Part 8 Of Mastering Flexbox: Controlling Spacing With Gap (Not Margin)

Image
In Part 7 of our Mastering Flexbox series, we focused on building flexible button, menu, and link rows. We used Layout Direction , Justify Content , Align Items , Gap , and Module Groups to create compact, responsive horizontal groups that can adapt across breakpoints. In Part 8, we’re focusing on one of the biggest workflow shifts in Divi 5: controlling spacing with Gap instead of relying on margin for every spacing adjustment. Many Divi users are used to spacing elements with individual margins. That habit can still work in specific cases, but it often creates extra cleanup when items wrap, stack, or change direction across breakpoints. In Divi 5, Horizontal Gap and Vertical Gap give you a cleaner way to control spacing between direct child elements from the parent container. In this post, we’ll show you how Gap works, where to apply it, when margin still makes sense, and how to use Gap to create cleaner spacing systems for rows, columns, Module Groups, Nested Mod...

How To Create Tooltips With Divi 5

Image
Clean pages and informative pages often pull in opposite directions. Add every detail a visitor might need, and the layout starts to feel crowded. Remove too much, and visitors may not have enough context to understand what they are looking at or what to do next. Tooltips sit right in that gap. They let you keep the page clean while still making extra context available when someone needs it. Divi 5 now includes a dedicated Tooltip module that makes this workflow native. You can add a tooltip to an icon, button, text element, pricing feature, image, or any other element that needs a little more explanation. The tooltip stays tied to its parent element, and you control the trigger, movement, position, arrow, timing, content, and styling visually. In this tutorial, we’ll look at what tooltips are, where they work best, and how to create them with Divi 5’s Tooltip module. What Are Tooltips? Screen space is limited, and not every detail needs to sit directly on the page. A tooltip is...
