Bricks Addon

The Listdom Bricks Addon integrates Listdom with the Bricks editor so you can design listing layouts using Listdom-specific Bricks elements, plus Listdom dynamic tags like {lsd_post_title} to pull listing fields, author details, social links, and custom field values.

Design Listing Cards in Bricks

Create reusable Listing Card layouts and select them as the style in supported Listdom skins.

Use Listdom Dynamic Tags

Insert dynamic tags like {lsd_price} and {lsd_author_display_name} anywhere Bricks supports dynamic data.

Requirements

• Bricks Theme: Bricks must be installed and activated.
• Minimum Bricks Version: Bricks 2.2 or newer is required.
• Listdom: Listdom must be installed and activated.
• License: This add-on uses Listdom’s licensing system and works only while the license is valid, including trial and grace states.

Attention

If Bricks is not installed and activated, or its version is below the minimum requirement, the Bricks integration will not run.

Where to Find the Bricks Builder Integration

After activation, the add-on adds a management area under the main Listdom menu:

• Listdom -> Bricks Builder: Opens the Layouts manager where you create Bricks-powered Listdom layouts.
• Layouts Access: Layouts are restricted to administrators with the manage_options capability.

Creating a Layout

Use the steps below to create a layout that Listdom can use as a style for listing-card skins and, optionally, infowindows.

1. Go to Listdom -> Bricks Builder.
2. Click Add Layout.
3. Enter a title for the layout. This title appears later in Listdom style dropdowns.
4. Design the layout using the Bricks editor.
5. In the Layout Type meta box, choose the correct type.
6. Click Publish.

Note

To design single listing pages, use Bricks -> Templates instead of the custom Layouts post type under Listdom.

Layout Type

Each Bricks layout includes a required Layout Type setting that controls where Listdom can use it.

• Listing Card: Use for grid, list, and slider skins that render listings as cards.
• Infowindow: Use for map info windows.

Note

“Infowindow” layouts require the Advanced Map add-on.

Using Bricks Layouts as Style in Listdom Skins

After you publish Bricks layouts, Listdom exposes them as styles in supported skins.

• Supported Skins: Any skin that supports card layouts can use a Listing Card layout as its style.
• Infowindow Skin: If you use the infowindow skin, Listdom can use Infowindow layouts as the style.
• Style Label: Bricks styles appear as {Layout Title} (Bricks).

Bricks Elements Provided by Listdom

In the Bricks editor, Listdom adds elements under two groups:

• Listdom: Shortcodes, profiles, users, and taxonomy shortcodes.
• Listdom Listing: Listing-building elements intended for listing cards and infowindows.

Astuce

If the Bricks editor preview looks empty for Listdom Listing elements, make sure you have at least one published listing so the builder can load preview data.
