Download a FREE Book Preview Divi Landing Page Layout Including Anchor Links & CTAs

Whether you’re selling a physical book or an e-book, having an effective landing page for it can do wonders. You can approach this landing page the traditional way, or you can turn it into a book preview landing page. A book preview landing page allows people to read certain parts or chapters of your book in advance. It’s also equipped with anchor links that make navigating through the different parts or chapters seamless. To top it off, you also want to put a CTA in the spotlight that’ll drive traffic to wherever you’re selling your book.

In this tutorial, we’ll recreate a stunning book preview landing page from scratch with Divi. You’ll also be able to download the layout JSON for free if you want to add it to your website right away.

Let’s get to it!

• Top Padding: 0px

Add Row

Column Structure

Continue by adding a new row to the section using the following column structure:

Add a gradient background to the third column as well.

• Color 1: #6a30ff
• Color 2: #a202ff

Then, go to the sizing settings and allow the row to take up the entire width of the screen by adding the following sizing settings:

• Use Custom Gutter Width: Yes
• Gutter Width: 1
• Equalize Column Heights: Yes
• Width: 100%

Move on to the spacing settings and remove the custom top and bottom padding of the row. Add some padding values to the first and third column as well.

Column 2 CSS ID

As you can notice in the preview of this post, there’s a scroll bar attached to the second column. If you want to style this scrollbar later on the post, go ahead and add a CSS ID to the second column.

• Column 2 CSS ID: style-scrollbar

Column 2 Main Element

The next thing we’re going to do is allow the column to be scrollable by adding the following lines of CSS code to the column 2 main element:

overflow-y: scroll;
height: 57.87vw;
scroll-behavior: smooth;

Add Text Module #1 to Column 1

Add Content

Now that we’ve modified all row settings, we can start adding the modules! Start with a Text Module in column 1 and add some content of your choice.

Text Settings

Go to the text settings of the module and make some changes.

• Text Font: Lato
• Color: #666666
• Text Size: 1.6vw (Desktop), 3vw (Tablet), 4vw (Phone)

Add Divider Module to Column 1

Sizing

Play around with the sizing values as well.

On to the third module, which is another Text Module. Here, we’ve added a symbol (►) followed by the first chapter title to the content box.

Once you’re done modifying the Text Module, clone it twice (or up to as many chapters as you want to share).

Change Content

Modify the content of each one of the duplicates.

Change Links

Along with the anchor ID at the end of the module link URL. In this case, that means adding ‘#chapter-2’ to the first duplicate and ‘#chapter-3’ to the second one.

Add Text Module to Column 2

Add Content

On to the next column, which is a scrollable one. Here, we’re going to use Text Modules to add different pages of the book preview. Start by adding the first Text Module with some content of your choice.

• Heading 2 Text Color: #5802ed
• Heading 2 Text Size: 2vw (Desktop), 2.5vw (Tablet), 2.9vw (Phone)

• CSS ID: chapter-1

Clone Text Module Twice

Once you’ve styled the Text Module, clone it up to as many times as you want.

Change Content

Change the content of each Text Module duplicate.

Style Scrollbar

Open Page Settings

The last part of this tutorial is dedicated to styling the scrollbar of the second column. Whether you style the column scrollbar or not is entirely up to you. Not styling it doesn’t change anything about the functionality. If you decide to style the scrollbar, open the page settings.

Add CSS Code

Then, go to the advanced tab and add some custom CSS to the Custom CSS box and you’re done!

#style-scrollbar::-webkit-scrollbar {
width: 1.1vw;
}
#style-scrollbar::-webkit-scrollbar-track {
background: #f1f1f1;
}
#style-scrollbar::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb {
background: #333333;
}
