Good afternoon, everyone. I’m here to seek advice and help regarding some issues with Bricks 2.4 beta3. I’ll list below with screenshots for visualisation:
These are expected parts of the new import/export workflow:
Style Manager’s own import/export actions are the two icons in the top-right toolbar.
Custom capabilities are managed separately under Bricks → Settings → Builder access, where you can import them, export all capabilities, or export an individual capability. This is why a compatible package can show Custom capabilities during import even though they are not listed in the Builder export bundle.
The template contains executable PHP and an {echo} tag. Bricks blocks executable template imports unless the importing user currently has code-execution permission. Please also check the importing user’s individual profile, as an individual Disabled setting overrides the Administrator role setting. The bricks/code/disable_execution filter can disable it as well.
SVG upload permissions and code-execution settings are security-sensitive, so they are intentionally excluded from exports and must be configured manually on the destination site (you can see the information notice on your second screenshot as well)
If the template still reports the permission error while importing as an Administrator, with code execution enabled and no individual override or disabling filter, please let us know the importing user’s individual Code execution setting.
About #3 - I’ve tried to turn off “Enable code execution” and “Administrator” in Custom Code > Code execution, but after import there is still an error.
In admin My Templates the import is working.
Hi Oleksii,
Matej is on vacation this week and won’t be around the whole time, so I’m stepping in for a bit
Turning off “Enable code execution” and the “Administrator” permission will keep this template import blocked.
Please enable both options again and save the settings. Then edit the importing user’s WordPress profile and make sure their individual Code execution setting is not set to Disabled, as that overrides the Administrator role permission.
If the error remains after that, please tell us the exact individual Code execution setting for the importing user and whether your site uses the bricks/code/disable_execution filter.
I double-checked everything you listed: Enable code execution is on, Administrator role has the code execution capability, no individual user override (profile shows “Enabled (Settings)”), and no bricks/code/disable_execution filter active on either site.
Still, the import fails with the same error even in a minimal reproduction: same-site export → import (not cross-site), Admin and Site Enhancements plugin deactivated, and on the Pantheon test site with the parent Bricks theme active (no child theme). The error is consistently:
Current user lacks the "bricks_execute_code" builder permission. | data: {"code":"bricks_forbidden_builder_permission","permission":"bricks_execute_code"}
Since this happens with nothing but core Bricks + WordPress in the loop, could this be a regression in 2.4 beta3’s permission check during import?
