What’s up Divi Addicts? Welcome to episode number 10 of the Divi addicts podcast. We’re super, super amped as always to be here. And this week, we’re dropping a podcast on Friday. It’s odd, right? We’re normally here on Sunday. But we’re, we’re so excited because there’s so much going on in the Divi community and in Divi’s development. So we had to drop an extra podcast this week and bring it to you on Friday.

So today, we’re talking about a feature that’s coming very, very soon to the Divi visual builder. And that’s fine to replace. So it’s take yourself back to high school or college when you’re writing a paper and you type this long word document or even in your professional life, you know, you’ve got to change a business name or something across this document that’s in there hundreds of times, there’s the wonderful Find and Replace feature with Divi is getting that feature Elegant Themes is dropping functionality into the visual builder, the same that word has. And this is this is a game changer, in my opinion, because it works for design. And that’s that’s a whole different deal. So without further ado, let’s jump into today’s episode.

So the Find and Replace feature is going to be something just like imagine that you’re writing a Word document or you have a Word document. So you have documentation for your business that you have in Microsoft Word, and you change your business name or you change something that’s reoccurring inside that document, you know, you’ve always gone up to edit, you hit find a replace, type in the word you want to replace, put in what you want to change it to and hit replace all and it’s like BAM 700 instances of this item were changed in seconds. It’s a good feeling right? It’s better than having to find them and realize it in 700 changes, you will change 699 of them but you missed one.

Divi is bringing the exact same thing to the builder, where you can go in, open up a text module or like a call to action. Find the group for title, you know, in this example, they’re showing title, you right click on it, and hit Find and Replace on the font. And so it’s going to give you the current font, it’s going to ask you where you want to edit this at Where do you want to make this change is it to the entire page is it to the current row or to the whole section that you’re in, then you pick the additional font that you want to change it to. So if you’re going from Times New Roman to Roboto, you can do that right in there, press apply. And it’s going to change the font across the whatever you chose in the middle section, either the entire page, the row or the section. This is extremely powerful. This powered with copying styles is a game changer inside the visual builder as far as speed. And this just reaffirms the fact that we spent great money to be a lifetime member of Elegant Themes.

It was an investment that is going to pay dividends for our business. And it’s going to be an incredible win for our clients. They’re going to get websites launched quicker, better and more consistent than ever. So thank you to Elegant Themes. Thank you to the Divi team, and the Divi Builder team especially because this works. As you said across any theme, you can put the Divi Builder plugin inside of any theme now, I suggest using it inside of Divi, just because those things are married, they’re one on the same. It’s like iOS on an iPhone, they just work. I love it. You can use it on any of them. You can also use it inside Elegant Themes other theme extra, the magazine style theme, and it’s just a beautiful, beautiful thing. We hope you’ve enjoyed hearing about this. We hope you’re really excited about the Find and Replace feature. We think it’s gonna be awesome.
