Dynamic Data Tags

Use dynamic data tags to display recurring event information in Bricks Builder.

Accessing Dynamic Tags​

In any Bricks text element or dynamic field:

  1. Click the dynamic data icon (⚡ or )
  2. Look for the Recurring Events group
  3. Select your desired tag

{lre_reschedule_note}Reschedule note for current occurrence

Using Tags in Elements​

In Headings​

{post_title} - {lre_next_date}

Output: "Weekly Yoga Class - 15 January, 2026"

In Text Elements​

Create a styled date display:

📅 {lre_next_weekday}, {lre_next_month} {lre_next_day}
🕐 {lre_next_time}

In Rich Text​

Mix dynamic tags with static content:

Join us for this event on {lre_next_date} at {lre_next_time}. 
This event repeats {lre_recurrence_pattern}.

Conditional Display​

Use {lre_is_recurring} for conditional elements:

Show Only for Recurring Events​

  1. Add a Div containing your recurrence info
  2. Set condition: {lre_is_recurring} equals "1"

Show Only for One-Time Events​

  1. Add a Div with "One-Time Event" badge
  2. Set condition: {lre_is_recurring} equals "0"

Date Formatting​

The {lre_next_date} tag uses your configured format from plugin settings. To use a different format per-instance, use shortcodes instead:

[lre_next_date format="l, F j, Y"]

Override Fields​

To display fields with override support:

Location: {lre_field:event_location}

This displays:

  • The override value if set for the current occurrence
  • The default field value otherwise

Featured images with overrides work automatically with Bricks' native {featured_image} tag. No special syntax needed—if an override exists for the current occurrence, it displays automatically.

Tags in Query Loops​

Inside a Recurring Events query loop, all tags automatically use the correct occurrence context. The plugin handles this internally—you simply use the tags as normal.

Example Query Loop Card​

Container (Query Loop)
├── Image: {featured_image}
├── Heading: {post_title}
├── Div.date-box
│   ├── Span.day: {lre_next_day}
│   ├── Span.month: {lre_next_month}
│   └── Span.year: {lre_next_year}
├── Text: {lre_next_time}
├── Text: {lre_field:event_location}
└── Button: View Details → {post_url}

Tags Outside Query Loops​

On single event pages, tags require occurrence context via URL parameter:

yoursite.com/event/yoga-class/?lre_date=2026-01-15

When accessed with this parameter, tags display data for that specific occurrence.

Without the parameter, tags show the next upcoming occurrence.

Copying Tags​

All tags can be copied from the Settings page:

  1. Go to Recurring Events → Settings
  2. Click the Dynamic Tags tab
  3. Click any tag to copy it to clipboard
