YITH Checkout Manager lets stores add, remove and reorder fields on the WooCommerce checkout. The captured values land in wp_postmeta on each order (or wc_orders meta under HPOS): a referral source dropdown, a delivery instructions textarea, a custom company-size selector. The data is solid, the default admin shows each value as a string on a single order screen.

SleekView reads the same custom field meta keys and renders responses as a queryable table. Each order is a row, each custom field is a column. Filter to referral_source = google to read the cohort of Google-attributed orders. Filter to delivery_instructions LIKE '%leave at door%' to confirm the operational signal driving the ops complaint. Sort by order date to see how response distributions shift week over week.

The plugin keeps owning the checkout field UI. SleekView owns the response audit surface, so the data buyers have been entering for months stops hiding inside per-order screens and becomes something marketing and operations can actually query.

Adding fields to the checkout is easy with YITH Checkout Manager, the hard part is making the captured data useful. A referral source dropdown collected for two years is a goldmine of attribution, but only if someone can read it across orders rather than per order. SleekView reads the same custom field meta YITH writes and renders every order with custom field responses as a row, with each field as a real column.

Filters stack into a single query so the Google-attributed cohort, the special-delivery-requests audit and the missing-field-value review become saved views rather than CSV exports. The plugin keeps owning the checkout field UI, while marketing and operations finally get the cross-order surface their captured data always deserved.
