Divi allows you to place sliders in full width sections, making your sliders span the full width of the browser. Divi sliders (Sliders) support parallax backgrounds, as well as video backgrounds!

How to add a full-width Diapo module from Divi

Before you can add a full-width slider module to your page, you must first jump into Divi Builder. Once the Divi theme installed on your Website, you will notice a button Use Divi Builderabove the post editor whenever you create a new page. Click on this button to activate Divi Builder and access all the Divi Builder modules. Then click on the button Use Visual Builder to start the generator in visual mode. You can also click the button Use Visual Builder when you browse your Website in the foreground if you are logged into your WordPress dashboard.

Once you are in 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 rows. If you are starting a new page, remember to add a row to your page first.

Locate the fullwidth slider module in the list of modules and click on it to add it to your page. The list of mods is searchable, which means you can also type the word "Slide" and then click enter to automatically find and add the full-width slider module! Once the module is added, you will be greeted by the module options list. These options are separated into three main groups: Contents , Design et Advanced .

Use Case Example: Adding a Fullwidth Slider Hero Section to Your Home Page

A full-width slider is a great way to showcase multiple CTAs above the threshold of your homepage. The combination of images and content can really give your section a professional feel that stands out.

For this example, I'll add a full-width slide to serve as the main section on a home page.

Using Visual Builder, add a Fullwidth section at the top of your web page. Then insert the Fullwidth Slider module into your new section. On the Content tab of the full width slide settings, click + Add a new item to create your first slide.

In the slide settings of your first slide, update the following options:

Content options

En-head : [enter the title of the slide]
Button text : [enter the button text]
Contents : [enter the text content of the slide]
Button URL : [enter the destination URL of the Slide button]
Background image : [enter the image that will serve as the backdrop for the slide]

Design options

Use background overlay : YES
Background overlay color : rgba (0,0,0,0.2) this overlay slightly darkens the background image to make the text more readable.

Save slide settings

Now duplicate the slide you just created and update the new slide with new content as needed. Repeat this for all the slides you want to add.

That's all. For this example, I'm only including two slides, but the result is an effective fullwidth hero slider with multiple calls to action that engages the user to click the button for more information. Since this is your main call to action for your Website, I suggest running split tests on your full-width slide using Divi Leads and seeing which one converts best.

Slide Full Content Options

Custom CSS can also be applied to the module and any of the module's internals. In the Custom CSS section, you will find a text field where you can add custom CSS style sheets directly to each element. CSS entries in these settings are already wrapped in style tags. So just enter the CSS rules separated by semicolons.

Content options for full-width slide module elements

Title

Set the text of your cursor title here.

Button text

If you want to display a button below your slide content, enter the button text here. Leave this field blank if you do not want to display a button.

Enter the body content of your cursor here. Note that the amount of text you enter here will determine the height of your slides.

Button URL

If you display a button, insert a valid web URL into this field to set the destination link.

Drag image

If you add a slide image, it will appear to the left of your slide text above your slide background. If you don't specify a slide image, you'll be left with a centered, text-only slide. Because the height of each slide is determined by the text, if your slide image is tall enough, it will fall below the bottom of the slide, creating an aligned image at the bottom.

Note that the height of a slide with a slide image can be determined by a taller slide in the slider. Make sure your slide image is large enough to fit if you want to have an image aligned at the bottom. For readability reasons, slide images only appear in column, column, or 1 column width sliders. Likewise, slide images will not display on browser widths smaller than 768 pixels. Slide image widths are defined below. We recommend that your slide images are at least as wide.

Video slide

If you add a slide video, it will appear to the left of your slide text above your slide background. If you don't specify a slide video, you'll be on the left with a centered, text-only slide. Because the height of each slide is determined by the text, if your slide image is tall enough, it will fall below the bottom of the slide, creating an aligned image at the bottom.

Video pause

Allow video to be paused by other players when they start playing

Background picture

If set, this image will be used as the background for this module. To remove a background image, just remove the URL from the settings field.

The height of a slide is determined by the amount of text you add. If you have multiple slides, the slider will take the height of the tallest slide.

The width of your cursor is determined by the width of the browser. Based on standard screen sizes, we recommend that your images be at least 1280px by 768px.

Position of the background image

By default, background images are displayed in the center of the slide. You can use this setting to change the placement at the top, bottom, left, right, or in any of the four corners of the slide.

Background image size

By default, the background images will be proportionally enlarged to ensure that they fill the entire slide. However, you can use this option to change the default behavior. "Coverage" is the default behavior, which scales the image to cover the entire slide area. “Fit” will also force the image to cover the entire area, however, it will force the height and width of the image to match the height and width of the cursor. This may result in a distorted image, but it will prevent the image from being cropped. "Actual Size" does not scale the image and displays it at its native size.

Background color

If you just want to use a solid color background for your slide, use the color picker to set a background color.

MP4 background video

All videos should be downloaded in both .MP4 .WEBM formats to ensure maximum compatibility in all browsers. Download the .MP4 version here. Important Note: Video backgrounds are disabled from mobile devices. Instead, your bkacground image will be used. For this reason, you should set both a background image and a background video to ensure better results.

WEBM background video

All videos should be downloaded in both .MP4 .WEBM formats to ensure maximum compatibility in all browsers. Download the .WEBM versions here. Important Note: Video backgrounds are disabled from mobile devices. Instead, your bkacground image will be used. For this reason, you should set both a background image and a background video to ensure better results.

Background video width

Background overlay color

Use the color picker to choose a color for the background.

Use text overlay

When this option is enabled, a background color is added behind the cursor text to make it more readable on background images.

Text overlay color

Use the color picker to choose a color for the text overlay.

Text Overlay Border Radius

The radius of the border affects the roundness of the corners of the text overlay area. By default, the corners have a slightly rounded edge of 3 pixels. You can reduce this value to 0 to create a rectangular box or increase the value to make the corners even more rounded.

Custom Color Arrows

When you hover over a slider module, arrows appear to allow the visitor to navigate through each slide. By default, these arrows inherit the color of the main text of the slide. However, you can define a custom color for these arrows using this setting.

Dot Nav Custom Color

In each cursor, point navigation items appear below the cursor content. These elements allow the user to navigate the cursor. You can define a custom color to use for these elements using the color picker in this setting.

Vertical alignment of the slide image

This setting determines the vertical alignment of your slide image. Your image can be centered vertically or aligned at the bottom of your slide.
