Using The Divi Condition Options

Divi Condition Options allow you to apply advanced logic to any section, row, or module to hide or display elements based on a set of conditions.

The Divi Condition Options allow you to apply advanced logic to any section, row, or module to hide or display elements based on a set of conditions. You can define a set of conditions such as user role, date and time, browser, device, post information, website location, and more.

For example, you can choose to display specific content based on date and time. Or you can choose to display unique content to users when they log in and show unique elements to specific users based on their user role.

This is a powerful feature within Divi, so in this document, we’ll go over how to access the Divi Condition Options, how to use them, best tips and practices, and more.

Let’s dive in!

How To Access Condition Options

Condition options are available in all of Divi’s sections, rows, and modules. Simply hover over the element you’re working on, click the gear icon to bring up the settings, and then navigate to Advanced > Conditions.

Add a Condition

To add a condition, click the grey + icon that says “Add Condition”. This will bring up all of the condition options that you can apply.

Adding Divi Condition Options

Showing or Hiding Elements

To show or hide an element, you’ll need to add a condition that will control an element’s visibility. When conditions are met the element will be visible. When conditions are not met the element will be hidden. For example, below a member’s only discount banner will display only if the user is logged into the website.

Setting Multiple Conditions

Within the Divi Condition Options, you’re able to apply multiple conditions to create advanced rules for an element’s visibility. You can choose to display or hide an element based on whether all or one of the conditions are met.

For example, you can choose to show a discount code banner IF that user is logged in, has purchased a product before, and is using a browser. You can make all of these three conditions required to be met, or just one condition to be met, in order for the banner to be visible.

Create Intelligent Shopping Experiences to Capture Sales

Learning how to retarget customers is a game-changing marketing technique that allows you to incentivize customers to buy items they’ve viewed before and added to their cart, but then abandoned after leaving your website without purchasing. This retargeting technique can help you close more sales, boost profits, and engage more customers.

One effective way to retarget customers is to offer return customers a discount or promo code on the items they added to their cart previously. However, the important part is to offer these discounts only to users who have abandoned their carts. Using the Divi Condition Options allows you to show or hide content based on a user’s WooCommerce cart content and page visits. This conditions combination makes it possible to retarget those users who have abandoned their carts with a discount or promo pop-up. To learn how to do this, check out this article.

Tips & Best Practices For Using the Divi Conditions Options

When using the Divi Condition Options, keep the following tips in mind.

Map Out Content Behaviors

When you’re creating complex content behavior based on multiple condition options, it’s important to keep a clear picture of the rules you are applying and how that content will behave based on a set of circumstances. We recommend mapping out when you want content displayed throughout your website so you have a document you can refer to in order to see the big picture.

Test Your Condition Options

It’s always a good idea to test the condition options you have set to make sure they are properly working. We recommend checking out Browserstack and other free online tools to simulate your tests.
