It’s official; the beta phases have ended, and Divi 5 has arrived!
This isn’t the end; it’s a new beginning for Divi, and we are moving forward faster than ever with weekly updates. If you use Divi 5, you’ll see a version 5.8 update notification today.
The majority of our team is focused on bug fixing and overall stability. However, after months of doing nothing but fixing bugs, we are slowly transitioning back to feature development.
That means the rate of innovation will accelerate significantly over the next few months.
If you want to get an early inside scoop, I often post progress reports in the Divi Theme Users Facebook group. Join us!
What’s New In Divi 5.8?
We implemented 66 bug fixes and improvements, along with a brand-new feature: Customizable Workspaces!
Some notable bug fixes include patches for several cache-related bugs that were causing styles to mysteriously go missing at night.
Customizable Workspaces
We released customizable workspaces in Divi 5.7.3!
The Divi 5 interface is incredibly customizable. You can choose which panels are opened and closed, where they are docked, whether they are floating or in a sidebar, their size, and their position.
You can combine panels into tabbed groups. You can choose which icons are visible in the top bar. You can choose between light and dark modes, as well as various color schemes, and more!
Now, every user on your website can make the visual builder their own by creating their own collections of saved workspaces.
Create your perfect default workspace, along with alternative workspaces that you can switch to on the fly depending on what you are building, your screen size, etc.
