Choose destinations from the admin bar
- Open a Page or Template directly in Bricks, or open its list and select an item to edit with one click.
- Go to settings pages for Bricks-specific add-ons.
- Enable links to community sites, internal Bricks links, and external Bricks resources.
- External links open in a new tab. Use the provided new-tab icon to open site-specific menu items in a new tab.
Use classes and CSS in the editor
- Auto-select Class: When the selected element has a CSS class, enable the checkbox to automatically activate the first unlocked class in the classes panel.
- CSS Editor: Open a collapsible inline CSS editor in the Bricks element panel. It binds CSS and controls in both directions: editable CSS maps back to layout controls where possible, while properties that cannot be mapped are stored in the element’s Custom CSS field.
- BEM Classes: Use the action on a structure-panel layer to assign global classes in BEM format. A checkbox can move ID styles to the class.
- CSS Variables Context Menu: Right-click a CSS value input to insert a variable from registered custom properties. Hover over a variable for a live preview.
- Class Tooltip: Hold Shift or Cmd/Ctrl while hovering over an element in the structure panel to see its active CSS global classes.
