A Deep Dive into Divi’s Structure: Sections, Rows, and Modules

Let me start by explaining what Divi is.

Think of Divi as more than just a WordPress theme — it’s a super intuitive no-code visual drag-and-drop website builder for WordPress that helps you create the perfect layout for your website. I particularly love that I can build unlimited websites for my clients with a single membership, and it’s affordable. I highly recommend you give it a try.

Even so, Divi has an easy system. You will need a learning curve. My tip is to understand the logic in Divi’s structure and not be afraid to Google whatever you find difficult to do.

Understanding the Basics: Sections, Rows, and Modules

Modules

Think of it as what you will insert/paint in a specific part of your canvas. The content elements that populate your rows.

Sections: Your canvas

It is the foundation of Divi’s structure. Each Section acts as a container, housing Rows and, consequently, Modules. Sections provide a structural hierarchy, allowing you to organize your content efficiently.

Rows: Division of canvas

Within each Section, you’ll find Rows. Rows serve as the horizontal divisions of your page, the canvas on which you arrange Modules.

Modules: your painting

Modules are the content elements that populate your Rows. Divi offers a diverse range of Modules – from text and images to sliders and contact forms.
