WP Firewall sits in front of WordPress and decides what reaches PHP. Every blocked request, sanitised payload, and rule hit goes to its event log with the rule identifier, the action, the source IP, the request URI, the HTTP method, and the timestamp. The default admin paginates that data row by row, which is fine for case-by-case lookups and gets thin when an operator needs to see which rules fired most this week across which URLs.

SleekView reads the WP Firewall event log directly. Sort by stamp to see the last hour. Filter by rule ID to follow a single signature, by action to isolate blocks from sanitisations, by IP to track one attacker, by URI to pinpoint the targeted endpoints. The same data shows up in saved views the team reopens with one click instead of rebuilding filter sets every morning.

The firewall keeps owning the rules, the engine, and the request-time decisions. SleekView only adds the triage surface inside WordPress, so the rich event log WP Firewall already writes becomes a queryable workspace next to the rest of the admin.

WP Firewall is precise about per-request decisions, which is what an admin wants from a WAF. The trade-off is that the resulting log is presented row by row. Anyone asking which rules fired the most this week, or which IPs hit which URLs around a specific minute, has to export to CSV and re-tool.

SleekView reads the same log table the firewall already writes and renders it as a sortable, filterable workspace inside WordPress. The firewall keeps deciding what reaches PHP. The team gets a triage surface with saved views, role scoping, and CSV exports that honour the active filter set, so the value of the log finally matches the precision of the events captured in it.
