Elementor, Bricks, Breakdance, Oxygen 6+, Oxygen Classic, Brizy, Beaver Builder, ZionBuilder, Thrive Architect, Pagelayer and Visual Composer. Visual Composer retains the free edition’s page/post scope. Astra and OceanWP post types retain their special menu navigation when available.
Recognition reads existing metadata for active supported builders enabled on the post type. “No recognized builder” does not automatically mean Gutenberg. The default views recognize active builders; the optional trace view checks inactive signatures. Global template assignments are not analyzed. Existence-based integrations retain their previous semantics even for empty values.
Counts describe the complete readable group outside trash, including unpublished content. Search and other list filters can reduce visible results. Builder groups can overlap.
Enable or disable the Builder column, builder submenus and no-builder filter site-wide. Users can also hide the column individually through Screen Options. Administrators change settings; editors use list features according to normal editing permissions.
The local changelog opens in a keyboard-accessible dialog. Close it with Escape, the Close button or a click outside the dialog; focus returns to the link.
Stable GitHub releases appear in the regular WordPress update system through deckerweb Updater 2.1.0. No separate updater plugin is needed; automatic updates stay under your control.
The embedded deckerweb Library 0.9.0 adds Plugins → Add New → deckerweb, with a local approved catalog, series filters and plugin details. The standard WordPress tab remains the default. Installation, activation and updates require an explicit permitted action. Online catalog refresh is optional and off by default.
The Library follows the active compatible copy when multiple deckerweb plugins are installed. Its preferences are separate from the three Builder List Pages display settings.
The Multiple builders recognized view collects content with at least two distinct active builder signatures. Duplicate copies of the same metadata field count once.
Open Builder tools and personal views above the native content list to select a view, save a named favorite, switch to a compact selector, inspect inactive builder traces, copy diagnostics or export a CSV. The tools remain collapsed by default; existing builder views remain the default. Bricks badges provide a separate editor link only when native Bricks permissions allow it.
Inactive traces: the optional read-only view checks known metadata signatures even when the corresponding builder is inactive. It does not activate builders, change content or prove which builder renders the frontend. Empty fields can count for existence-based signatures. Active builders disabled for a post type are not classified as inactive.
Personal favorites: save post type, builder, status and search for your own account on this site. Save the same name to update a favorite; up to 20 names are supported. Opening a favorite rechecks your access. Delete favorites individually; deactivation and uninstall retain them.
Diagnostics: select and copy the local text containing plugin, WordPress and PHP versions, supported active builder names and accessible post types. It omits website URLs, usernames, credentials and page contents. Nothing is automatically sent.
CSV: download title, status, recognized builders and edit link for the explicitly displayed builder/status/search selection, up to 5,000 readable and editable items. Other list filters are not included; the tool states this before download. CSV formulas are neutralized. Edit links contain the site URL, so the CSV is intended for a trusted handover, unlike the minimal support diagnostics.
An empty builder result explains the current builder, search and status. Reset search or Remove builder filter clears that one restriction while preserving the post type and other list filters.
Open Recognition details in a row to see the matched metadata field names and whether an empty value exists. No metadata values or builder content are displayed.
No. Activate the plugin and open a content list that an active supported builder can edit. Views, the Builder column and builder submenus are enabled by default.
Elementor, Bricks, Breakdance, Oxygen 6+, Oxygen Classic, Brizy, Beaver Builder, ZionBuilder, Thrive Architect, Pagelayer and Visual Composer. Visual Composer currently uses the free edition’s page/post scope.
No configured condition matched among active supported builders enabled for this post type. It does not prove the page uses Gutenberg.
Yes, individually in Screen Options on the list, or site-wide in Settings → Builder List Pages.
The three display choices are stored separately for each site. Network activation loads the plugin on all sites, including newly created sites. The Library uses its own site and network controls; site administrators cannot manage its network preferences.
No. The updater offers stable GitHub releases only. Install test packages manually when needed. It does not turn on automatic updates.
Deactivation keeps all data. Uninstallation removes this plugin’s temporary update cache while keeping its three site settings, personal views/display preferences and all builder content. Shared Library caches and tasks are removed only when no other installed host needs them, including inactive hosts. Library preferences remain unless its separate cleanup option is enabled. Plugins installed through the Library are never removed.
- New: Adds a multiple-builder filter, optional inactive-trace audit, personal saved views, compact user display choice, minimal copyable diagnostics and an explicit CSV handover export.
- Improved: Explains empty results with independent search/builder recovery and clearer badge actions; adds permission-checked native Bricks editor links.
- Improved: Preserves personal favorites and preferences across deactivation and uninstall; limits exports to permitted items and neutralizes spreadsheet formulas.
- Improved: Updates bilingual banners and icons using the approved blue-petrol vector artwork and local Inter font outlines with the font license.
- Improved: Integrates deckerweb Library 0.9.0 and Updater 2.1.0 with complete German informal/formal host translations and synchronized local documentation.
- Improved: Displays the plugin icon once in the settings header; keeps version, documentation and author information in the footer.
- Fixed: Places native admin notices below the complete settings header and clarifies the column and post-type admin menu labels.
- Misc: Preserves existing site settings, builder content and minimum requirements; includes the local Inter font license.
- New: Optional Builder column with clickable builder names and overlapping matches.
- New: Independent views and submenus for multiple active builders.

- Fixed: Uses post-type editing permissions for builder submenus instead of theme permissions.
- Fixed: Prevents WP Admin Cleaner from incorrectly blocking builder lists when a hidden Bricks menu slug matches the end of their URL. Existing list links are normalized automatically while preserving search and filters.
- Misc: Integrates the shared deckerweb GitHub Updater V2 and embedded Plugin Library 0.2.0.
- Misc: Raises minimum PHP to 8.0 for the embedded Library; WordPress 6.7 remains the minimum.
