triage view on top of the same evaluation results, designed for the cross-site audit and coaching workflows that the per-post meta box was not built for. Requirement configuration stays in the PublishPress settings page.
It reads the same evaluation data PublishPress Checklists computes internally rather than rerunning the checks. The table mirrors what the meta box would show if you opened each post, with the same pass and fail logic and the same custom requirement support that the plugin offers through filters.
Requirement settings stay in the PublishPress Checklists settings page where they belong, since changes there affect every post on the site. SleekView shows the results, not the configuration. From the row you can open the post editor to fix individual failures, but the rule definitions themselves are managed in one central place.
No. Rows are virtualised, so thousands of posts render instantly. Sorting and filtering happen against indexed columns, and the evaluation data is already cached by PublishPress Checklists, so SleekView reads precomputed results rather than rerunning checks during the table render.
Yes. Any filtered view can be exported as CSV with the columns and order you see on screen. Editorial leads typically use this to share weekly quality reports or to brief a copy editor on the exact backlog of failing posts before a sprint of cleanup work.
Yes. Any post type that PublishPress Checklists supports shows up in the same SleekView table. A site that runs checklists on blog posts, products and case studies can mix all three with post type as a filterable column or scope the audit to one type at a time.
Yes. Custom requirements registered through the PublishPress Checklists filters appear in the failing-items column with the same name they have in the meta box. Editors can filter to a specific custom requirement to find every post that fails it, useful when a new internal standard is added.
Yes. PublishPress Checklists allows different requirement strictness per role, and SleekView's evaluation data reflects that. The table shows the result that would apply to the post's current role, not a flat global pass-fail, which keeps the audit aligned with what the editor would actually see in the meta box.
