Nested Rows
Nested Rows allow you to place rows inside of rows, offering infinite nestability within the Visual Builder. This feature breaks the limitations of traditional layouts, allowing you to build intricate designs with flexibility. Using Nested Rows, you can create advanced card layouts neatly organized within a single column. The benefits are clear: Nested Rows provide responsive column structures that adapt seamlessly across devices.
Module Groups
Module Groups are a new container element in Divi 5, allowing you to group multiple modules within a column for unified styling and management. This feature streamlines your workflow by letting you style, move, or duplicate an entire group in one action. Module Groups are also designed to integrate with upcoming features like Flexbox and the Loop Builder, making them future-proof for dynamic layouts.
Why They Work Well Together
Combining Nested Rows and Module Groups unlocks the ability to create intricate, reusable card layouts. Nested Rows provide the structure flexibility to organize complex elements, while Module Groups simplify styling and management by treating those elements as a single unit. Together, they allow you to build easily replicated layouts across your site. Whether you’re showcasing team members, services, or FAQs, this duo makes creating professional, scalable designs simple.
9 Card Layouts For Divi 5
Below, we explore 9 advanced card layouts showing the power of Divi 5’s Nested Rows and Module Groups. These layouts, ranging from pricing pages to video galleries, demonstrate how to easily create visually stunning, responsive designs. By leveraging Nested Rows for flexible structure and Module Groups for consistent styling and reuse, you can build professional, scalable layouts for any purpose. Each example highlights practical examples and time-saving techniques to elevate your Divi websites.
1. Pricing Plans
Combining Nested Rows and Module groups is a great way to showcase pricing on your website. With Divi 5’s Nested Rows, you can create a structured layout where each pricing card is housed within its own Module Group, allowing for flexible layouts that you can easily copy and paste. In this example, we started with a Module Group, styled it, and incorporated Nested Rows for the buttons. Creating a card layout with a Module Group makes it easy to save and reuse throughout your site.
2. Services
Services pages are essential for businesses looking to highlight their offerings in a clear, visually appealing way. With Divi 5, you can create a multi-tiered layout where each service card is housed within a Module Group, allowing for unique styling and content depth. For example, nest a row within the Group for a heading and link, create a single column row for the heading and body text, and follow it up with a two-column Nested Row for buttons. You can copy the Module Group and make small design changes in seconds.
Restaurant menus require a balance of visual appeal and organized information. Divi 5 allows you to create grid-like structures where each menu item card is contained within a Module Group. By adding design elements to a group for consistent styling, you can easily add new items to your menus without repeatedly redesigning the entire card.
4. Team Member Bios
Showcasing your team builds trust and personality for your brand. With Divi 5, you can create dynamic team member cards with layered content, such as a photo, name, role, and bio, all within a single column. You can then incorporate Nested Rows into your layout for social media links and a link to an individual team page. Save the Module Group to your Divi Library, and adding new team members in the future is a breeze.
5. Client Testimonials
Testimonials add credibility, and Divi 5 makes them visually striking. Use Nested Rows to organize testimonial cards in a grid layout, each containing a client’s quote, name, and job title. Module Groups allow you to bundle these elements for unified styling. This setup lets you easily add or rearrange testimonials while maintaining design consistency. With Divi 5’s responsive controls, you can ensure your layout looks great no matter the device on which it’s being viewed.
6. Event Listing
Event promotion pages need to grab attention and convey key details. Nested Rows in Divi 5 allows you to structure event cards with layered content, such as an event image, location, title, date, and link to attend. Module Groups streamline styling by grouping these elements, enabling quick duplication for multiple events.
7. Real Estate Listing
Real estate listings demand a clear, attractive presentation of properties. Using Nested Rows and Module Groups in Divi 5 allows you to structure listing cards with layered, easily copied content. This approach streamlines adding new listings, making it possible to avoid expensive listing services with recurring costs.
8. Product Display
E-commerce product pages need to highlight products effectively. Thanks to Module Groups and Nested Rows, Divi 5 allows you to create product cards with multiple columns within a single column. Creating a product listing page this way frees you from the constraints of vanilla WooCommerce websites and gives your visitors a beautiful way to browse your featured products.
9. Video Gallery
Video galleries are perfect for displaying tutorials, demos, or other creative video content. Using Nested Rows and Module Groups allows you to create a grid where each video card is in its own column with a unique layout. This setup makes it easy to add new videos while maintaining a cohesive, professional look.
Best Practices For Creating And Reusing Advanced Card Layouts
To maximize the potential of Divi 5’s Nested Rows and Module Groups when creating advanced card layouts, adopting a strategic approach ensures efficiency, consistency, and scalability. Below are a few tips to help you create professional, reusable designs that boost your website’s aesthetic and functionality.
Style Consistently
Divi 5’s Design Variables allow you to define universal styles for fonts, colors, spacing, and more. By setting these variables in the beginning, you ensure that all card layouts maintain a cohesive look across your site. For example, define a primary color palette, typography settings, and spacing values in the Variable Manager. Apply these to Module Groups to avoid repetitive manual styling.
Save Module Groups For Reuse
Save your styled Module Groups to the Divi Library or Divi Cloud for easy access across multiple pages or projects. For example, if you create a pricing card layout, saving it allows you to reuse it on other websites or pages without rebuilding from scratch. Organize your layouts with clear, descriptive names to quickly locate them later.
Responsive Design
With the increasing variety of devices and screen sizes, responsive design is a must. Divi 5’s Customizable Breakpoints allow you to fine-tune card layouts for every device. When designing your layouts, test layouts at different breakpoints to ensure all design elements scale as intended.
Leverage Presets For Rapid Updates
Divi 5’s Element and Option Group Presets allow you to apply styling changes across all instances of a module or specific design element. For example, if you decide to update a button style in your card layouts, presets ensure the change propagates to all relevant modules instantly. This is a great tool for large websites with multiple layouts. Creating presets for commonly used elements like buttons, headings, or images within your layouts is a good practice to maintain consistency and speed up the design process.
By following these best practices, you can harness the full potential of Divi 5’s Nested Rows and Module Groups to create advanced card layouts that are visually stunning, responsive, and easy to maintain.
