Divi tutorial: How to use the Post Title module

Divi's Job Title module displays the title of your current post and, if applicable, the post image and metadata in an elegant way. This allows you to create more unique posts while creating your posts using Divi Builder.

How to add a Post Title module to your page

Before you can add a title 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 Builder above 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 have entered 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 article title module in the list of modules and click on it to add it to your page. The list of modules is searchable, which means you can also type the word “post title” and then click enter to automatically find and add the job title 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 .

Example use case: formatting a post title module for a blog post

For this example, I'm going to show you how easy it is to customize a publication title for a blog post.

The first thing you need to do is go to the "Edit Article" page of the WordPress dashboard. In the Divi Post Settings area at the top right, set the layout to Full width and hide the article title.

Using Visual Builder, add Regular Section with a full width row (1 column). Then add the Post Title module to the row.

Update the message title settings as follows:

Content options

View Post Categories: NO Show Comments Number: NO View Featured Image: YES Featured Image Location: Title / Meta Background Image
