Hello everyone 
We just released our newest Custom Bric and it solves something that comes up in almost every client project: displaying business hours that are actually correct.
NowOpen shows a full weekly schedule with a live status badge, Open now / Closing soon / Closed, that recalculates every minute in the browser, based on the business’s timezone (not the visitor’s). So the answer is always right, whether your visitor is next door or on another continent.
The bit we’re most proud of are: holiday overrides:
Up to 10 date-based overrides for special hours or full closures. If you enter the date without a year (“25 December”), it repeats every year automatically. Set up Christmas, New Year and your national holidays once, and the Bric handles them forever. On the day itself, the schedule row even shows your label e.g. “Christmas Eve: 9:00 am – 1:00 pm”.
Other things it handles that are usually painful:
- Split hours for lunch breaks (09:00–12:00 + 14:00–18:00)
- Overnight hours for bars/restaurants (22:00–02:00, with a “+1” marker)
- Open 24 hours / Closed all day per weekday
- 12h/24h display, List or Card layout, today highlight
- Timezones as IANA names (
Europe/Londonand DST handled automatically) or plain offsets (UTC+4) - Fully translatable, every visible word is a sidebar setting, so German/French/Japanese sites work out of the box
The package includes a second Bric: a compact Status Badge you can drop in the navbar or footer. It needs zero configuration as it reads the schedule from the main Bric and stays in sync site-wide. Three styles (pill / text / dot+label) with independent colours, so it works on dark navbars too.
Tech notes for the curious: one dependency-free vanilla JS file (~4 KB), loaded once per page regardless of how many badges you use. No jQuery, no external requests. All elements have stable CSS class names documented in the manual if you want to go further with custom classes.
In total there are 160+ sidebar settings 
across the two Brics, we tried to make sure you never hit a “I wish I could change that” wall.
