This custom query setup for Bricks and JetEngine <\/em>allows displaying only specific items dynamically based on the configured query conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using JetEngine <\/em>Query Builder instead of the native Bricks query options is also important for compatibility with other JetPlugins <\/em>features, such as JetSmartFilters<\/em><\/a>, custom queries, pagination<\/a>, and Load More<\/strong> functionality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As an example, we will create a \u201cPosts\u201d query<\/a> that outputs only the \u201cfull-time\u201d vacancies and display them in a Bricks template together with the \u201csalary\u201d meta field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Activate Post Types<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n

Initially, make sure that the needed Post Types<\/strong> that you want to display in the Query Loop<\/strong> are enabled in the WordPress Dashboard > Bricks > Settings <\/em><\/strong>directory. For example, we need the \u201cJobs (Vacancies)\u201d Custom Post Types<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>to be activated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"post<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t forget ot press the \u201cSave Settings<\/strong>\u201d button below.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Build a Query<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/svg><\/div>
Warning<\/div>

If you want to display Custom Content Type<\/a> (CCT<\/strong>) items in the Bricks Query Loop<\/strong>, you need to use JetEngine<\/i> Query Builder<\/strong> because CCT<\/strong> queries are not available in the native Bricks query options.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In this example, we will create a custom query<\/a> in JetEngine <\/em>for the Bricks Query Loop<\/strong>. Go to WordPress Dashboard > JetEngine > Query Builder <\/em><\/strong>and hit \u201cAdd New<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the new query editor is opened, enter the query\u2019s Name<\/strong>. In our case, \u201cFull-time job query.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, select the needed Query Type<\/strong>. In this guide, we will use \u201cPosts Query.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n

<\/svg><\/div>
Things to know<\/div>

Optionally, you can set a Query ID<\/strong> if you plan to connect filters, sorting, or pagination later. For a basic Query Loop<\/strong> setup, it is not required. <\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\"general<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Scrolling down to the Posts Query <\/strong>section, we pick the \u201cJobs (Vacancies)\u201d Post Type <\/strong>in the General <\/strong>tab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"general<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Then, we open the Tax Query <\/strong>tab and press the \u201cAdd new<\/strong>\u201d button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We want to filter the posts by the term of the \u201cVacancy Type\u201d taxonomy<\/a>, so we select it in the Taxonomy <\/strong>field.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After that, we select the \u201cSlug\u201d option as the Field <\/strong>so the query will search posts by the taxonomy term slug. Then, we specify the slug itself (\u201cfull-time\u201d) in the Terms <\/strong>field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"tax<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s all for our query customization. Make other customizations, and when ready, press the \u201cAdd Query<\/strong>\u201d button.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Create a Template<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n

It\u2019s time to build a template with the Query Loop<\/strong>. So, open the WordPress Dashboard > Bricks > Templates <\/em><\/strong>directory and press the \u201cAdd New Template<\/strong>\u201d button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enter the title and select the needed template type (for example, \u201cSection\u201d). Once done, open the template in the editor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the Bricks editor, first, we add a two-column layout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the first column, we add a Dynamic Field<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>element. We leave the default \u201cPost\/Term\/User\/Option Data\u201d Source <\/strong>and the \u201cTitle\u201d Object Field<\/strong>. This way, you will now see the page\u2019s title, but it will be changed once we select our query in the further steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"post<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

For this, click on the Section <\/strong>to see its settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here, activate the Bricks Query Loop <\/strong>toggle and press the \u201cinfinity<\/strong>\u201d sign next to the Query <\/strong>field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"query<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In the opened pop-up, select the \u201cJetEngine Query Builder\u201d Type <\/strong>to use the custom query in Bricks. <\/strong>This ensures compatibility with JetSmartFilters<\/em>, sorting, and \u201cLoad More\u201d features. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then click outside the pop-up to close it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"jetengine<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In the JetEngine Queries <\/strong>field, select the query you have built earlier. In our case, it\u2019s \u201cFull-time jobs query.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After selecting the query, the queried <\/strong>items will appear in the editor preview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"query<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

You can switch to the STYLE <\/strong>tab of the element settings to make some changes to the element\u2019s style if needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"style<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

We also change the Margin <\/strong>settings of the section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"section<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Moving to the second column, we add another Dynamic Field<\/strong> here. This time, the Source <\/strong>is set to \u201cMeta Data\u201d and the Meta Field <\/strong>to \u201csalary.\u201d This is a JetEngine<\/em> meta field<\/a> that stores the salary of the offered vacancies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"salary<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

We also work on the STYLE <\/strong>settings of this Dynamic Field<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"salary<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Publish the template when ready.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Check the Result<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n

Now, you can open the front end and check the result. In our case, all the full-time jobs are displayed here, along with the offered salaries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FAQ<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Why don\u2019t filters, sorting, or Load More work with my Query Loop?<\/strong><\/strong>

This usually happens when JetSmartFilters<\/em>, sorting, or pagination features are not correctly connected to the JetEngine <\/em>Query Builder Query Loop<\/strong>.Make sure of the following:– The Query Loop<\/strong> is set to JetEngine <\/em>Query Builder<\/strong>, not the native Bricks query;– The correct provider is selected in JetSmartFilters<\/em>;– The Query ID<\/strong> from JetEngine <\/em>Query Builder<\/strong> is used (not the Bricks CSS ID<\/strong>);– Sorting <\/strong>and Load More<\/strong> elements are also connected to the same JetEngine <\/em>Query ID<\/strong>.The Query ID<\/strong> (JetEngine<\/em>) controls query behavior, while the CSS ID<\/strong> (Bricks) is only used for styling and layout purposes. They are not interchangeable.<\/p> <\/div>

Which JetSmartFilters provider should I choose?<\/strong><\/strong>

If you are using JetEngine <\/em>Query Builder<\/strong>, select JetEngine <\/em>as the provider. If you are using the native Bricks Query Loop<\/strong>, select Bricks as the provider.<\/p> <\/div>

Can I use other Query Types with the Bricks Query Loop?<\/strong><\/strong>

Yes. JetEngine <\/em>Query Builder <\/strong>supports different types of queries, so you can use any of them with Bricks Query Loop<\/strong>.<\/p> <\/div>

Why are there no items displayed in the Query Loop?<\/strong><\/strong>

Check our Bricks Query Loop Shows No Results with JetEngine Query Builder<\/strong><\/a> troubleshooting guide to fix the issues that may have appeared during the customization process.<\/p> <\/div>

Should the JetEngine Query ID match the Bricks CSS ID?<\/strong><\/strong>

No. The JetEngine <\/em>Query ID<\/strong> and the Bricks CSS ID<\/strong> are different settings used for different purposes. The Query ID<\/strong> identifies the custom query created in JetEngine <\/em>Query Builder<\/strong>, while the CSS ID<\/strong> identifies the Bricks element itself.<\/p> <\/div>

Can I display JetEngine meta fields inside the Query Loop?<\/strong><\/strong>

Yes. Use the Dynamic Field<\/strong> element with the \u201cMeta Data\u201d Source <\/strong>and select the needed JetEngine <\/em>meta field.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n
