The Divi Fullwidth Slider Module

How to add, configure and customize the Divi fullwidth slider module.

The Divi Fullwidth Slider Module can be used to display eye-catching CTAs (call to actions), highlight important content on your website like a popular page or post, and break up text content for a visually appealing page design. Fullwidth sliders can be placed anywhere on your page and support parallax backgrounds, images, and videos, and have content fields for a title, body text, and a button.
