Builderius 1.0.5 Pro + Free 1.1.5 Beta — Feature Release Notes

Custom Components just got even more powerful. This feature release introduces Component Properties, giving you full control over reusable components with editable fields, conditional logic, and dynamic data binding.

What’s New in This Release

This release focuses on making components truly flexible. You can now define properties on any component — text fields, images, True-False, dropdowns (select) — and those properties become editable whenever you use the component. Combined with improvements to dynamic data handling, shortcode support, and dozens of bug fixes, this update makes Builderius more capable and reliable.

Components were already useful for reusing design elements. Now they’re super powerful.

Define Properties, Get Form Fields

Create a card component and define properties like title, description, image, and show_button. When you drop that component into a template, those properties appear as editable fields. Change the title, swap the image, toggle the button visibility—all without opening the component itself.

Property Types Available:

• Text — Single line or textarea for headings, descriptions, labels
• Image — Media library integration for visual content
• URL — WordPress content integration for additional way to create links
• Boolean — True/false toggles for conditional display
• Select — Dropdown options for variants and choices

Conditional Display

Use boolean properties to control element visibility inside components. Create a testimonial component where the author photo only shows when show_photo is true. Build pricing cards where the “Most Popular” badge appears conditionally.

Properties are now integrated in the Builderius conditions builder. Use “Dynamic Data” method inside the conditions builder and pick a property to test against.

Dynamic HTML Tags

Components can now change their wrapper element based on a property. A card component can render as <article>, <div>, or <li> depending on context—same design, semantic HTML that fits where it’s used.

Nested Components

Build complex layouts by nesting components within components. A “Card Row” component can contain multiple “Card” components, each with their own editable properties. Parent properties can bind to child properties, creating flexible, composable systems.

Components in Loops

Drop a component inside a collection loop and bind its properties to dynamic data. Loop fields now appear in the dynamic data dropdown when a component is selected inside a loop. Build once, populate dynamically from any data source.

Inline Property Tag

When added to text inputs or textarea, component properties are represented like or, if in loop {{prop.component.prop_name}}.

This allows users to type before or after the property, allowing users to combine property values inside the same element with other text, inside html element and more.

Documentation notice

With this release we have also released a new documentation website. Learn about Components in Components/Introduction, Component/Properties and Component/Conditions are coming soon. Discuss Components in Builderius Community with 2000+ developers.
