Hi everyone,
I often needed to display code snippets nicely in Bricks, so I built a small plugin called “Bricks Code Box” and thought I’d share it here in case it’s useful for anyone.
It adds a new “Code Box” element inside Bricks with:
– Syntax highlighting (via Prism.js)
– Copy-to-clipboard button (accessible, with feedback)
– Optional line numbers
– Light/Dark themes
– Optional filename/title with icon
– Collapsible mode
– Adjustable max height and wrapping
The plugin integrates cleanly into Bricks (own element category, grouped controls, accessibility-friendly).
Download / GitHub:
It also includes auto-updates via GitHub using the Plugin Update Checker library, so you’ll get updates directly from the repo.
Requires:
– WordPress ≥ 6.0
– Bricks ≥ 1.9.x
– PHP ≥ 7.4 (recommended 8.1+)
I built this with a bit of help from AI 
— it was a quick weekend project, so please be kind if you find any rough edges!
Maybe something similar already exists, but I just wanted to share it in case it helps someone or gives others some ideas.
I’d really appreciate any feedback, improvements, or suggestions you might have.

Best regards,
