How To Add A Fullwidth Header Module To Your Page
Before you can add a fullwidth header module to your page, you will first need to jump into the Divi Builder. Once the Divi Theme has been installed on your website, you will notice a Use Divi Builder button above the post editor every time you are building a new page. Clicking this button will enable the Divi Builder, giving you access to all of the Divi Builder』s modules. Next, click the Use Visual Builder button to launch the builder in Visual Mode. You can also click the Enable Visual Builder button when browsing your website on the front end if you are logged in to your WordPress Dashboard.

Once you have entered the Visual Builder, you can click the gray plus button to add a new module to your page. New fullwidth modules can only be added inside of fullwidth sections. If you are starting a new page, don』t forget to add a fullwidth section to your page first. We have some great tutorials about how to use Divi』s section elements.

Locate the fullwidth header module within the list of modules and click it to add it to your page. The module list is searchable, which means you can also type the word 「fullwidth header」 and then click enter to automatically find and add the fullwidth header module! Once the module has been added, you will be greeted with the module』s list of options. These options are separated into three main groups: Content, Design and Advanced.

How To Add A Search Module To Your Page
Before you can add a search module to your page, you will first need to jump into the Divi Builder. Once the Divi Theme has been installed on your website, you will notice a Use Divi Builder button above the post editor every time you are building a new page. Clicking this button will enable the Divi Builder, giving you access to all of the Divi Builder』s modules. Next, click the Use Visual Builder button to launch the builder in Visual Mode. You can also click the Use Visual Builder button when browsing your website on the front end if you are logged in to your WordPress Dashboard.

Once you have entered the Visual Builder, you can click the gray plus button to add a new module to your page. New modules can only be added inside of Rows. If you are starting a new page, don』t forget to add a row to your page first. We have some great tutorials about how to use Divi』s row and section elements.

Locate the search module within the list of modules and click it to add it to your page. The module list is searchable, which means you can also type the word 「search」 and then click enter to automatically find and add the search module! Once the module has been added, you will be greeted with the module』s list of options. These options are separated into three main groups: Content, Design and Advanced.
Use Case Example: Adding a Custom Search Module to a Fullwidth Blog Page
For this example, I』m going to show you how to add a Search Module to be a main call to action at the top of a blog page. This allows users to easily search the content of your blog without any clutter.
This page has a fullwidth header at the top with the search module directly below it. Under the search module is a Blog Module using the grid layout.

Using the Visual Builder, add a new standard section to the blog page with a fullwidth (1 column) row. Then insert the Search Module into the row.
Update the Search Module Settings as follows:
Content Options
Placeholder Text: Search our blog…
Hide Button: YES
Design Options
Input Field Background Color: #f8f8f8
Placeholder Color: #888888
Input Font Size: 16px
Input Text Color: #888888
Input Line Height: 1em
Custom Padding: 20px Top, 20px Bottom

Save Settings
Now go back to edit the width of the row containing your search module. Under the Design tab of the Row Settings, give the row a custom width of 300px. This will keep the search module compact and centered on the page.

That』s it!
Search Content Options
Within the content tab you will find all of the module』s content elements, such as text, images and icons. Anything that controls what appears in your module will always be found within this tab.

Placeholder Color
Before the search field is used, placeholder text exists inside of the field. If you have adjusted the field background color, you may also want to adjust the placeholder text color to ensure that it is readable.

If you would like to further restrict the max width of the search bar, you can do so by entering your desired max width value here. For example, a value of 50% would limit the width of the search bar to 50% of the width of the parent column.
Custom Margin
Margin is the space added outside of your module, between the module and the next element above, below or to the left and right of it.

The module list is searchable, which means you can also type the word 「email optin」 and then click enter to automatically find and add the email optin module! Once the module has been added, you will be greeted with the module』s list of options. These options are separated into three main groups: Content, Design and Advanced.
Configuring Email Accounts
Before you can use the email optin module, you will first need to connect it to an email provider. These providers can be added and managed within the module settings. Once you add a new email provider, it will appear in the module settings whenever you edit an email optin module on your website.

To add a new email provider, first select your email provider from the Select Provider list. Next, click the Add button to link the module to your email account.

Use Case Example: Adding An Email Optin to the Bottom of a Blog Post
A common place to add an email optin form is just below your post content.For this quick example, I』m going to show you just how easy it is insert and style a Email Optin Module below a blog post using the Visual Builder.

Using the Visual Builder, add Standard Section with a one-half one-half (2 column) row under the section containing the post content.
Since this example is going to be an e-book offer with the optin, add an Image Module to the left column and upload an image of the book. Set the image alignment to 「Center」 and set the image max width to 300px.

Then add the Email Optin Module to the right column.

Update the Email Optin Settings as follows:

An Overview Of Divi Sections

An Overview Of Divi Sections

An Overview Of Divi Sections
Sections are the builder』s largest building blocks, and can be used in various ways.

Sections are the biggest building block in the Divi builder. You can think of them as horizontal stacking blocks that can group your content into visually distinguishable areas. In Divi, everything you build starts with a section. This content wrapper has various settings that can be used to do some really awesome things.
How To Add A Section To Your Page
Before you can add a section module to your page, you will first need to jump into the Divi Builder. Once the Divi Theme has been installed on your website, you will notice a Use Divi Builder button above the post editor every time you are building a new page. Clicking this button will enable the Divi Builder, giving you access to all of the Divi Builder』s modules. Next, click the Use Visual Builder button to launch the builder in Visual Mode. You can also click the Use Visual Builder button when browsing your website on the front end if you are logged in to your WordPress Dashboard.

Once you have entered the Visual Builder, you can click the blue plus button to add a new section to your page. You will be greeted with a popup that allows you to add any of Divi』s three section types. These types include: Standard, Specialty and Fullwidth.

Once the section has been added, you will be greeted with the section』s list of options. These options are separated into three main groups: Content, Design and Advanced.
Section Content Options
Within the content tab you will find all of the section』s content elements. For sections, these content elements are limited to background elements such as background images and videos.

Background Image

Background Color
If defined, this image will be used as the background for this module. To remove a background image, simply delete the URL from the settings field.
Background Video MP4
All videos should be uploaded in both .MP4 .WEBM formats to ensure maximum compatibility in all browsers. Upload the .MP4 version here. Video backgrounds are disabled from mobile devices. Instead, your background image will be used. For this reason, you should define both a background image and a background video to ensure best results. Important Note: In order for the MP4 video format to work in all browsers, your server must have the correct MIME types designated. You can learn more about using .htaccess to define MIME types here. If you notice your videos are not playing in certain browsers, then this is likely the reason.
Background Video WEBM
All videos should be uploaded in both .MP4 .WEBM formats to ensure maximum compatibility in all browsers. Upload the .WEBM version here. Video backgrounds are disabled from mobile devices. Instead, your background image will be used. For this reason, you should define both a background image and a background video to ensure best results. Important Note: In order for the WEBM video format to work in all browsers, your server must have the correct MIME types designated. You can learn more about using .htaccess to define MIME types here. If you notice your videos are not playing in certain browsers, then this is likely the reason.
Background Video Width
In order for videos to be sized correctly, you must input the exact width (in pixels) of your video here.
Background Video Height
In order for videos to be sized correctly, you must input the exact height (in pixels) of your video here.
Admin Label

Here you can select whether or not your section has an inner shadow. This can look great when you have colored backgrounds or background images.
Use Parallax Effect
If enabled, your background image will stay fixed as your scroll, creating a fun parallax-like effect. You can also choose between two parallax methods: CSS and True Parallax.
Custom Padding
Here you can adjust the padding of the section to specific values, or leave blank to use the default padding.
Section Advanced Options
Within the advanced tab, you will find options that more experienced web designers might find useful, such as custom CSS and HTML attributes. Here you can apply custom CSS to your section.

This is useful if you want to use different sections on different devices, or if you want to simplify the mobile design by eliminating certain sections from the page.
Using Fullwidth Sections
Fullwidth sections give you access to a new set of Fullwidth Modules. These modules act a little differently because they take advantage of the full width of the browser. Fullwidth modules can only be placed within Fullwidth sections.

Once you add a new fullwidth section to your page, you can click the 「Add Modules」 button within the section to add a fullwidth module. Unlike normal section, there is no concept of rows or columns, since the fullwidth modules always takes advantage of 100% of the screen. Fullwidth modules are a great way to add a visual break to the page!

A great example of a fullwidth module is the fullwidth slider. This fullwidth slider works just like a normal slider, except that it expands to 100% width. Displaying a slider at such a scale can be quite stunning, just check our the divi demo for an example.

Using Specialty Sections
Specialty sections were created to allow for more advanced column structures. Unlike normal sections, when you use a specialty section, you can add complex column variations next to full-spanning vertical sidebars, without adding unwanted breaks to the page. These types of layouts are not possible using normal sections.

Once you add a specialty section to the page, you will notice that one area has an 「add module」 button, while the other has an 「insert row」 button. The 「insert module」 area represents your vertical sidebar. You can add as many modules here, in a single row, and they will span the vertical width of the section, adjacent to the column structure you build next to it. Clicking 「insert row」 will allow you to insert additional rows to the left/right of your sidebar. In a way, this can be thought of as adding rows within rows!

The result is the ability to create just about any column structure that you could dream of, and no matter what structure you choose, we have made sure that the combination will look great! Here is an example of a page layout created using specialty sections. As you can see, the effect is a dual-sidebar layout, with two vertical-spanning rows on the left/right of a complex column structure in the middle.
