Sneak Peek
One of the best things about this tutorial is the fact that we’ll not be using any additional CSS (or code of any kind for that matter). All the examples we’ll be creating will only use the options that are included within the Divider Module. Let’s take a quick look at the dividers we’ll build before I show you how to create each on step by step:

Create Reusable Section
The first thing you’ll need to do is create the section that we’ll use throughout all 10 examples. Of course, you can use the dividers in other contexts as well, but by making this section first, you’ll have the opportunity to play around with your own Divi Builder and see which one you prefer.
Create New Page
Start by creating a new page in your WordPress dashboard, enabling the Divi Builder and opening the Visual Builder.
Create Section with Three-Column Row
Once you’re on your new page, create a standard section and use a three-column row within that standard section. We’ve used ‘#f4f4f4’ as the section background color.
Add First Text Module
Then, add the first Text Module to the first column of the row. Open the settings, type down the text you want to appear and go to the Design tab. Within the Design tab, make the following changes to the Text subcategory:
- Text Font: Lobster
- Text Font Size: 35
- Text Color: #000000
- Text Line Height: 1.7em
- Text Orientation: Center
Add Second Text Module
Once you’ve added the first Text Module, you can add another one right below it. Add the text you want to appear and go to the Design tab. Within the Design tab, make sure the following modifications apply:
- Text Font: Roboto
- Text Font Size: 14
- Text Line Height: 1.7em
- Text Orientation: Center
Clone Text Modules & Place in Other Two Columns
Once you’ve created these two text modules, you can put them in the other two columns of the row as well.
Before Getting Started
We’re going to share 10 fun ways you can style Divi’s divider module. Each one of the examples will have three dividers that are in harmony with one another. Most of the settings are the same for all three modules. We’ll start by showing you the settings that count for each one of them and continue by showing the changes you need to make to the other two dividers. So, every time you finish the first divider, clone it and place it in the other two columns. Once you’ve done that, you can make the modifications to the other two dividers.
Note: For each one of the dividers, you’ll need to enable the ‘Show Divider’ option within the Content tab.

Are these animations available for any of the other modules?
Really cool stuff, but I have issues with setting up 8. The Elegance… I think there is something missing in the instructions?
great post, thanks.
It is amazing, I am gonna use the first one!!!!!!
Awesome ideas – thank you so much for posting. How I wish if ET makes these effects available for download, alongwith the tutorials!!
Very well explain. I will try this at my blog.
Great work always.
I love Divi, it’s an absolute godsend, and your post explained it all very well.
I find these kinds of effects are extremely annoying (perhaps it’s just me, I am a little obsessive compulsive). When I have to deal with a website that has constantly jiggling elements I find myself scrolling to get them off screen.
Didn’t we figure this out back in the ’90’s?
I would prefer the team focus on getting the basics working right, so I don’t have to use a hundred lines of custom CSS!
It’s like the blink tag back in the good old days of Internet Explorer 2. Stuff like this is ok in small dozes but people remember when it comes to design “less is more”…
This is incredible! Thank-you for this tutorial. Was just starting to experiment with these new settings. Great example to follow.
Great as always.
Hello Donjete, as always an exceptional job in the post and another great competitive argument for DIVI
greetings and thanks from Asturias.
Absolutely brilliant.
Thanks
Is there a download ?
These are so cool! Thanks so much for posting this and please come back some more with ideas.
Nice, shows that there are lots possibilities and creative freedoms that can be taken with the divider module and the new animations.
