The official release of Divi 5 is scheduled for February 26th. Divi 5 has been available for some time. In fact, we recommend it for building new websites, and 40% of our customers are already choosing it. That’s no surprise because it’s better than Divi 4 in every way, and once you get used to it, it’s hard to go back!
Some third-party plugins have yet to add support, but their Divi 5 updates are now beginning to arrive.
It has been a long journey, but all of the pieces are coming together. 🤩
Removing The Beta Label
We’ve kept Divi 5 in beta for an extended period, giving creators more time to make their plugins compatible and allowing our community members to adopt it at their own pace. Meanwhile, we’ve been continually improving it, adding new features every week or two.
Our message has been simple: You can choose Divi 4 or Divi 5, whichever works best for you. We’ll continue to improve it, and the community will naturally make the switch, not because we’ve forced it, but because the grass is greener on version 5!
That said, the time has come to take the next step. We will be removing the beta label on February 26th.
If you are already using Divi 5, nothing will change. If you haven’t tested Divi 5 yet, you have some time to jump in and familiarize yourself with the new interface and dozens of new features.
Continued Divi 4 Support
To make the transition as stress-free as possible, we will continue to support Divi 4 for at least an additional six months after the official release of Divi 5. You will have the option to opt in to Divi 5 or stay on the Divi 4 update path and continue to receive critical security and compatibility updates. After the grace period, the update paths of all Divi websites will converge, and Divi 4 websites will receive the Divi 5 update notification.
This will give third-party developers even more time to add Divi 5 support to their plugins.
