What it does
Bricks Builder covers a lot on its own, but designers often end up hand-coding sliders, animated menus or page transitions. This plugin fills that gap with ready elements grouped into categories such as texts, buttons, menus, sliders and backgrounds. Because the elements use native Bricks controls, they behave like the rest of the builder, so you set them up in the same panels you already know. Newer additions include a gradient slider, a global search element, a world map, a globe and a stairs menu.
Beyond the elements, it extends the builder itself. Next UI reorganizes the interface with smart dropdowns and cleaner element grouping. The Animator tool lets you build timelines for any element, with control over duration and delays, and the page transitions run on the Barbajs library. Animator items can be imported, exported, duplicated and dragged. There are also pre-built sections like headers, banners, FAQs, CTAs and portfolios, plus query loop support for dynamic content and a dashboard screen for turning elements and features on or off.
Best for
- Designers and agencies building client sites in Bricks Builder
- Portfolio and creative sites that need animation and transitions

Questions about Next Bricks
Does this work with page builders other than Bricks?
The plugin is made specifically for Bricks Builder. Its elements and features are built with native Bricks controls, so it is meant for sites that use Bricks as their builder.
Can I animate elements without writing code?
Yes. The Animator tool lets you attach animations to any content or page element using timelines. You can add as many animations as you like to a timeline and adjust duration and delays in a timeline view.
Can I reuse animations on other sites?
Animator and page transition items support import and export, so you can move them between projects. You can also duplicate items and drag them to change their order.
Can I switch off elements I don't use?
Yes. Elements and features are managed from the WordPress dashboard, so you can keep only the parts you need active in the builder.
