Key Takeaways

alright welcome back guys my name is Darrell and today we're going to talk about the new feature update LG a news release that allows you to customize your custom post types and your mood commerce products now also make sure to save till the end of this video because I have some big surprises for you Divi theme users out there now let's go ahead and give you a quick rundown of what they've changed and kind of introduce you all to some of these changes now the great thing about the Divi builder is that it'll actually detect what kind of plug-in that you're using and it's compatible with virtually tons of plugins out there so let's say for example you want a plug-in with a specific custom post type now in this instance I am using a plug-in called custom post types UI it has like one of the just type in custom post types on arrow I'll show you I'll show you what I'm using just so maybe you guys can use this on your website it's like the most popular one out there so I just typed in custom and then custom post type UI right here now once you install this plug-in or virtually any other plug-in that all is custom post types you can go over here to Divi and go to theme options now over here I believe it is the Builder section right here now it's gonna let you basically enable the Divi builder on certain custom post types or products or whatever so for instance right here I have juices right here because I'm making a juice website and now I have custom post types for my my cousin posts have two here for four juices and also you have it for products and you have it for the default projects that it's created with Divi as well now if you don't want it you can always go ahead and take it off but I don't see a reason why you'd want to do that because this is a privilege to do this so let's go ahead and show check out my new custom post I made so this right here my custom post types right here now I'm just going to just click on View right here and show you what I made so let's go ahead and scroll down right here this is a custom post type and this was all created with the Divi builder so right here you can see that we were using a lot of modules from Divi and etc so let's go ahead and click on let's go ahead and just get rid of this and just give you an example of what I'm talking about so right here we have the all of the Divi builder and it is basically creating the page for the custom post type and right here I can just click on delete everything and just say I don't want anything I'll update it and then I'm going to use the visual builder here and then we can just make one from scratch you know with a custom post type now most things you can't do this you cannot in fact with TV you cannot do this for a while so they introduced this feature today and I thought it was amazing so let's go ahead and add in something here so this is the featured image that I added and I'll just add in a premade layout you know that of course you would not want to use that on a feature page like this but you know I've just just for total purposes we're gonna go and use this layout just to show you that this is working and what you can do with custom post types now and after this I'm going to introduce you to the commerce products so right here you can see that our page now has its fully designed by the Divi builder and this is a custom post type page so let's go ahead and go click on save now let's go ahead and talk about the WooCommerce products and what they've done with that as well so going back over here to our dashboard I'm gonna go down to products now I've actually introduced or I'll just go to my site because I have them on de you know made it really nice and it looks clean so right here let's see where they write no they're not they're not over there I thought they were so I here I'll go to products and go to all products now here I'll go to will go to the red juice will go to the red one now here we have just a basic product now you can change the side bar as well so right here I've already changed the side bar so if you'd like to have a side bar your product page you can go ahead and have that of course you know I've I just basically wanted mine to have no side bar but that's not the point the point is we're going to show you how you can start adding content now to your products so right here now we can actually decide to add to certain things so for example right here you want to go ahead and display maybe other products maybe you want to display coupon code do you want to display anything that you possibly want in fact a lot of the on another theme they actually use a slider right here and they continually slide other products and coupon codes for other products so that's something to think about you know maybe you want to add in a big slider right here to sort of advertise your other products right here so over here I'll just do this right here and I'll type in what I've been a slider well put in a slider right here and in here I'll just delete this and you know right here we can add in something like maybe the slider is too big maybe a slider is too big but the whole point is I'm just showing you that you can actually decorate this now with the Divi Builder as well so here maybe we'll add in like a call to action here we'll add in something else like a button and then here you can add something else so depending on what your needs are for your website you can now start to decorate the description area of the WooCommerce product page and you know that goes a long way because a lot of the times when people want to decorate this stuff they can because by default WooCommerce doesn't allow this but with the Divi theme now you can actually decorate your description page with label commerce products now another really cool thing that I've looked at is that they're actually introducing tons of new features as we go I mean they're already talking about dynamic content they're talking about drag and drop files I I'm new to that I've I've never seen a theme with drag and drop files but I'm open to it they're also having a fine and replace which I think they introduced already more column structures that is a great one right here they're introducing more column structures and various other you know updates so right now the feature war really is going on with Devi they're introducing so many features with the Divi theme because they're getting really competitive and they really want your business in fact they introduced two layouts a week now and those layouts are beautiful so the layout side you actually gets our I think you've probably seen them by now you already get that with Divi once you have your license key and they released two a week now now that was also a feature update which I thought was just I don't know how they're producing so many layouts so quickly so here we'll just put in like demo and then use the Divi builder and then you know add the visual builder use a visual builder now right when you start you get this premade layout so these are layouts um talking about so right now they're adding two a week which are which is very fast and these are actually really high quality layouts as well so be sure to check that out now what I was talking about a surprise for some of you is that I know some of you might want to decorate your custom your your category post and also hero commerce a category archive page as well now by default when you go to Divi right here we have post right here and then you see your your posts right here you click on the category you get this default page right here now Divi may release a feature for this in fact I'm pretty sure they will because a lot of people been asking for this where you can edit your category page but in my next video in a few days I'm going to show you how you can fully decorate your your category page with the Divi builder so that's gonna be very interesting in fact I'm also going to introduce a plugin that will allow you to edit your commerce product archive page as well so for example right here we have our products right here and then we have our you know our green juice here I'll just say I'll click on this right here so this is what I'm talking on this page right here it's not yet activatable with the Devi builder they might
