Bricks Query Loop: Exclude the Current Post
Leaves the post being viewed out of the Bricks query loops you choose, so "More articles" sections in single post templates never repeat the current article.
Opens WPIDE on
Code
// Bricks element IDs whose query loop should skip the current post.
$wpide_bricks_exclude_ids = array( 'abcdef' );
add_filter( 'bricks/posts/query_vars', function ( $query_vars, $settings, $element_id ) use ( $wpide_bricks_exclude_ids ) {
if ( ! in_array( $element_id, $wpide_bricks_exclude_ids, true ) || ! is_singular() ) {
return $query_vars;
}
$exclude = isset( $query_vars['post__not_in'] ) ? (array) $query_vars['post__not_in'] : array();
$exclude[] = get_queried_object_id();
$query_vars['post__not_in'] = array_values( array_filter( array_map( 'absint', $exclude ) ) );
return $query_vars;
}, 10, 3 );
Notes
Put the element IDs of your query loop elements (the six-letter ID shown in Bricks, without "brxe-") in the list.
