Building An Image Hover Reveal Effect Using Divi 5’s Interactions

Image
Images almost always share space with supporting content, such as titles, short descriptions, and links. A static layout can handle that well, but even a small hover interaction can make the entire composition feel more responsive. Instead of showing everything at once, the layout reveals extra content only when someone engages with it. In this tutorial, we’ll use Divi 5 and its Interactions system to build exactly that: a layout where hovering over an image reveals additional content and shifts the surrounding text into a secondary state, all without custom code. What We’re Building The layout is a two-column book showcase. The left column displays a book cover image, and the right column contains the book’s core metadata: the author’s name and the book title. This is the default state visitors see first. It’s clean, simple, and easy to scan. When someone hovers over the book cover, the right column reveals more content through a module group: a testimonial, a short description...

4 Color Adjustment Designs For Divi 5 (Free Download!)

Image
Divi 5 makes it easy to build cohesive layouts with a smarter, more flexible color workflow. In this free pack, you’ll get 4 color adjustment design examples designed to show how powerful Divi 5’s design variables can be in real layouts. Instead of manually styling every element one by one, each example starts with a global color in the Variable Manager and then uses HSL-based adjustments throughout the design to automatically create lighter, darker, softer, and deeper variations. The result is a collection of polished sections that feel intentional and consistent while still being easy to customize. Change the base color variable, and the entire section updates with it.

How To Create A Simple Woo Category Page With Divi 5

Image
The new Woo Modules in Divi 5 give you much more control over how WooCommerce category pages look and function. Instead of relying on WooCommerce’s default archive layout, you can build category templates visually inside Divi’s Theme Builder. In this tutorial, you’ll learn two practical ways to create a simple Woo category page in Divi 5. The first uses the Woo Products module to generate a dynamic product grid quickly. The second uses individual Woo modules to build a more custom product card layout for curated products or featured sections. We’ll also show when it makes more sense to use Divi 5’s Loop Builder for a fully dynamic custom archive. What Are Woo Modules In Divi 5? WooCommerce category pages work out of the box, but the default structure is restrictive. Product grids, card layouts, spacing, typography, and button styles are mostly controlled by WooCommerce and your theme, so deeper customization often means editing templates or writing CSS. Divi 5 changes that by tur...

How To Create A Card Carousel In Divi 5

Image
Card carousels look deceptively simple: a row of cards, some navigation controls, and a bit of motion. But getting the structure, spacing, responsive behavior, and active-state styling right takes more work than it seems. With Divi 5 , you can build this layout natively without relying on a workaround or extra plugin. Divi 5’s Group Carousel module was built for layouts like this. Once you understand how Groups, carousel settings, and responsive controls work together, building a polished card carousel becomes much more straightforward. In this guide, we’ll go from setup to styling to responsive refinement, with a few best practices that will save time as your carousel grows. What A Card Carousel Is A grid shows everything at once, which can become unwieldy when you have a lot of information to display. A single-item slider goes the opposite direction, hiding too much behind one focal point. A card carousel sits between those two patterns. It shows enough content to provide contex...
