  1. Hi, I guess Divi needs a library collection of pre-made templates for Headers and Footers only where one can customize and use in the Divi library options. A library collection of pre-made templates for Headers and Footers only would speed up work and boost up Divi.

  2. I need video tutorials for this ? on how to install and work on this design. it will be really very helpful for everyone.
