Bricks Active Template Condition

I saw the following question on the bricks facebook group and thought I would do a very quick write up and video as I have the time.

So the answer is yes, and its all based on the Filter: bricks/active_templates, and a good set of examples are available here:

The code snippet below allows you to do just that, conditionally applying horrible CSS to a page based on the header template

<?php
add_filter( 'bricks/active_templates', 'conditionally_enable_blue_text_for_header', 10, 3 );

function conditionally_enable_blue_text_for_header( $active_templates, $post_id, $content_type ) {
    // Define the header template IDs that should trigger the blue text
    $enabled_headers = array( 14, 456 ); // Replace with your actual header template IDs

    // Check if the active header template ID is in the list of enabled templates
    if ( isset( $active_templates['header'] ) && in_array( $active_templates['header'], $enabled_headers ) ) {
        // Add our custom style to the header
        add_action( 'wp_head', 'print_blue_text_styles', 100 );
    }

    return $active_templates;
}

function print_blue_text_styles() {
    echo '<style>body, body * { color: blue !important; }</style>';
}

I haven’t tried it, but I would assume this could be used on any of the template types that Bricks ha,s such as

• header – The header template used globally or on specific pages.
• footer – The footer template used globally or on specific pages.
• content – The main content template for a specific page or post.
• archive – The template used for archive pages (e.g., category or tag archives).
• search – The template used for search result pages.
• error – The template used for error pages (like 404).
• singular – The template used for singular posts or pages.
• page – The template specifically for static pages.
• post – The template specifically for individual posts.
• product – The template used for WooCommerce products (if WooCommerce is active).
• shop – The main shop page template (WooCommerce).
• category – The template used for category archives.
• tag – The template used for tag archives.
• taxonomy – The template used for custom taxonomies.
• author – The template used for author archive pages.
• date – The template used for date-based archives (e.g., yearly or monthly archives).
