I am hopeful that Divi, will become a super complete Web Builder, surpassing Bricks, Elementor, which are having HUGE updates and which I feel Divi is currently lacking. I pray for it.

One step at a time. Gotta build a solid foundation for the rest of the building to be strong and effective.

Once Divi is at the point where Bricks is right now, it will be outdated again. Considering Divi 5 RC being postponed for ~1 year now, there won't be any features such as Flexbox or CSS Grid before 2025 (or even 2026). Let alone Query Loops, Class Management or CSS Framework-Integrations. I was hoping for Divi 5 to be great, but all the release delays made me switch to Bricks and I can't be happier now.
Love Divi! I've been working with Divi every day for several years and love my job. I'm really looking forward to the Divi 5 update. Thank you, ET, for always working hard on progress!
Divi 5 looks amazing. Worth the wait. It will be a game-changer. Thank you Divi team for all your hard work.
It's a real smiles party each time I watch a new video about Divi 5 update... For you too ? :-)
We 💜D5! Thank you ET!
Fantastic! Well done guys. Keep up the the good work 👍
😀 Exciting times, Nick & Team! 💡 One suggestion, if I may - a small issue with Divi4&5. 😵💫 When moving a large element (image, row) downwards, via drag&drop, the screen 'jumps' to fill the space, which is somewhat disorienting. ☑ A smoother UX would be for the vacated space to remain in place, greyed-out, until placement of the relocated element. 💜 Thanks, and keep up the great work! 🙏
The divi4 framework load on "individual" per-page-need on divi5 is remarkable! This will make any new content/pages load fast and the migration effortless as developers can take their time to convert old divi4 plugins to divi5.

Agreed! What a great feature!
Appreciated but when we will got it?! Also hope to make dynamic columns sizes and numbers, RTL support, can add PHP codes, custom loop, carousel, module support get all custom taxonomies and custom posts, multiple pagination types like numbers, load on scroll instead of now . Meet the Google speed requirements , if Divi is conflicted with code or plugin display it to help to debug

Don't forget : there will be zero new functionality on launch. Nick is wary of giving timelines, cos last time, many people got upset at how much later things turned out. Best thing is to ignore Divi5 till it's here.
You are always Rock! Thank you so much, we are really luck to be a part of Divi!
Looking forward to installing Divi 5 - oh and please drop the background music when you talk.
I'm so excited for Divi 5!
From this video, I really like the direction and approach you are taking with all of this. Have not yet had time to try the actual demo yet, but hoping to make time soon and start building it into some projects that will need to update later this year. Functionality with ACF, Divi Machine, gravity forms and Rank Math are top priorities for me. The Events Calendar as well for some of my older projects too.

just amazing, only question..date of final version....end of summer, of the year, 2nd qtr 2025..?
Unbelievably fast! 💯
I'm looking forward to this! The entire gameplay of Divi 5 will be changed 🎉
That will boost my workflow!! Thank you guys for your work :)
This sounds amazing! I hope it surpasses Bricks regarding loop builidng and clean code!
Yes I’m ready for this 5 to start building
Divi 5 this sooooo cool keep up the good work .❤❤👍👍
Very interesting. 🎉 I hope we have a powerfull pagebuilder at the end with all nesassary features in the core.
I hope they address the lack of accessibility functionality that Divi 4 suffers from. Accessibility should be part of the core not a Divi plugin.
Brother I love this guy he's so nice
I hope with this new update that I will no longer have to go into Divi Support and enable the :Safe Mode" due to the fact that layouts etc load very slowly. I love Divi and hope that everything is much faster.
Thank you very much ET for D5 but I have a small question: Is D5 going to support a way to cascade place rows in to columns? This would help tremendously to create unique layouts when building new webpages from scratch using the Divi Editor 🤓
We want flexbox, and more advance dynamic fields And custom loops in divi outofthebox
Very nice work guys!
Does the Divi Team consider RTL support and the use of Flexbox?
*PLEASE* ADD HOTKEYS TO THE BUILDER SO WE CAN CLONE/ DELETE SECTIONS WITH KEYBOARD AS WELL!!! LIKE IN ELEMENTOR ITS CTRL+D TO DUPLICATE VERY HANDY !!! STILL AMAZING JOB GUYS !!!
I am big fan of DIVI Theme...
Thank you! Lets go!!!
Excited for DIVI 5
So excited!
Love the speed!
How about RTL bugs ? Are they take cared??
All sounding good, but what is the timeline to get to public alpha/beta? We have no way of planning ahead.

It's not only on them! They have to make sure that all divi specific third party plugins before releasing it or a lot of websites would crash

Maybe they just announced it, too early. The wait just seems to be never-ending.
Will Divi 5 be accessibility-ready?
Great update!
I’m counting the minutes of when we can install D5
Looks like ET finally phoned home. :)
Could you please add ready block like other builders so we do not have to rely on others.
Flexbox?
Thank you ❤
Make it so that when you add a row you can choose amount of columns. Now you can only go up to 6.

@@buildyear86 Nick explicitly stated Flexbox in the last Divi 5 update video after launch. Likely it will be the first thing they work on. I tried to copy the link but Yt won't let me.
Fix this: Text Module > Settings > I need to click to open the text editor, should be open by default.
When is the release ? I almost switched to bricks but just couldn’t do it
Can you change the default text format from pixels to another format universally?
Dark theme > Gobal color > nothing shows (plus button) ... only when hovering
What happens when we run into client sites with plugins from years ago that were never updated? It sounds like Divi 5 will have an "automatic" legacy mode that loads the Divi 4 assets for these situations, but how does it affect things like JavaScript and CSS for those old components? How much of a performance impact is there when loading the Divi 4 assets and the Divi 5 ones?
@photomaldives

If they are so old, why update them at all? Personally, I would keep them as they are. Impossible to state the impacts, cos of the 100k+ plugins and customisations.

@@photomaldivesthat's my current thinking, but I'm unsure how compatible Divi 5 will be. Also, there's always the risk of security issues, but outdated plugins are certainly as vulnerable as outdated themes. It will likely be a case by case thing depending on whether I can find newer plugins to replace existing functionality on these sites, but unless the clients are going to pay for it, then they will need to wait until a new website is built.
I can wait 2026 to try Divi 5
