## Descripción

Mortar makes building in Bricks faster and cleaner. It adds a set of focused workflow
tools to the Bricks editor, each explained with a live example, so you always know
what a tool does before you turn it on.

Generate BEM classes in bulk, expand CSS shortcuts into full code, convert smart
values, change semantic tags, and move faster through the structure panel. Everything
lives in one clean panel, and every module is optional, so you switch on only what
you need.

**Included modules**

 * **BEM Generator:** create and rename CSS classes with BEM naming in bulk, right
   from the structure panel.
 * **CSS Recipes:** type a shortcut like `@clickable-parent;` and it expands into
   full CSS.
 * **Smart Values:** press Enter to turn `--space-m` into `var(--space-m)`, and `
   var(--x) * 2` into `calc(var(--x) * 2)`.
 * **HTML Tags:** change an element’s semantic tag without leaving the structure
   panel.
 * **Style Indicators:** a coloured bar per element so you see at a glance what 
   is styled via class or via ID.
 * **Sidebar Shortcuts:** a configurable quick-insert rail for your most-used elements.
 * **Auto-Select Class:** selects the class automatically after you create or rename
   it.
 * **Export ID Styles to Class:** move ID-level styles onto the first CSS class 
   in one click.
 * **Expand Children:** expand or collapse an element’s entire subtree at once.
 * **Editor Theme:** colour the Bricks builder to match your brand. Pick your accent
   and surface colours, with presets, your own saved palettes and one-click apply.

Every module follows the same clean settings panel, with a description and a live
example.

**Independence and trademark**

Mortar is an independent project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored

every module with a description and an example.

Through the WordPress Plugins screen, like any other plugin from the directory.

 [Christian G.](https://profiles.wordpress.org/christian44/) 24 de junio de 2026

Very useful plugin if you work with Bricks Builder on a daily basis 😉It helps speed
up the workflow and keeps the editor more organized. The bulk BEM system and CSS
Recipes save a lot of time in real projects. It is also great that everything is
modular so you can enable only what you need. It clearly focuses on improving productivity
inside the builder 👏🏼👏🏼

## Registro de cambios

#### 1.2.0

 * New module: Editor Theme. Colour the Bricks builder to match your brand. Pick
   your accent and surface colours and the whole editor follows, with presets, your
   own saved palettes, and one-click apply.
 * Fixed a bug where the settings panel could get stuck when dragged quickly across
   the canvas.

#### 1.1.2

 * Style indicators: more accurate (they no longer light up for elements without
   real CSS styling) and they now refresh instantly when you add or remove a class.
 * Auto-select class: faster and lighter when moving between elements.

#### 1.1.1

 * Performance: lighter, more stable editor during long sessions, with less background
   work and no slow memory build-up.

#### 1.1.0

 * Sidebar Shortcuts: manage the rail right in the editor. The new “+” button opens
   a popup to add, remove and reorder shortcuts, and changes save automatically.
 * HTML Tags: fixed a bug and improved element-tag detection, so the correct tag
   now shows reliably on more elements, including Button and Image.
 * Accessibility: keyboard support to add, remove and reorder shortcuts in the popup.

#### 1.0.0

 * First public release on WordPress.org.
 * Settings panel (master–detail) with a description and live example per module.
 * Modules: BEM Generator, Style Indicators, Sidebar Shortcuts, HTML Tags, Auto-
   Select Class, Export ID Styles to Class, CSS Recipes, Expand Children and Smart
   Values.
