The Before/After Image Slider module in Divi 5 lets you place two images on top of each other and reveal the difference with a draggable slider.
You drop in a 'before' and an 'after' image, then style the handle, labels, and layout so visitors can interactively compare changes, results, or alternatives in a single, focused module.

The Divi Before/After Image Module Use Cases
Showcase visual transformations: Use the Before/After Image Slider module to display transformations like renovation projects, makeovers, retouching, or edits. Add the module, set a 'before' photo on one side and an 'after' on the other, then let visitors drag the handle to see exactly what changed between the two states.
Compare product variations or options: Place two product images in the slider to compare finishes, colors, or model revisions. For example, show an old vs new packaging design or different colorways of the same product so users can quickly spot differences without scrolling through multiple separate images.
Explain design or content improvements: Use the module to demonstrate before/after states for a website redesign, infographic update, or UI change. The slider makes it easy to highlight improvements in layout, readability, or branding by letting users scrub between the original and updated versions on the same canvas.
