Hi, sorry for the late reply!

Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce the issue. Would you be so kind as to provide a screencast using https://jam.dev showing and explaining what’s happening?

Do you have access to a play area? I have prepared an example.

You need to remove the Basic text widget, that is, just leave the Title widget

No, you would have to send me the login credentials and a link to this thread by e-mail to help@bricksbuilder.io.

I sent an email and also recorded a video

Hi @clickfusion63 ,

We are able to replicate the issue now and it will only occurs if your entire page only has 1 nested {echo:} dynamic tag in Heading element. You wouldn’t encounter this issue if you use any dynamic tag in any other element. In a live site, there should be more dynamic tags used in other elements like {post_id} etc.

However, we already recorded this into the bug tracker :slight_smile:

Jenn

Hi,

We’ve fixed this issue in Bricks 1.9.8 beta, now available as a manual download in your account (see changelog).

Please let us know if you are still experiencing issues.

As with any beta release, please do not use it on a production or live website. It is only meant for testing in a local or staging environment.

Currently I am running version 1.10.3 and it seems the issue is still present:

Hi,

thank you for the report. Does this happen for you also on a front end, or only in a builder?
Also, it’s the same if you change the inner dynamic tag, to {post_title} for example?

Thanks,
M

Using {post_title} in the echo function does work.
Using {query_results_count_filter:xzrqtu} on its own also works.

Only when nesting {query_results_count_filter:xzrqtu} in the echo function it breaks.

Hi,

ok, thank you for confirmation. As per Dynamic Data article, the echo tag does not support double quotes, and because query_results_count_filter returns a custom element, that includes double quotes, it will not work.

Hope that clarifies the situation.

Best regards,
M

Thanks that clarifies, how would I get this to work? What I need is to parse the result from query_results_count_filter to detremene the text output.

Could query_results_count work for you? That one will return only the number, so I guess it should work.
And the output parses only on page load anyway?
