Saint Interactius – patron saint of hidden UI elements

Dear Bricks team,
Today, while building what was supposed to be a simple “load more” button interaction, I had a spiritual awakening.

As I desperately searched for the elusive “Interactions” tab, my eyes glanced upon a mysterious icon… a glowing figure, arms gently folded, halo above the head. It wasn’t a lightning bolt.
No.
It was something higher.

I had found him.

Saint InteractiusPatron Saint of Hidden UI Elements.


For context:

  • Interactions in Bricks are hidden behind an unlabeled icon
  • That icon is not intuitive, not documented well, and sure as hell doesn’t scream “click me to unleash query loop magic”
  • On top of that, buttons that trigger actions don’t even have a cursor: pointer by default. Because why would we want users to know something is clickable, right?

So here I am:

  • Praying to Saint Interactius for guidance
  • Manually assigning CSS IDs to query loops
  • Writing JavaScript just to hide a button after content is loaded
  • And adding cursor: pointer; like it’s 2007

Can you change the category of this to a bug. It either belongs under bugs or feature requests.

Hi,
Welcome to the forum, and thank you for your creative contribution :slight_smile:

Due to the position of the icons, it is impossible to have a label that is always visible, but there is a tooltip:

And this is the interactions documentation, which is pretty extensive from my point of view and can be found by searching for “load more”:

What exactly are you missing? Admittedly, the search results are not perfect, but we are already working on an academy overhaul.
