BRICKS 2.3 is live

This release focuses on refining the parts of the builder you use every day while introducing a few powerful new capabilities to speed up your workflow.

Here are the highlights 👇

:clockwise_vertical_arrows: HTML & CSS to Bricks

Copy HTML and CSS from anywhere and paste it directly into the builder. Bricks automatically converts it into native elements, classes, and variables.

This makes it much faster to:

  • Use layouts from AI tools

  • Import UI snippets

  • Recreate existing designs without rebuilding everything manually

:pushpin: Pin Control Groups

You can now pin frequently used control groups so they stay accessible while you work.

  • Always visible at the bottom of the panel

  • Resizable pinned area

  • One-click pin/unpin

  • State remembered between sessions

A small change that makes daily editing much smoother.

:framed_picture: Image Gallery: Load More & Infinite Scroll

The Image Gallery element is now much more powerful.

  • Load More interaction (no additional AJAX calls)

  • Infinite scroll option

  • Control initial images and load amount

  • Responsive settings

Perfect for building fast-loading galleries that expand smoothly.

:magnifying_glass_tilted_right: New Query Filter Controls

Filtering just became a lot more flexible.

New controls for:

  • Select filters (search, multiple selections, advanced styling)

  • Radio & Checkbox styling

  • Range filters with decimal precision

  • Datepicker format control

These improvements make filters more powerful and easier to style.

:artist_palette: Color Manager Improvements

You can now reorder colors via drag & drop, making it easier to organize large palettes and keep frequently used colors accessible.

:boomerang: Real Native Parallax

Bricks now includes a dependency-free real parallax effect based on scroll movement.

Control:

  • Horizontal & vertical movement

  • Background speed

  • Effect start position

This creates smoother and more natural motion effects.

The new parallax controls are located within the “Transform” control group when editing an element.

:recycling_symbol: New 3D Transform Controls

Added support for “perspective()” and “scale3d()”.

Build more advanced 3D effects directly inside the builder UI.

Plus many usability improvements, accessibility refinements, and fixes across WooCommerce, WPML, search, components, classes, and more.
