Custom Post Types In Divi 5 | ACF Tutorial For Beginners
In this advanced Divi 5 tutorial, you’ll learn how to create custom post types in WordPress using the free version of Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) and display everything beautifully with the Divi 5 Theme Builder.
We start by creating a new custom post type (for example: Tutorials), so you’re no longer limited to regular blog posts and pages. Then we add powerful custom fields like a YouTube video embed, watch time, affiliate links, and more. After that, we design a fully custom single post template in Divi 5 that dynamically pulls in all this data automatically.
This workflow is perfect if you want to build:
Tutorial libraries
Video portals
Course overviews
Resource hubs
Custom content platforms
You’ll also learn how to:
Create custom post types in ACF
Add and conditionally show custom fields
Embed YouTube videos dynamically
Display custom fields in Divi 5 templates
Create reusable layouts with the Divi Library
Optimize your overview pages
Improve UX and SEO by keeping visitors longer on your site
This tutorial is part of my complete Divi 5 website-building series. If you’re new to Divi 5, make sure to watch the full step-by-step course first so you can follow along smoothly.
💡 Pro tip: Embedding videos and structuring your content with custom post types can massively increase time-on-site, which is great for SEO and conversions.
