This quick follow-up release introduces a new filter bricks/allowed_html_tags that allows you to extend the list of allowed HTML tags.
Starting at version 1.10.2, Bricks restricts the allowed HTML tags according to WordPress core. So, certain HTML tags such as form are no longer allowed out-of-the-box.
If you see an “HTML tag not allowed” error message next to your “Custom tag” value, please programmatically add this HTML tag to the list of allowed HTML tags.
Only allow HTML tags that are considered safe, as anyone with builder access can use them!
You now have individual HTML/PHP, CSS, and JavaScript controls. This not only lets you better organize your code, but it also adds the following functionality:
Auto-Close Brackets
Auto-Close HTML Tags
Error Syntax Highlighting (PHP, JavaScript)
Vim (enable under: Bricks > Settings > Builder > Code Control: Vim)
All while retaining 100% backward compatibility with your existing code elements.
The builder received a new set of interface icons . The “View on frontend” icon is now always visible. We reordered the builder toolbar icons slightly. There’s a toolbar setting indicator when the active element has pseudo-classes. Give it a bit of time to get used to
Quick hotfix release as Bricks 1.9.7 caused an issue with adding/updating the postmeta for users without builder access. This was caused by one of the new security additions in 1.9.7.
