Has anyone found a method of inserting more advanced dynamic JetEngine values directly into a Bricks “Basic Text” widget?
For example, outputting the Post>Title with context “Related Items from [Relation name]” and filtering it with a callback? (All things which are done easily with a Dynamic Field widget)
The reason I am asking is I am a bit horrified to have discovered that JetEngine’s “Dynamic Field” Bricks element is generating a total of 4 separate HTML elements (3 divs and 1 p) for a single instance of dynamic text.
For comparison, a single Bricks “Basic Text” element with a dynamic value creates 1 HTML element.
Does anyone have any advice on how to achieve the same complexity of a Dynamic Field without generating all of the extraneous HTML elements?
Example code output for the same dynamic data generated with Dynamic Field widget (JetEngine) vs. Basic Text widget (Bricks):
//From Dynamic Field widget//
<div id="brxe-qiogdk" data-script-id="qiogdk" class="brxe-jet-engine-listing-dynamic-field" data-is-block="jet-engine/dynamic-field" data-jet-inited="true">
<div class="jet-listing jet-listing-dynamic-field display-inline">
<div class="jet-listing-dynamic-field__inline-wrap">
<p class="jet-listing-dynamic-field__content">**Durham, NC**</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
//From Bricks ‘Simple Text’ widget with data pulled dynamically//
<p class="brxe-text-basic">**Durham, NC**</p>
POSSIBLE SOLUTION (BUT INCOMPLETE):
I can avoid the ‘Dynamic Field’ widget altogether and instead generate the comparable shortcode from the JetEngine > Shortcode Generator.
Then, I can insert it using a ‘Rich Text’ Bricks widget. The Bricks ‘Basic Text’ widget evidently does not support shortcodes, but the ‘Rich Text’ widget does.
With this method, my final output was <div class="brxe-text">Durham, NC</div>
.
With this method, however, I cannot modify the HTML tag from the ‘Rich Text’ widget editor and am stuck with
