Conditionally Hide a Section on a Specific Taxonomy’s Term Archives in Bricks

A user asked:

I have a CTA in the footer of my site, which I have custom fields on various templates, etc to populate.

I don’t want it on a custom taxonomy archive (service-types), but I can’t for the life of me see how to hide that section on those alone.

CPT: service
Custom Taxonomy: service-type

Requirement: output a section everywhere except on taxonomy term archives of service-type.

This can be done by whitelisting the is_tax() WordPress function and using it with a dynamic data condition in Bricks.

Step 1

Whitelist the is_tax function.

Ex.:

<?php 

add_filter( 'bricks/code/echo_function_names', function() {
  return [
    'is_tax'
  ];
} );

You should also add other functions (native or custom) being used in your Bricks instance besides is_tax. This can be checked at Bricks → Settings → Custom code by clicking the Code review button.

More info on whitelisting can be found here.

Step 2

Edit your template having the section that you wish to not be displayed on the taxonomy term archive pages.

Add a dynamic condition like this:

{echo:is_tax(service-type)}

This will make the section be rendered everywhere except on the service-type term archives.
