Bricks Extras elements render inside Bricks' layout array, which lives in _bricks_page_content_2 in wp_postmeta. Each Extras element has its own identifier in the array (mega menu, advanced accordion, content switcher, animated text). The default Bricks admin shows pages and the bricks_template CPT as ordinary posts, with no filter to find pages using a specific Extras element.

SleekView reads every Bricks-built post plus the bricks_template CPT, joins them into one table, and exposes Bricks Extras element usage as filterable chips. Filter to pages containing a specific Extras element. Sort by last edited to find stale layouts. Pin a saved view for each audit type so the next pass takes minutes rather than hours.

Inline edits to status, slug, and author route through standard WordPress update calls so any Bricks or Extras hooks fire normally. The Bricks layout array stays untouched (the visual editor remains the source of truth for that) but surrounding metadata becomes editable per row. CSV export of an audit slice gives the team a clean inventory of every Extras-touched page on the site.

Bricks Extras is the largest commercial Bricks add-on by element count and the sites running it typically use a dozen or more of its elements across the site. Each element accumulates pages over time: the mega menu shipped two years ago that nobody refreshed, the content switcher on a feature page that's now out of date, the marquee on a campaign hero that ended months ago. The default Bricks admin gives no surface for any of this.

The bricks_template CPT mixes templates with no Extras filter. Pages with Extras elements look identical in the admin to pages without. A queryable inventory turns the audit from a multi-day investigation into a half-hour pass through the grid.

Filter to pages using a specific Extras element and review them for relevance. Find every Extras mega menu in use and confirm which is the live one. Agencies running Bricks Extras across client sites use this audit as a routine handover deliverable; in-house teams use it as quarterly housekeeping.
