How to Showcase CCT Meta Fields Using Dynamic Tag in Bricks

From this tutorial, you will learn how to display the CCT meta fields using dynamic tags in Bricks.

Before you start, check the tutorial requirements:

All the fields added to CCTs will be added as dynamic tags in Bricks; let’s check it in action.

Adjust Content in Bricks

Open the needed template in the Bricks builder. In our case, we will place content in the Listing template so it can later be displayed in the Listing Grid element.

Add an element that contains the Dynamic Tags settings. For instance, we put the Heading on the page.

Now, press the “lightning” button to open the Dynamic Tags options.

Each CCT has its own section in the list. So, if you have several CCTs and meta fields attached to them, the list will include all of them under a separate section.

Once selected, the tag will be displayed as the {je_cct_article_cct_title} value. Here, “article” is the name of the CCT, and “title” is the title of its field.

However, the value itself will be shown on the front end.

Place the additional content to the editor if needed. When you finish, hit the “Save” button in the upper right corner.
