The notifications log becomes a real audit surface
PublishPress Notifications is the alert engine that ties the rest of the editorial suite together: send an email when a post moves to Assigned, ping the editor when a status changes to In Review, notify a writer when an editorial comment lands on one of their drafts. Every active newsroom ends up with dozens of workflows and a steady stream of notifications going out to authors, editors and managing editors. The plugin writes a row for every sent alert, but the default log paginates and offers little more than that.
SleekView reads the same log and renders it as a working table. Workflow, recipient user, recipient role, source post, channel and sent timestamp become first-class columns with sort, filter and inline navigation. An editorial admin can scope to one workflow to confirm it is firing, a managing editor can filter to a single recipient to understand their inbox load, and an agency PM can pull every send for a client this week in a single view.
The plugin keeps owning the workflow definitions and the send path. The table view owns the audit surface, so noisy workflows, lopsided recipient load and silent rules stop hiding inside paginated log screens.

Comparison
Default Notifications log vs SleekView
Default Notifications log
- Log paginates without cross-workflow filtering
- Recipient role is not exposed as a filter, only the user name
- Per-channel views require manual paging through the log
- Source post is shown as a link, not a sortable column
- Cross-workflow comparison requires a custom report
SleekView
- Workflow, recipient and source post as real sortable columns
- Recipient role rendered next to recipient for load analysis
- Filter by channel (email, Slack and others) in one click
- Inline navigation from any row to the source post or workflow definition
- Saved views per role: admin audit, editor load, agency client reporting
Features
What SleekView gives you for PublishPress
Every send as a row
The notifications log becomes a real table with workflow, recipient and post on every row. Counts, splits and audits use the same view as day-to-day investigation.
Load per recipient
Filter by recipient user or role to see exactly who is carrying the inbox cost of the workflow design. Tune rules before the editor-in-chief asks for an inbox cleanup.
Channel and workflow filters
Stack a workflow filter on top of a channel filter to confirm a newly enabled Slack channel actually picks up its share of alerts, or to scope to a single misbehaving rule.
Audience
Who uses SleekView for PublishPress Notifications
Editorial admins
Audit which workflows are sending what and to whom. Reconfigure rules with a real volume number behind the change rather than a vague sense that there are too many emails.
Managing editors
Pin a saved view filtered to one recipient role to see the actual inbox load on editors this week. Plan workflow tuning into normal sprint work, not as an emergency response.
Agencies
Report to each client on how much editorial signal their workflows are producing, with a per-workflow view ready to share rather than a one-off export.
The bigger picture
Why notifications need a real audit table
Editorial notifications are one of the most useful things an editorial workflow tool can do, and one of the easiest things to misconfigure. A small newsroom can ship a dozen workflows that quietly produce hundreds of emails a week, most of which go to the same two managing editors and most of which never get opened. The Notifications admin shows each workflow and each sent alert, but it paginates and does not compose.
SleekView reads the same log and renders workflow, recipient, source post and channel as sortable, filterable columns. The workflows themselves stay where they are in PublishPress. The team gains a measurable surface for what they are actually producing, which is the precondition for tuning notifications rather than turning the whole feature off.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView for PublishPress
PublishPress Notifications writes a row per sent alert with the workflow name, recipient user, source post, channel (email, Slack and so on) and timestamp. SleekView reads each of those columns as a sortable, filterable column.
 Yes. The notifications log structure is the same in the free and Pro tiers, just with a wider set of channels and workflow conditions in Pro. SleekView reads the same table either way.
 Yes. The log carries the channel for each sent notification, so email, Slack and any other configured channel appears in a channel dropdown. Useful for confirming a newly enabled Slack channel actually picks up its share of alerts.
 
Yes. Notifications join wp_posts for the source post, so adding a filter on post type or category narrows the whole view to that section.
No. SleekView only reads the existing notifications log; it does not sit on the send path. The audit runs against the same rows the plugin already writes for its own log screen, so there is no extra cost at delivery time.
 Yes. Filter recipient equals a specific user, sort by sent timestamp and the most recent alerts to that user land at the top. A single click jumps from the row to the source post.
 If the log captures send status (success, failure, retry), yes. SleekView reads whatever columns the log writes, so a status column with a Failed filter becomes available as soon as that data is captured.
 Yes. Any filtered view exports to CSV with the workflow, recipient, post and timestamp columns. Editorial and legal teams use this for retention audits or to brief a client on exactly which notifications were sent in a particular incident window.
