SEO Redirection stores its rules and logs in dedicated database tables: redirect rules with source URL, target URL, status code (301, 302, 307) and hit counter on each row, plus a 404 log table that records every unmatched request with referrer, user agent and timestamp. The plugin's admin lists rules in a flat wp-list-table and exposes a 404 log screen. Both surfaces work for spotting one rule at a time and collapse during a real migration audit.

SleekView reads the same tables directly and renders the result as a sortable audit grid. One row per rule, with columns for source, target, status code, hit count and last hit. Filter to 302 rules that should be 301s, sort by hit count to retire dead weight, scope to rules created during a specific migration window. The 404 log becomes a second source, queryable per row, so the holes a migration left behind stop hiding inside a log screen.

Because the data lives in standard MySQL tables on the same database, queries hit the plugin's existing indexes. The plugin keeps owning request matching, redirect responses and 404 logging; SleekView adds the operational audit surface the flat rule list cannot offer.

SEO Redirection does the operational work: it watches incoming requests, matches them against rules and either redirects or logs a 404. The plugin's flat rule screen and log table are fine for a small site that rarely migrates, and they collapse under any install that lives through a real content move. A migration leaves five hundred fresh rules, half of them never get hit, the 404 log fills up with edge cases that nobody sees because nobody opens the log screen, and the team finds out months later that traffic to a key landing page has been bleeding into a soft 404.

SleekView reads the same rules and the same 404 logs and renders the result as a sortable per-rule grid with source, target, status code, hits and last hit. Filters stack so the 302-to-301 cohort, the zero-hit cleanup queue and the top-redirect list become one-click views. The plugin keeps owning redirect behaviour; SEO leads and developers get the audit surface the flat rule list cannot offer.
