Footers often get built after the rest of the page is done, and that usually shows. Columns stop lining up, spacing feels inconsistent, and the layout starts to fall apart as soon as you check it on smaller screens. Divi 5 gives you a better way to build footer layouts with its Flexbox controls. Instead of fixing alignment with one-off margins and padding, you can decide how footer sections stretch, stack, align, and reflow directly inside the builder. In this tutorial, we’ll build a responsive footer with a CTA block, newsletter signup, navigation links, social links, and a copyright bar.

A footer might look simple, but it usually contains several different content types: calls to action, menus, signup forms, social icons, legal text, and sometimes contact details.

Design Variables , Option Group Presets , Element Presets , Composable Settings , and Nested Option Presets can work together as connected layers. Instead of saving disconnected styles, you can build a system where variables feed presets, smaller presets sit inside larger presets, and Element Presets bring those decisions together into reusable components. Stacking then lets you layer contextual variations without creating a separate preset for every possible use case. In this guide, we’ll walk through how the system works, where Nested Option Presets fit, why Composable Setti...
