PressPermit writes role exceptions to wp_pp_exceptions and wp_pp_exception_items, with permission groups assigned through wp_pp_groups. Each exception carries a target item (post, term, or post type), an operation flag (read, edit, publish, delete, assign), an agent reference (user, role, or group), an inheritance scope (item, children, descendants), and a created-on timestamp. The default admin lists exceptions in a sortable table grouped by item type, fine for one-off grants and weak when a lead coordinates a quarterly review.

SleekView reads the same PressPermit exception rows the plugin admin queries. Pick a derived pressperm_state field that buckets exceptions by review workflow, operation flag, and agent reference and every exception becomes a card grouped under Requested, Reviewing, Approved, or Active. Card fronts show the target item title, the operation, the agent, and the inheritance scope so a lead can prioritize approvals from one board.

Dragging a card writes a review tag into the PressPermit exception meta. A move to Active commits the exception row so the permission applies on the next page load. The PressPermit enforcement layer continues to honor the live exception row.

PressPermit lets admins grant rich exceptions per post, term, and post type to users, roles, and permission groups, which is exactly what makes the default exception list hard to use for review. The sortable table is great when an admin knows the exception they need to grant and almost useless when a lead is coordinating a quarterly review across newsroom sections, internal docs, and marketing landing pages. Most teams end up exporting exceptions to a spreadsheet, tracking requested changes in a separate tab, and applying them to the live site days later.

The spreadsheet drifts immediately. New requests keep landing in PressPermit without a workflow tag, the spreadsheet records approvals nobody applies, and by quarter's end the two views disagree on which agents can edit which sections.
