Divi has long been considered one of the most powerful and versatile WordPress themes. With the introduction of Divi 5, we’re shaking things up.

With the release of Divi 5, shortcodes are gone, and we’ve completely rewritten the framework from the ground up. In this post, we’ll explore how Divi’s new framework, built similarly to Gutenberg blocks, is more efficient and powerful than ever.
