Let me start off by saying that this is by far the best page builder I’ve used! Everything makes total sense and is very intuitive. After only a few months of using Bricks, I am already using it to make client sites.
I just wanted to share some various feedback of things I’d like to see in Bricks. None of these things are major changes, mostly just small quality of life things here and there.
And before I continue, It could totally just be user error and me not knowing how to do things, but with that being said.
1. Add a minimum-height input to Bricks forms Textarea field.
The textarea field on Bricks forms already has just a “height field,” however I’ve run into some problems with this. If you set a fixed value there, there are issues with form resizing. It can be resized smaller, but not bigger. I have found a work around for this with a couple lines of css:
.brxe-form textarea {
min-height: 200px; /* adjust to taste /
resize: vertical; / allow user to resize */
}
It’d be nice to see a minimum-height field be implemented
2. Move the new style manager into a smaller, moveable and resizable dashboard like window.
I am loving the new style manager in the recent update, however something I missed about the old one is being able to see my changes take place live. Now, I can’t because the new style manager covers the entire screen. I think changing the style manager to an almost pop-up dashboard window that users can drag around would be amazing.
3. Allow section shape dividers to be changed at different breakpoints
I love how simple the section shape dividers are, I just wish they had that extra little layer of functionality. Right now, changes you make to a shape divider propagates throughout each breakpoint. I would like to see the functionality where you can, for example, set the shape divider height be 100px at the desktop breakpoint, and 50px at the mobile breakpoint. And definitely be able to hide the shape divider at different breakpoints. I realize css can just be used for this custom functionality, but it would be nice to see in bricks.
That’s about it. I’m sure I’m forgetting to mention some things, and will undoubtedly have more feedback in the future. But for now it’s just these small things. But as I said, Bricks has been amazing in my short time of using it!
