Divi 5 Sizing System & Color Palette Variable Generator

Image
I am excited to introduce the Variable Generator for Divi 5 . At the core of Divi 5’s design system are variables and presets . With advanced units , you can create fluid, responsive sizing systems using clamp(). With relative colors , you can create mathematically beautiful color systems using HSL. When you set everything up correctly, it makes managing your website so much easier. But, setting up all your color and number variables takes time, and learning clamp() can be intimidating. That’s where the new variable generator comes in, allowing you to spin up an entire sizing and color variable system automatically in a few clicks.

How To Build Custom Sidebar Navigation With Divi 5 Interactions

Finally, we’ll hide the sidebar by default and use Interactions to toggle it from both the hamburger icon and the close icon. Design Variables will keep shared values consistent, and Custom Attributes will help a...

How To Build Mega Menus With Divi 5’s Dropdown Module

Image
Divi 5 gives you a much more flexible way to build navigation than older Divi workflows. With the Link and Dropdown modules , plus features like Canvases , the Loop Builder , Interactions , and visibility settings, you can create custom dropdowns and mega menus directly inside Divi without relying on third-party plugins or custom code. In this post, we’ll walk through a step-by-step approach to building a custom mega menu in Divi 5, including a separate mobile version. Let’s get started. What Is The Dropdown Module? The Dropdown module in Divi 5 is a dedicated container for building dropdown menus and mega menus. When you place a Dropdown module inside a parent element, such as a Link module, Divi connects the dropdown’s behavior to that parent element. That means the Dropdown module can work as part of a navigation item instead of feeling like a separate floating layout.
