Explore New Ways to Create Custom Divi Modules
Leveraging the new features of Divi 5, users can now create custom Divi modules without coding knowledge. By using the innovative Module Groups in the Visual Builder, multiple elements can be combined into one layout. This guide provides step-by-step instructions for crafting custom modules such as Blurbs, Pricing Tables, and Testimonials, allowing for dynamic design and efficient site-building.
Divi 5 introduces "Module Groups," which act as a container for multiple modules and rows, enabling easy relocation within a page. These groups are especially beneficial with upcoming features like Flexbox and the Loop Builder, enhancing the ability to design unique blog layouts, menus, and galleries. While Divi 5 can be utilized for new sites, existing sites should wait for confirmed compatibility.
Creating modules involves combining regular modules and nested rows, enhancing design flexibility. For instance, a Blurb Module can be recreated by grouping an image/icon, heading, and text module. Pricing Tables and Testimonial Modules can similarly be crafted using various text and image elements within Module Groups.
To save custom modules, store them as Global Elements in the Divi Library, ensuring consistent updates across a site. Modules can also be saved to the Divi Cloud for use in different projects, supporting efficient and uniform site development.
For those interested in building websites efficiently, Divi Quick Sites and AI Site Builders can drastically simplify the process. Divi Quick Site builds offer seamless website creation with artificial intelligence.
