AN AVERAGE DUDE EXPLAINING DIVI.
I made this Divi tutorials website because I’ve been designing websites off and on since 2001. I started with HTML and then PHP and then Flash until the iPhone came out and pretty much put an end to that. Then CSS for most of my styling. I tried Joomla and failed. Then WordPress, but I never used WordPress themes. I just created my own templates and went from there. Then one day I was perusing the web and found Elegant Themes and they were touting this new product they were about to launch called Divi. To be honest, I wanted to use their MyCuisine theme (until I realized it wasn’t responsive, and I had just started dabbling in making sites that were responsive).
Well, they launched Divi pretty much the same week that I signed up. Since I have a business and I’m used to investing money for long term benefit (don’t ask how much I’ve spent on video and camera equipment), I went ahead and signed up for the lifetime membership. I even became an affiliate marketer, although I think I’ll keep my day job. Read my Divi review for more information on my thoughts on the Elegant Themes WordPress theme.
Like my headline says, I’m just an average dude. I’m building this Divi tutorials website because hopefully my trials and tribulations are the same ones you’re going through and you can learn from my mistakes and insights. My main job is not as a website designer, it’s as a public relations consultant (read: I can write and communicate clearly) and as a video / advertising guru (read: pretty creative fellow). Therefore I don’t speak in website speak, so hopefully my information will not be confusing to the average Joe and Jane.
Thanks for stopping by.

Add Custom Pull-Quotes to Divi (aka Blockquotes)
Well, not all of you want the basic pull quote, so I decided to put my thinking cap back on and come up with some pull quote ideas for you all (or as my Southern friends are wont to say – y’all).
You may know pull-quotes as the newspaper term “Cut-Quote,” or as they’re called in WordPress’s Guttenberg “Blockquote” or the client term “Really Big Quote Thingy.” They’re all the same thing.
Code Snippet Syntax Highlighter that Works with Divi – Review
This is one of those plugins that’s only going to appeal to a certain number of people. People like me who have a need to add syntax code to websites. But if you’re one of those people, then I recommend you get the plugin — Divi Code Snippet Module — from the creator of Divi Booster. I tried 3 or 4 plugins in WordPress, every one of them …
3 Easy Ways to Add Pinterest Board Pins to Divi Websites Without Plugins
Here’s the dilemma. When I build websites, I build them primarily for a landscape screen. Most of my photos are optimized for landscape screens. My Facebook and Twitter graphics are for landscape screens. But Pinterest prefers portrait style graphics for its pin boards. See the problem? My website has graphics that are wider than they are long (landscape). Yet, Pinterest wants graphics that are taller than they are wide (portrait).
