Add filter for posts/pages of Bricks content in the WordPress dashboard

You can add an extra filter in the WordPress dashboard to filter just Bricks posts, pages or other custom post types. Click on the Bricks link and see just Bricks content.

You can choose to show all the post types that have Bricks content rendered. Add the code below to your functions.php file, this will add a filter for posts and pages.

// Add 'Bricks' filter link to Posts and Pages lists
add_filter( 'views_edit-post', 'bricks_filter_view' );
add_filter( 'views_edit-page', 'bricks_filter_view' );

function bricks_filter_view( $views ) {
    global $typenow;

    $meta_key = '_bricks_page_content_2';

    $args = [
        'post_type'     => $typenow,
        'post_status'   => 'any',
        'meta_key'      => $meta_key,
        'meta_compare'  => 'EXISTS',
        'fields'        => 'ids',
        'nopaging'      => true,
    ];

    $bricks_posts = get_posts( $args );
    $count = count( $bricks_posts );

    $class = ( isset($_GET['bricks']) && $_GET['bricks'] === '1' ) ? 'current' : '';
    $url   = add_query_arg( 'bricks', '1', admin_url( "edit.php?post_type={$typenow}" ) );

    $views['bricks'] = sprintf(
        '<a href="%s" class="%s">Bricks <span class="count">(%d)</span></a>',
        esc_url( $url ),
        esc_attr( $class ),
        $count
    );

    return $views;
}

// Apply filtering to post/page list when Bricks filter is used
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', function( $query ) {
    if (
        is_admin()
        && $query->is_main_query()
        && isset($_GET['bricks'])
        && $_GET['bricks'] === '1'
    ) {
        $meta_query = (array) $query->get('meta_query');
        $meta_query[] = [
            'key'     => '_bricks_page_content_2',
            'compare' => 'EXISTS',
        ];
        $query->set( 'meta_query', $meta_query );
    }
});

To add additional custom post types add an extra filter, for example if you had a portfolio custom post type you can use:

add_filter( 'views_edit-portfolio', 'bricks_filter_view' );

Now you can easily see posts that been edited in Bricks.
