Part 12: Making Your Divi 5 Website Fully Responsive

Image
Welcome back to the Divi 5 Mastery Course. In Parts 5–9, we built the coworking space website’s homepage, header, footer, global templates, and core inner pages. Then, in Parts 10–11, we strengthened those layouts with Flexbox and CSS Grid . Responsiveness was part of the build all along, but this final pass is where we refine everything. The goal is to make the site feel polished across phones, tablets, desktops, wider screens, and the breakpoints in between. In this part, we’ll audit the full site, fine-tune key layouts, use Divi 5’s responsive tools, and keep global consistency with your Design Variables and Presets . By the end, your site will be much closer to launch-ready. Let’s dive in. Divi 5 Responsive Tools You’ll Use Most Divi 5 includes a focused set of responsive tools for editing layouts across different screen sizes. Since we used many of these while building the site in earlier parts, this section is a practical recap before the final audit. Customizable Respon...

Part 11: Mastering CSS Grid In Divi 5

Image
Before Divi 5 , building layouts that broke out of Divi’s standard column structures often meant nesting rows, writing custom CSS, or settling for a simpler design. Divi 5 changes that by bringing CSS Grid into the Visual Builder. CSS Grid gives you precise control over two-dimensional layouts. Instead of only arranging items in a row or column, you can define rows and columns at the same time. Then, you can place child elements across that structure. In Divi 5, layout-capable containers such as Sections, Rows, Columns, Groups, and supported nested Module containers can use Grid. Once a container is set to Grid, you can control key grid settings such as track counts, gaps, alignment, item placement, and rule-based offsets from the settings panel. This is Part 11 of the Divi 5 Mastery Course. In this part, we’ll take one Row containing six Columns with content and styling already applied. Then, we’ll reshape it three different ways using row-level grid controls. First, we’ll use a ...

How To Build A Flexbox Header In Divi 5

Image
A header layout is a structural problem before it is a visual one. The logo , navigation , icons , and CTA need a clear relationship. You need to decide where each item sits, how much space separates it, and what changes on smaller screens. Flexbox solves that problem with layout rules. In Divi 5 , those controls live inside the Visual Builder , so you can define the structure visually instead of writing custom CSS. Below, we will build two practical Flexbox headers and show how Divi 5’s menu, canvas, and interaction tools work together. Flexbox In Divi 5 Flexbox is a CSS layout model for arranging items inside a container. Items can sit in a row, stack in a column, wrap, grow, shrink, and align. In Divi 5, Flexbox is part of the core layout system. Sections , Rows , Columns , and Module Groups can act as flex containers. When an element becomes a flex container, its direct children become flex items. That direct-child relationship matters throughout this tutorial. Core Flexbox...
