SleekView for Advanced Themer: Bricks workflow data as tables
Advanced Themer enhances the Bricks editor workflow with class management, variables, and code editor improvements. SleekView reads every Bricks-built post and exposes class and variable usage as filterable columns.

Bricks pages with Advanced Themer context
Advanced Themer extends Bricks' editor workflow but the underlying layout data still lives in _bricks_page_content_2 in wp_postmeta. Global class definitions live in wp_options under Bricks' own settings, and Advanced Themer adds management tooling around them. The default Bricks admin gives no surface for class usage per page or variable usage per layout.
SleekView reads every Bricks-built post plus the bricks_template CPT, joins them into one table, and exposes class references and variable usage as filterable columns. Filter to pages using a specific global class. Sort by last edited to find stale layouts. Pin a saved view for the class-audit pass so the next refresh takes minutes.
Inline edits to status, slug, and author route through standard WordPress update calls so any Bricks hooks fire normally. The layout array stays untouched (the visual editor remains the only place those edits happen) but surrounding metadata becomes editable per row. CSV export of the class-usage view gives the team a clean inventory of where each global class is actually used.

Features
What SleekView gives you for Advanced Themer
Class-aware filters
Find every page using a specific global class, every page using a CSS variable that's about to be deprecated, or every layout missing the new design-system class. Each audit becomes a saved view.
Pages and templates together
Bricks pages plus the bricks_template CPT in one filterable grid with class and variable usage visible. Audits stop bouncing between editor screens.
Inline edits
Update status, slug, and author from the row without opening Bricks. The layout array under _bricks_page_content_2 remains the Bricks editor's job.
Audience
Who uses SleekView for Advanced Themer
Design-system maintainers
Audit which pages still use legacy classes and which have migrated to the current design tokens. Class-usage filters make the migration plan concrete instead of approximate.
Agencies
Audit client Bricks sites for class drift, orphan global classes, and stale layouts. Per-client saved views make audit reports a recurring deliverable.
In-house teams
Track which Bricks pages use the new design system and which still use older patterns. Status, author, and class filters keep the rollout coordinated.
The bigger picture
Why Advanced Themer workflows need a class audit
Advanced Themer's class and variable workflow makes Bricks sites design-system friendly, which means most sites running it accumulate dozens of global classes across multiple campaign cycles and brand refreshes. Each refresh leaves classes behind: the old button style nobody removed, the deprecated card variant, the campaign-specific class that outlived its campaign. The default Bricks admin gives no surface for class usage per page.
The global-class library shows definitions but not which pages reference each class. Pages with legacy classes look identical in the admin to pages on the new design system. A queryable inventory turns the audit from a multi-day investigation into a half-hour pass through the grid.
Filter to pages using a legacy class and migrate them in batches. Find every page using a class about to be deprecated and review the migration plan. Agencies running Advanced Themer for clients use this audit during brand refreshes; design-system maintainers in-house use it as ongoing housekeeping.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView for Advanced Themer
Advanced Themer extends the Bricks editor but doesn't add its own custom tables. Layout data stays in _bricks_page_content_2 in wp_postmeta and global classes stay in wp_options under Bricks' settings. Advanced Themer adds workflow tooling around both. SleekView reads them directly.
No. SleekView surfaces class usage per page. Editing class definitions themselves stays inside Bricks or Advanced Themer's class manager, where the CSS controls and preview live. The grid handles status, slug, and author metadata around layouts.
Yes. A contains-text filter on _bricks_page_content_2 surfaces pages using a specific class name. Saved views per class help when you're rolling out a design-system change and need to find every page that still uses the old class.
A separate view compares class definitions (from wp_options) against class references (from the postmeta layout array) and surfaces classes defined but never used. That's the audit you run before pruning the global-class library.
Yes. Every saved view exports to CSV with visible columns. A common workflow is exporting the legacy-class usage list with last-edited dates and authors so the team can plan the migration page by page.
Yes. SleekView is read-mostly. Inline edits use the standard WordPress update path, so any Bricks or Advanced Themer hooks fire normally. The grid never touches the layout array or the class definitions in wp_options.
Yes. CSS variables and Bricks variables both live in the same layout array structure. Variable references are parseable the same way class references are, so a variable-usage column works alongside the class column.
Queries paginate with server-side cursors and the class-parse runs incrementally as rows load. Sites with thousands of Bricks pages and dozens of global classes stay responsive because the grid never loads more rows than the viewport needs.
