Random Users Query Loop in Bricks

Looking to show users in random order when using a Users type of query in Bricks?

Add the following in child theme‘s functions.php or a code snippets plugin:

add_action( 'pre_user_query', function( $query ) {
	if ( $query->query_vars['orderby'] === 'rand') {
		$query->query_orderby = 'ORDER BY RAND()';
	}
} );

add_filter( 'bricks/users/query_vars', function( $query_vars, $settings, $element_id ) {
	if ( $element_id === 'yslvlr' ) {
		$query_vars['orderby'] = 'rand';
	}
	
	return $query_vars;
}, 10, 3 );

Replace yslvlr with the Bricks ID of your query loop element.

  • Looking to show users in random order when using a Users type of query in.

  • Now I can go to any post / page / custom post type in my website, change the dropdown for this ACF field to page-builder and, in doing so, I can override the Single - Default template and design full-width using Bricks.
