How to Add a Video Slider Module to Your Page

Before you can add a video slider module to your page, you will first need to jump into the Divi Builder. Once the Divi Theme has been installed on your website, you will notice a Use Divi Builder button above the post editor every time you are building a new page. Clicking this button will enable the Divi Builder, giving you access to all of the Divi Builder’s modules. Next, click the Use Visual Builder button to launch the builder in Visual Mode. You can also click the Enable Visual Builder button when browsing your website on the front end if you are logged in to your WordPress Dashboard.

Once you have entered 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 of Rows. If you are starting a new page, don’t forget to add a row to your page first. We have some great tutorials about how to use Divi’s row and section elements.

Use Case Example: Adding a Video to Your Landing Page

Adding a video to your landing page is a great way to promote your products and increase conversions. In this example, I’m going to show you how you can use the video module to add a video to your landing page. I’ve put a red circle where the video needs to go.

video module

Using the Visual Builder, I add a new section with a fullwidth (1 column) row. In the row settings, under the Design tab, I select the option to “Use Custom Width”. For the Custom Width option that shows up, I enter a custom width of 767px. This makes sure the video module I’m going to add in this row doesn’t exceed this width and become too large on larger screen sizes.

video module

Next, I add the Video Module to the row. Under the Content tab of the Video Module Setting, I enter the video URL of the video I want to embed on my landing page. I’m using the URL of a youtube video for this example.

video module

Then I add an Image Overlay URL for my video by clicking the “Generate From Video” button. This automatically pulls an image from the video to serve as an overlay with a new custom video icon.

video module

Under the Design tab, I change the color of the play icon to match my landing page.

video module

Now I have a video for my landing page that looks clean and matches my design.

Video URL

The Divi Video module lets you add video using two different methods. You can either upload your own video file from your computer by clicking the “Upload Video” button and selecting the desired file, or you can input any Video URL from a third party video source such as Youtube or Vimeo. Simply copy and paste the URL from your browser and paste it into the Video URL field and Divi will take care of the rest!.

Image Overlay URL

If you would like to define a custom video thumbnail image, which will be placed over the standard video interface with a custom play button to create a cleaner and more stylized appearance, then you can choose to do so using the Image Overlay field. This field allows you to either upload your own custom image, or let Divi automatically generate one from your video URL. Most of the video providers support this option, such as Youtube and Vimeo. Simply click the “Generate From Video” button and let Divi take care of the rest!

Admin Label

By default, your video module will appear with a label that reads ‘Video’ in the builder. The Admin Label allows you to change this label for easy identification.

Use Case Example: Add a Slider to your page to Promote Product Features

A slider is a great way to showcase your product or service features. The combination of images and content can really give your products a professional feel that stands out.

For this example I’m going to add a slider to showcase a few product features. Each slide will have a background image, a slide image, and a content section.

slider module

Using the Visual Builder, add a new section with a fullwidth (1 column) row. Then insert a slider module to your new row. In the Content tab of the Slider Settings, click + Add New Item to create your first slide.

slider module

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

Content Options

Heading: [enter the slide heading]
Button Text: [enter the button text]
Content: [enter the main slide text content]
Button URL: [enter the destination URL for the Slide button]
Slide Image: [upload a png image of your product feature]
Background Image: [enter the image that will serve as a background for the slide]

Note: By default, the slide image will display on the left and the slider text content and button will be displayed on the right.

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.

slider module

Save Slide Settings

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

slider module

That’s it. For this example I’m only including two slides, but the result is a good looking slide that matches the design of the site, effectively showcases your product, and engages the user to click the button for more information on the product.

Slider Content Options

Within the content tab you will find all of the module’s content elements, such as text, images and icons. Anything that controls what appears in your module will always be found within this tab.

Controls

Choose whether or not you would like to display the circle buttons/slide indicators at the bottom of the slider.

Slider Design Options

Within the design tab you will find all of the module’s styling options, such as fonts, colors, sizing and spacing. This is the tab you will use to change how your module looks. Every Divi module has a long list of design settings that you can use to change just about anything.

Automatic Animation Speed (in ms)

Here you can designate how fast the slider fades between each slide, if ‘Automatic Animation’ option is enabled above. The higher the number the longer the pause between each rotation.

Continue Automatic Slide on Hover

Turning this on will allow automatic sliding to continue on mouse hover.

Individual Slider Content Options

slider module

Heading

Define the title text for your slider here.

Button Text

If you would like to display a button below your slider content enter the button text here. Leave this blank if you do not wish to display a button.

Content

Enter the body content of your slider 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 in this field to define the destination link.

Slide Image

If you add a slide image, it will appear to the left of your slide text on top of your slide background. If you do not specify a slide image you will 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 drop below the bottom of the slide, creating bottom aligned image. See an example of this on the third slide on this page.

Note the height of a slide with a slide image could be determined by a taller slide in the slider so make sure your slide image is tall enough to accommodate if you wish to have a bottom aligned image. For legibility reasons, slide images will only appear in sliders that are in ⅔ column, ¾ column, or 1 column widths. Also, slide images will not display on browser widths of less than 768 pixels. The widths of slide images are defined below. We recommend that your slide images are at least this wide.

Slide Video

If you add a slide video, it will appear to the left of your slide text on top of your slide background. If you do not specify a slide video you will 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 drop below the bottom of the slide, creating bottom aligned image. See an example of this on the third slide on this page.

Pause Video

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

Background Image

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

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

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

Background Image Position

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

Background Image Size

By default, background images will be scaled up proportionally to ensure that they fill the entire slide. However, you can use this option to change the default behavior. “Cover” is the default behavior, which will scale the image to cover the entire slide area. “Fit” will also force the image to cover the entire area, however, it will force the image’s height and width to match the height and width of the slider. This may result in a skewed image, but it will prevent image cropping. “Actual Size” will not scale the image at all and will display it at its native size.

Background Color

If you would simply like to use a solid color background for your slide, use the color picker to define a background color.

Background Video MP4

All videos should be uploaded in both .MP4 .WEBM formats to ensure maximum compatibility in all browsers. Upload 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 define both a background image and a background video to ensure best results.

Background Video WEBM

All videos should be uploaded in both .MP4 .WEBM formats to ensure maximum compatibility in all browsers. Upload 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 define both a background image and a background video to ensure best results.

Background Video Width

In order for videos to be sized correctly, you must input the exact width (in pixels) of your video here.

Background Video Height

In order for videos to be sized correctly, you must input the exact height (in pixels) of your video here.

Individual Slider Design Options

Use Background Overlay

When enabled, a custom overlay color will be added above your background image and behind your slider content.

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

Use Text Overlay

When enabled, a background color is added behind the slider text to make it more readable atop background images.
