SleekView for Bricks Ultimate: Ultimate elements and pages as tables
Bricks Ultimate adds custom elements (advanced post grids, fancy headings, image hotspots) that render inside Bricks' layout array. SleekView reads every Bricks-built post and exposes Ultimate element usage as filterable chips.
♾️ Lifetime License available
Bricks Ultimate audits in one queryable table
Bricks Ultimate elements render inside Bricks' layout array, which lives in _bricks_page_content_2 in wp_postmeta. Each Ultimate element has its own identifier in the array (post grid, fancy heading, image hotspot, custom slider). The default Bricks admin shows pages and the bricks_template CPT as ordinary posts with no filter for Ultimate-touched layouts.
SleekView reads every Bricks-built post plus the bricks_template CPT, joins them into one table, and exposes Bricks Ultimate element usage as filterable chips. Filter to pages containing a specific Ultimate element. Sort by last edited to find stale layouts. Pin a saved view for each audit type so the next pass takes minutes.
Inline edits to status, slug, and author route through standard WordPress update calls so any Bricks or Ultimate hooks fire normally. The layout array stays untouched (that's the visual editor's job) but surrounding metadata becomes editable per row. CSV export of an audit slice gives the team a clean inventory of every Ultimate-touched page on the site.

Features
What SleekView gives you for Bricks Ultimate
Element-aware filters
Find every page using the Ultimate post grid, every page running the image hotspot, or every page with the custom slider. Each audit becomes a saved view, not a JSON search.

Inline edits
Update status, slug, and author from the row without opening Bricks. The layout array stays the Bricks editor's job.

The bigger picture
Why Bricks Ultimate sites need an element audit
Bricks Ultimate is a popular Bricks add-on shipping a wide catalog of extra elements, and the sites running it typically use a handful of Ultimate elements across the site at any time. Each element accumulates pages over years: the Ultimate post grid on a blog archive that nobody re-checked, the image hotspot on a feature page that's been redesigned around it, the custom slider on a hero that someone replaced but never removed. The default Bricks admin gives no surface for any of this.
The bricks_template CPT mixes templates with no Ultimate filter. Pages with Ultimate 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 Ultimate element and review them for relevance. Find every Ultimate post grid in use and confirm grid configurations match the design system. Agencies running Bricks Ultimate across client sites use this audit as a routine handover; in-house teams use it as quarterly housekeeping.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView for Bricks Ultimate
Ultimate elements render inside Bricks' layout array, which sits in _bricks_page_content_2 in wp_postmeta. Each Ultimate element has its own identifier in the array. SleekView parses element usage per page from a single read of the postmeta key.
No. SleekView surfaces metadata around layouts. Ultimate element settings (post grid sources, hotspot positions, slider items) are still edited inside the Bricks visual editor. The grid handles status, slug, and author metadata around layouts.
 
Yes. A contains-text filter on _bricks_page_content_2 surfaces pages using specific Ultimate element identifiers like the post grid pro or the image hotspot. Saved views per element help with migration audits.
Yes. The bricks_template CPT is read alongside pages and the same JSON parse runs on its layout array. So an Ultimate post grid used in an archive template shows alongside one used on a page.
Yes. Every saved view exports to CSV with visible columns. A common workflow is exporting the post-grid usage list with last-edited dates and authors so the team can audit grid configurations across the site.
 Yes. SleekView is read-mostly. Inline edits use the standard WordPress update path, so any Bricks or Ultimate hooks fire normally. The grid never touches the layout array, which keeps the Bricks editor as the only source of truth for layout content.
 
Yes. All three add-ons render their elements inside the same _bricks_page_content_2 array. SleekView shows them as separate columns or filter chips so you can see, on the same row, which Bricks add-ons each page depends on.
Queries paginate with server-side cursors and join on the indexed _bricks_page_content_2 postmeta key. Sites with thousands of Bricks pages stay responsive because the grid never loads more rows than the viewport needs.
