The Divi Comments Module

How to add, configure and customize the Divi comments module.

Updated over a week ago

The Divi Comments Module makes it easy to style the comment section on blog posts or pages.

With this module, you have full control over how the comments section looks, and you can place this module anywhere in your layout. A good-looking comments section is one step towards getting more engagement on your posts! Use this module to build a custom page template for the Divi Theme Builder blog posts.

Example of the Divi Comments Module

How to Add the Divi Comments Module to Your Posts using the Theme Builder

We'll use the Divi Theme Builder to edit a custom template for blog posts that will incorporate the Divi comments module in the design.

The Divi Theme Builder is where you can design custom headers, footers, and page templates for your website.

If you still need to design a custom blog post page template, learn how to do so here. To learn more about the Divi Theme Builder, click here.

Accessing the Divi Theme Builder

  1. Go to your WordPress DashboardDiviTheme Builder.
    This brings you to the Theme Builder dashboard, where all the custom templates for your website live.

Navigate to Divi Theme Builder

Edit the Custom Body of the Blog Post Template

  1. Navigate to your blog post template (you'll know it's the blog post template because it says All Posts in the description)

  2. Click the pencil icon next to Custom Body to edit the body portion of that page template.

This will load the page template with the drag-and-drop Divi Visual Builder interface, where we can begin styling the Divi comments module. If you still need to create a blog post page template, you can learn how to do so here.

Edit Page Templates With Full Site Front-end Editing

With the latest Divi update, you can edit global headers, footers, and page templates on the front end of your website using the Visual Builder and edit them using the Theme Builder. When creating new page templates, it's best to create them using Theme Builder (as demonstrated above). However, once the template is created and there is content on your website using that template, you can edit those templates on the front end of your website using the Visual Builder, which allows you to see the changes you're making in real time.

Divi Comments Module

CSS ID & Classes

Assign a specific CSS ID or Class to this module. This is helpful when applying custom CSS to a module by using your child theme's stylesheet.

Divi Comments Module

Custom CSS

  • Free-Form CSS - Write free-form CSS using the keyword selector to target this module. Example: selector h1 {color: red;}

  • Module Elements - You can also apply custom CSS to this module by pasting it in this tab. When you click on the Module Elements tab, you'll see individual sections where you can add custom CSS properties.

Conditions

This tab allows you to choose when to display this module based on a set of conditions, like when a user is visiting the page if they’ve already purchased from your company before, what browser they are using, what operating system they’re using, and more. You can add one condition or multiple conditions.

Visibility

  • Disable on - Defines the visibility of the module. You can disable it (hide it from view) when the display window is a Phone, Tablet, or Desktop by clicking the corresponding checkbox.

  • Horizontal Overflow - Defines what shows when content overflows a block-level element's left and right edges. This may be:

    • Visible - The content will show if the module's content overflows its height.

    • Scroll - If the module's content overflows its height, a vertical scroll bar will be used to scroll through its content.

    • Hidden - If the module's content overflows its height, the part of the content that overflows will be hidden.

    • Auto - The browser will decide whether a scroll bar will be shown.

  • Vertical Overflow - Defines what shows when content overflows a block-level element's top and bottom edges. This may be:

    • Visible - The content will show if the module's content overflows its height.

    • Scroll - If the module's content overflows its height, a vertical scroll bar will be used to scroll through its content.

    • Hidden - If the module's content overflows its height, the part of the content that overflows will be hidden.

    • Auto - The browser will decide whether a scroll bar will be shown.

Transitions

This controls the hover animation's transition duration, delay, and speed curve.

  • Transition Delay - Defines the transition delay of the hover animation (in milliseconds).

  • Transition Speed Curve - Defines the transition speed curve of the hover animation.

Position

  • Position - This defines the position of the module:

    • Relative (default value) - The module is positioned according to the normal flow of the document, and then offset values are relative to itself based on the values of Vertical Offset and Horizontal Offset. The offset does not affect the position of any other elements; thus, the space given for the module in the page layout is the same as if the position were default (static).

    • Absolute - The module is removed from the normal document flow, and no space is created for the element in the page layout. The module is positioned relative to its closest positioned ancestor (if any) or the initial containing block. The Location options determine its final position

    • Fixed - The element is removed from the normal document flow, and no space is created for the element in the page layout. The module is positioned based on the location options in relation to the browser window. This can be used to create a sticky module.

  • Vertical Offset - Defines the module's vertical position.

  • Horizontal Offset - Defines the module's horizontal position.

  • Z-index - Defines the order of the module in the page layout. Modules with a higher z-index number overlap modules with a lower z-index.

Position

Scroll Effects

This defines how the module behaves upon scrolling. You can make the module sticky (to top, bottom, or top and bottom) and choose if the module transforms upon scrolling.

You can also enable vertical motion on this module, which allows you to adjust the speed at which this element scrolls (making it faster or slower) without affecting the surrounding elements.

The Motion Trigger Effect allows you to choose when the scroll effect you just applied is triggered: when the top of the element is in view, the middle, or the bottom.
