Today we discovered a new feature on Divi namely: Multiselect (multiple selection) and Bulk Editing (Editing in bulk) for divi, an amazing new feature that lets you build websites with new speed and efficiency. Now you can select multiple items at the same time and perform global actions on the whole group of items.

You can drag, drop, copy, paste, delete and even edit the design and contents everything at the same time. Instead of making tedious edits to a group of elements one by one, and over and over again, simply select them all and edit everything at once. It is really impressive.

Edit multiple items at once to save time

Editing multiple elements at once will save you a significant amount of time by eliminating the repetitive, tedious and costly tasks associated with designing a Website coherent.

When you build in Divi, you can now hold down the Cmd or Ctrl keys and click on items to select them. You can select multiple items as many times as you want and you can even select a combination of modules, rows and sections. You can also hold down Shift and click to select a series of modules in a column, a series of rows in a section, or a series of sections in a page. Once selected, you can bulk edit the entire collection of items at once.

When you bulk edit the design of multiple multi-selected elements, they all update live, saving you tons and tons of design time. When you open the modal settings for a collection of items, Divi automatically displays a list of shared settings. When you change the design, all of the selected items are updated accordingly. You can even bulk edit a collection of different items. For example, you can add a shadow box to a Blurb pod, Image pod, and section simultaneously.

Drag, drop, copy, paste and delete quickly

Multiple selection is a great way to quickly copy, paste, and delete multiple items at once. It's also a great way to move a series of items to a new location, rather than dragging and dropping them one by one. You can even drag and drop modules, lines, and sections at the same time, and Divi will automatically combine the elements and drop them into one location.

Better understand your page structure

Holding down the Cmd or Ctrl keys is also a great way to better understand your page structure and quickly select small, individual modules that might be hard to find using Divi's minimal build interface. When you hold down the Cmd or Ctrl key, you get a clear overview of all modules, lines and sections, giving you a perfect picture of your entire page and how all the pieces fit together.

Multiple selection and bulk editing are available on Divi, so download Divi and test this new feature.
