Robo Gallery stores each gallery as a robo_gallery_table custom post type. Each gallery row carries layout meta (Grid, Slider, Cube, Lightbox), theme variant, attachment IDs through post meta, and standard wp_posts fields for publish date and modified date.

SleekView reads the robo_gallery_table CPT and its meta and exposes layout, theme variant, image count, and timestamps as real sortable columns. Filter to Slider galleries with fewer than ten images, sort by publish date, or pull every gallery in a specific category. The CPT list keeps showing shortcodes for editors who need them, the table handles the catalogue.

Inline edits go through save_post, so the plugin's caches and any pages referencing the gallery shortcode refresh on the next render. Bulk-swap layouts across a section, retitle for a campaign, or move galleries between categories without opening each post.

Robo Gallery is a long-running shortcode-driven gallery plugin used on visual sites that need more than the WordPress media library can offer. The trade-off is that the plugin treats each gallery as a CPT row with shortcodes alongside titles, and no cross-gallery surface for layout distribution, image counts, or freshness. Sites that have used Robo Gallery for years end up with dozens or hundreds of galleries across multiple layouts, some empty, some forgotten, and no way to see the catalogue at a glance.

SleekView reads the robo_gallery_table CPT and meta and exposes layout, image count, and timestamps as one sortable grid. The Robo Gallery editor keeps its role for designing individual galleries, the table handles the catalogue management role the CPT list was never built for.
