SleekView Kanban for Trello for WordPress
Trello for WordPress mirrors boards, lists, cards, members, and labels into custom tables. SleekView Kanban reads those tables and renders a real drag-and-drop board grouped by list, with full member, label, and due-date support.

Trello data in WordPress already, give it a real board
Trello for WordPress mirrors your boards into a clean set of custom tables. Cards live in trello_cards with id, name, desc, idList, idMembers, due, dueComplete, and labels on every row. Lists sit in trello_lists ordered by pos, members in trello_members, boards in trello_boards. The default plugin admin shows a vertical scroll of cards by sync time, not by list.
SleekView Kanban reads those same tables and groups trello_cards by idList so the columns match your Trello board exactly. Lists keep their pos ordering, so To Do is on the left and Done is on the right just like in Trello. Card fronts show name, members joined from trello_members, the due date with a green check when dueComplete is true, and the colored label pills from the labels column.
Drag a card from Doing to Done and SleekView updates idList on the row, then queues the change for the next Trello API push. Cards with no due date render without the date pill. Archived cards are filtered out by default through the closed column. If you reorder columns in Trello, the next sync refreshes pos and the WordPress board re-sorts to match on next render.

Features
What SleekView Kanban gives you for Trello for WordPress
Real label pills on every card
SleekView parses the labels column on trello_cards and renders the same colored pills you see in Trello. Filter by label and the board narrows so a single campaign or theme is easy to focus on.
Members on the card front
Joins idMembers to trello_members so cards show real avatars and names. Filter by one member to scope the board to a single owner, useful for one-on-ones or weekly planning sessions inside WordPress.
Due dates with completion state
Shows due on the card and a green check when dueComplete is true. Overdue rows turn rose so cards that slipped are obvious at a glance in the column header summary.
Audience
Where a Trello board inside WordPress beats the synced list
Editorial calendar inside the CMS
Group Trello editorial cards by list and embed the board on a private WP page so writers drag posts from Pitch to Drafting to Live without leaving WordPress.
Client work tracking
Filter to one client board and one member, then embed the result on the client portal page so they see live work-in-progress without a Trello seat.
Weekly planning
Open a per-member board and drag cards from Doing back to To do for next week, or onto Done, in under a minute per person.
The bigger picture
A board view where the writing already happens
Most teams that connect Trello to WordPress are doing it because the work lives in WordPress: posts being drafted, pages being launched, campaigns being scheduled. The default plugin solves the sync problem and stops there, leaving a flat synced list that nobody enjoys reading. SleekView Kanban gives you the board view inside the CMS, with list order preserved, label pills rendered, and members and due dates on every card, exactly like Trello renders it.
Drag a card to Done and the change flows back to Trello on the next sync push so the board and the source stay aligned. Embed the same board on a frontend page and you get a project status view for clients or executives without giving them Trello seats. The result is one less tab to keep open, one less context switch in a working day, and a board that lives next to the content it tracks.
For agencies running their workflow out of WordPress, this is the difference between Trello being a sidecar tool and being part of the CMS itself.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView Kanban for Trello for WordPress
Yes. trello_lists carries a pos column that mirrors Trello's own ordering. SleekView sorts kanban columns by pos so To Do stays on the left and Done stays on the right, matching what users see when they open the same board in the Trello web app.
SleekView updates idList on the row in trello_cards and fires the plugin sync hook. The next push to the Trello API sends the change so the same card moves on Trello.com. If you also need to update pos for ordering inside a list, that is a SleekView option.
Yes. trello_cards has a closed column and the default kanban view filters where closed is false. Toggle the filter off if you want archived cards back for an audit view, or build a saved view that scopes the board to a specific archive window.
SleekView reads the labels JSON column on trello_cards, maps each label to its color, and renders the same pills you see in Trello. You can also filter the board by one or more labels so a single campaign or category collapses to its own narrowed view.
Yes. SleekView pages within each column rather than rendering thousands of cards at once. Set a per-column page size and scroll to load more inside the column. Filters and saved views are still the primary way to keep large boards usable.
Yes. Build two SleekView saved views, one scoped to client-visible labels and one scoped to internal labels. Embed each via a shortcode on its own page and gate the page by role. Same source data, two different audiences, no second sync to maintain.
Yes. idMembers on trello_cards is joined to trello_members so cards render real names and avatars. Filter by member to scope the board to one person, useful for daily standups or for one-on-one planning sessions held inside WordPress.
The next sync inserts the new list into trello_lists with a fresh id and a pos value. SleekView re-renders columns based on distinct idList values on next page load, so the new column appears without any configuration change in the kanban view.
