The Divi Call To Action Module

A clear Call to Action on your website is important for creating an enjoyable user experience and increasing conversions.

The Divi Call To Action Module can help you grow your email list, increase contact form submissions, promote a product, and more.

Add a new page or edit an existing page.By default, the Standard Gutenberg Editor loads whenever a new post or page is added to WordPress.

Click the purple button underneath the page title. Use The Divi Builder.

Once clicked, this will reload the page with the Divi Visual Builder.

As your page reloads, you'll notice three options:

Build From Scratch

Choose A Premade Layout

Build with AI

This option loads the Divi Builder with a blank page design. Choose this option if you'd like to start your page design from Scratch.

This option lets you choose from our large library of pre-designed Divi layouts. You can choose from premade layouts by Divi, which you've designed and saved to your Divi Library, and existing pages on your website that you can clone.

This option allows you to create an entire page layout using Divi AI. Using your text prompt and information about your website, you can create the perfect page outline, then build it and fill it with content and imagery, bringing it all to life in no time.

Click the green + icon to insert a Row.

Click the gray + icon inside the Row to open the Divi Module Library, which contains all the modules included with the Divi theme.

Find the Call To Action module and click on it to load the module. The module library is also searchable. Type the module name you want in the search bar at the top.

Once you’ve added the Divi Call To Action module, the module settings automatically pop up. This is where this module's content and design styles are configured. These settings are organized into three groups via the tabs at the top of the module: Content, Design, and Advanced.

Inside this tab, you’ll find the Content options available for the Divi Call To Action module.

This is where you type the content for this module.

You can assign a link to the CTA button and the entire module here.

Button Link URL - Paste the URL to which you would like the button to link here.

Button Link Target - Defining a link target determines whether the link, when clicked, opens in a new tab or the same window.

In The Same Window - if you want the link to open in the same window

In The New Tab - if you want that link to open in a new tab.

Module Link URL - If you would like the entire module to be clickable, paste the link URL you would like to apply to this module here. This makes the entire module clickable, and when clicked, it will direct visitors to the URL pasted here.

Module Link Target - Defining a link target determines whether the link, when clicked, opens in a new tab or in the same window.

You can add one condition or multiple conditions.

Disable on - Defines the visibility of the module. You can disable it (hide it from view) when the display window is a Phone, Tablet, or Desktop by clicking the corresponding checkbox.

Horizontal Overflow - Defines what shows when content overflows a block-level element's left and right edges. This may be:

Hidden - If the module's content overflows its height, the part of the content that overflows will be hidden.

Auto - The browser will decide whether a scroll bar will be shown.

Vertical Overflow - Defines what shows when content overflows a block-level element's top and bottom edges. This may be:

Visible - The content will show if the module's content overflows its height.

Scroll - If the module's content overflows its height, a vertical scroll bar will be used to scroll through its content.

Hidden - If the module's content overflows its height, the part of the content that overflows will be hidden.

Auto - The browser will decide whether a scroll bar will be shown.

This controls the hover animation's transition duration, delay, and speed curve.

Transition Duration - Defines the duration (in milliseconds) of the transition of the hover animation.

Transition Delay - Defines the transition delay of the hover animation (in milliseconds).

Transition Speed Curve - Defines the transition speed curve of the hover animation.

Position - This defines the position of the module:

Relative (default value) - The module is positioned according to the normal flow of the document, and then offset values are relative to itself based on the values of Vertical Offset and Horizontal Offset. The offset does not affect the position of any other elements; thus, the space given for the module in the page layout is the same as if the position were default (static).

Absolute - The module is removed from the normal document flow, and no space is created for the element in the page layout. The module is positioned relative to its closest positioned ancestor (if any) or the initial containing block. The Location options determine its final position

Fixed - The element is removed from the normal document flow, and no space is created for the element in the page layout. The module is positioned based on the location options in relation to the browser window. This can be used to create a sticky module.

Vertical Offset - Defines the module's vertical position.

Horizontal Offset - Defines the module's horizontal position.

Z-index - Defines the order of the module in the page layout. Modules with a higher z-index number overlap modules with a lower z-index.

This defines how the module behaves upon scrolling. You can make the module sticky (to top, bottom, or top and bottom) and choose if the module transforms upon scrolling.

You can also enable vertical motion on this module, which allows you to adjust the speed at which this element scrolls (making it faster or slower) without affecting the surrounding elements.

The Motion Trigger Effect allows you to choose when the scroll effect you just applied is triggered: when the top of the element is in view, the middle, or the bottom.

Once you are finished styling and configuring the Divi Call to Action module, click the green arrow at the bottom right of the module to save your design. If you close the module without saving, your work will be lost.

To save the page design, you can type CMD + S on a Mac or CTRL + S on a PC. You can also use the bottom Divi toolbar to save your page design by clicking the circle purple icon with the three dots … to expand the toolbar and then clicking the green Save button at the bottom right.

Now that all your changes are saved, click Exit Visual Builder on the admin toolbar at the top to exit the Visual Builder.
