Bricks Theme: Template Conditions Not Applied Correctly in Translated Templates

Overview of the issue

In Bricks Theme, when a template condition is set to display only for specific terms (e.g., a particular category), the condition does not apply correctly in the translated templates.

Workaround

Please, make sure of having a full site backup of your site before proceeding.

Part I

• Go to WPML > Settings > Custom fields.
• Look for line the _bricks_template_settings field.
• Set it as Copy

Part II

• Open your theme’s functions.php file.
• Add the following code:

  /**
   * WPML Workaround for compsupp-7667
   */
  add_filter('get_post_metadata', 'wpml_compsupp7667_bricks_translate_template_conditions', 10, 4);
  function wpml_compsupp7667_bricks_translate_template_conditions($value, $post_id, $key, $single) {
      if ($key !== '_bricks_template_settings') {
          return $value;
      }
  
      // Remove filter temporarily to avoid infinite loop
      remove_filter('get_post_metadata', 'wpml_compsupp7667_bricks_translate_template_conditions', 10);
      
      // Get all meta values
      $raw_values = get_post_meta($post_id, $key, false);
      
      // Add filter back
      add_filter('get_post_metadata', 'wpml_compsupp7667_bricks_translate_template_conditions', 10, 4);
  
      // If we have no values, return the original
      if (empty($raw_values)) {
          return $value;
      }
  
      // Process the array structure
      foreach ($raw_values as &$settings) {
          if (is_array($settings) && isset($settings['templateConditions'])) {
              foreach ($settings['templateConditions'] as &$condition) {
                  if (!empty($condition['archiveTerms']) && is_array($condition['archiveTerms'])) {
                      foreach ($condition['archiveTerms'] as &$termString) {
                          if (strpos($termString, '::') !== false) {
                              list($taxonomy, $termId) = explode('::', $termString);
                              $translatedId = apply_filters('wpml_object_id', intval($termId), $taxonomy, true);
                              if ($translatedId) {
                                  $termString = $taxonomy . '::' . $translatedId;
                              }
                          }
                      }
                  }
              }
          }
      }
  
      return $raw_values;
  }
