Issue #1 - Is it just me… or is there no control for “Post Status” for Query Loop?
It appears that query loop of Posts is defaulting to only ‘Published’, where is “Draft”?
Sometimes you need to show drafts on the frontend (when building a dashboard for client site on the FRONTEND).
Issue #2 - While building Query Loop, there really should be a way to “temporarily disable” a query! For example, let’s say you do all of the settings for a query including filtering taxonomy, filtering meta. And it doesn’t get the results you want, but you’re close. Now, you want to try and revise that query trying some other combination of filtering, but this 2nd attempt is not working and you want to go back and refine your first attempt.
But now you have to start all over and re-enter all of the previous things you’ve set (IF you can remember)!
It would really help to be able to simply “disable” a whole query while working on another, this way one can work on one while not losing what was already set on another.
I know there is a history state, but should you have made changes somewhere else in the builder then that is reverted.
The method in the video works. BUT, I can only imagine having this in a template or having multiple instances of this in a site or should that bricks element class name ever change or chaining class names ever changes… then this would be an even larger issue! Definitely not “maintainable”, which is very important.
I get what you mean. BUT, this is a builder… and a control for “Post Status” really should be present.
As far as creating sections and constantly having to do conditionals to show / hide, I would NEVER commit to developing that way. When you use a builder or any tool for that matter that in a breath says “less clicking” “more control” etc, but yet you have to do things like continuously on/off conditionals just to view code execution or not, then there is a problem with “the tool” itself.
Look at Elementor (which I really don’t like for obvious reasons), they and other builders have some stuff thats kinda standard… being able to on/off visibility with a click as you are working is paramount!
For example say you are working on a section that alot of inner working, layout, design etc. You duplicate that section to do another version albeit styling etc.
Having to conditionally on/off one or the other to visualize in the builder is ridiculous.
When you can simply click an “eyeball” toggle and it show or hides that “layer” in the builder… simple.
