Divi 5 Technical Documentation

Community-maintained technical documentation for Divi 5 by Elegant Themes.

📖 Read the docs: 16wells.github.io/divi-docs

Why This Exists

Divi powers over 800,000 websites, but its official documentation has significant gaps — especially for Divi 5. This project provides accurate, thorough, screenshot-rich technical documentation covering modules, theme options, the builder, API hooks/filters, CSS references, and practical how-to recipes.

Scope

This project documents Divi 5 only. Divi 4 is being phased out and is not covered here.

Content Pipeline

Documentation is built from two sources:

  1. Scraped content from elegantthemes.com and other Divi resources, processed into structured Markdown drafts
  2. Community contributions that enrich, verify, and expand those drafts with tested code examples, screenshots, and troubleshooting tips

Scraping & Screenshots

# Install tools
pip install -r requirements.txt
playwright install chromium

# Scrape a documentation page into a Markdown draft
python scripts/scrape_docs.py --url "https://www.elegantthemes.com/documentation/divi/blurb/" --category modules --screenshots

# Capture screenshots from a live Divi site
python scripts/capture_screenshots.py --url "https://your-site.com/page" --output docs/assets/screenshots/modules/blurb/

# Batch capture from config
python scripts/capture_screenshots.py --batch scripts/screenshots.yml

Contributing

We welcome contributions from the entire Divi community. Every page has an edit button, or you can fork the repo and submit a pull request. See the Contributing Guide for details.
