Bricks sites accumulate layouts quickly
Bricks Builder stores layouts in two places: pages with Bricks designs use the _bricks_page_content meta key on the standard pages post type, while reusable templates, headers, footers, archives, sections, live as the bricks_template post type. The default Bricks admin presents pages and templates on separate screens, which is fine until you have dozens of each and need a combined view. SleekView merges both into one inventory with a Type column to slice on.
The Conditions column is the Bricks-specific value that makes this view earn its keep. Bricks templates carry conditions arrays describing where each template applies: entire site, specific post type, specific archive, specific page. Without a tabular surface, those conditions are buried inside a modal in each template's editor, invisible until opened. SleekView summarises the conditions array into a readable column so a single sort or filter answers questions like which templates apply to the blog archive, which apply globally, and which have no active conditions at all.
Production Bricks sites use this view for template audits and client handoffs. The audit finds overlapping headers, duplicate footer variants left over from A/B tests, and archive templates targeting taxonomies that no longer exist. The handoff hands a client a clear inventory of every Bricks layout with author, condition summary, and last-edit timestamp, so a new agency or freelancer inherits real documentation rather than reverse-engineering the build from the editor.

Features
What SleekView gives you for Bricks Builder
Templates and pages together
Headers, footers, archives, and pages share one sortable table with a Type column to slice by. The full Bricks inventory in one query.
Conditions made visible
See which posts and archives a template applies to without opening the conditions modal. The summary column makes overlap obvious at a glance.
Inline edits
Rename, reslug, toggle status, and reorder layouts without leaving the table. Metadata work becomes a single pass instead of a per-row editor visit.
Audience
What Bricks teams use SleekView for
Template audits
Group by type to spot overlapping headers, footers, or archive layouts ready for cleanup. The duplicate-template problem becomes solvable in one view.
Client handoffs
Hand a client a clear inventory of every Bricks layout with author, status, conditions, and last edit. Real documentation instead of reverse-engineering.
Site rebuilds
Tag and export pages and templates when planning a redesign or migration. Each row becomes a rebuild ticket with conditions included.
The bigger picture
Why Bricks production sites need template inventory
Bricks Builder pairs an excellent visual editor with the standard WordPress list-table admin, which is the right product decision for setup and the wrong one for ongoing maintenance. Real Bricks production sites accumulate templates faster than most owners realise: a header for the marketing pages, a different header for the blog, a third header tested for a campaign and never removed, plus archive templates per taxonomy, single-post templates per post type, and section libraries for reusable components. Within eighteen months a site can carry sixty templates, of which only twenty are actively used.
The conditions modal that Bricks uses to scope each template is good in isolation and unhelpful for inventory work, because it requires opening each template to see where it applies. Without a tabular view of conditions, overlap and obsolescence are invisible. SleekView puts the conditions on the table, the same way it puts last-edit and author on the table, so the cleanup question becomes a sort instead of a click-through audit.
Production sites move from sixty messy templates to twenty intentional ones, and from an opaque template store to a documented inventory clients can read.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView for Bricks Builder
No. Visual edits stay in the Bricks editor, where the _bricks_page_content data is owned. SleekView edits the metadata around layouts, title, slug, parent, status, menu order. The split keeps Bricks in charge of design and SleekView in charge of inventory work.
 It uses the bricks_template post type for reusable templates and the _bricks_page_content meta key on standard pages, the markers Bricks uses internally. Anything Bricks considers its own surfaces in the SleekView, including custom-named templates.
 Yes. The conditions array Bricks attaches to each template is summarised into a readable column you can sort and filter on. Filter by a specific condition (entire site, post type, archive) and the templates targeting that scope appear together, which is the cleanest way to find overlap.
 No. Rows are virtualised, so a thousand templates render as quickly as a hundred. Reads run on indexed meta keys, and writes use the standard WordPress save path, so sites with extensive Bricks inventories perform comparably to sites with light inventories.
 Yes. The standard duplicate action is wired up as a row action so you can clone a template inline. Useful when starting a new variant from an existing one without leaving the inventory view to do it through the Bricks admin.
 SleekView focuses on layout posts (pages and bricks_template entries), not Bricks global classes. Global classes live in the Bricks settings panel and are managed there. The inventory view is for the post-level content, which is where audits and handoffs need to land.
 Yes, indirectly. If a template references another template via a component link, the relationship can be exposed as a derived column by parsing the _bricks_page_content payload. Useful when planning a rebuild that needs to track which components depend on which.
 Remote-fetched templates do not store local content beyond a reference, so they appear as rows but with empty content payloads. The reference is enough to surface them in the inventory and confirm which remote sources are still in use.
