SleekView reads UpStream data directly from the WordPress database, so any version that writes tasks to the standard project meta works. Both the free core and the premium extensions expose the same task schema, which means the kanban renders the same way regardless of which UpStream license you run.

Yes. The drag handler updates the same status field that the UpStream admin uses, so the project progress percentage, milestone chart, and any client dashboard tied to that field refresh exactly as they would if a project lead changed the status from the task edit screen.

Yes. SleekView views are configuration only, so you can build one board filtered to one client and another to a different client from the same task data. Each user picks their default board, and admins can pin shared boards to the WordPress sidebar for the whole agency team.

SleekView reads distinct status values on every load, so a new status shows up automatically as its own lane at the end of the board. You can drag it into the right position in the workflow, assign a color, and decide which fields the lane's cards should surface, without rebuilding the view.

No. The drag handler updates the same status field that UpStream client dashboards read, so the client view refreshes on the next page load and never drifts from the live state of the kanban board in front of the project lead moving cards.

SleekView respects WordPress capabilities, so you can require a custom capability or a project lead role before a card can land in the completed column. Contributors see the lane and can scroll it, but the drop target rejects their card with an inline message instead of silently completing the task.

Each lane uses a virtual scroller, so a column with hundreds of cards still renders fast and stays responsive on a laptop. The lane header shows the exact count, and the filter bar at the top of the board narrows large lanes without resetting the scroll position or any cards already in motion.

SleekView reads and writes the existing UpStream project and task meta and never adds shadow tables for task data. View configuration sits in its own small options table, so uninstalling SleekView leaves every project, task, milestone, and client exactly where UpStream wrote it.
