Welcome to the tenth and final post covering the “100 day Countdown to Divi 3.0” in which Elegant Themes are publishing a post a day for 100 days. They are giving away Divi Library Packs and Extensions and sharing Divi Nation Podcasts and lots and lots of Divi Tips & Tricks.
Each day will take us closer to day 100 and on that day… Divi 3.0 will be released.
In this post I’ll give a brief summary of what’s been covered in each of the “countdown day posts” for days 91 to 100.
I’ve also added links to the original blog posts so that you can read them in full… and download all those free Divi goodies.

Day #91 – Divi Wireframe Kit for Creating Professional Landing Pages
Today’s post shows you how you can use the Divi Wireframe Kit to create impressive looking Divi pages and it also gives away a free Wireframe Landing Page and a finished landing page design.
Today’s video is a little different to the other videos in the “free Divi Layout packs series”, as Mario Maruffi explains:
I worked together with Nathan to provide a new variation on what has become our standard video/blog post format for these free Divi Layout packs.
This time around we’ll be getting into a lot more detail and (hopefully) teaching you a design skill that will prove valuable long into the future.
In this video Nathan Weller shows you how to take a layout created with the Wireframe Kit and convert it into a finished design.

We all know how powerful the Divi Library is, but are you using it to its full potential?
Today’s article digs a little deeper into the Divi Library and highlights ways to use it, that you may not have considered.
Not only can you save your own layouts for future use, you can download wonderful free layouts from the Elegant Themes blog and countless other sources. When you take full advantage of the Divi Library, you will find yourself shaving off hours and hours of development time from each new client project.
In this video Nick Roach shows you how to use the Divi Builder portability system, which allows you to import and export: Divi Builder layouts, library collections, role presets, Divi theme customiser settings and theme options.

Day #94 – The Final Divi 3.0 Video Sneak Peek: the integration of Undo, Redo and Revision History into the Visual Builder
Today we have the final Video Sneak Peek of Divi 3.0, which shows how undo, redo and revision history have been integrated into the visual builder.
Rather than tell you what’s in the video I’ll let Nick Roach do the introductions himself:
Today I would like to give you a look at how we have integrated undo, redo and revision history into the visual builder.
Not only are these cool features in and of themselves, but they are also a great way to showcase the speed of the builder and to show you how the visual nature of the new builder can often surprise and delight you with its intuition.
The ability to undo and redo in the visual builder is especially useful because you can use it to compare recent edits and see the differences in real time.
The revision history system keeps track of every change you make and allows you to jump backwards and forward through time to any moment during your editing session.

Day #95 – Free Small Business Divi Layout Pack by Olga Summerhayes
Today we have a small business Divi layout pack by Olga Summerhayes, which includes 4 pages: Home, Services, About and Contact.
You can easily modify this layout pack, to suit different types of businesses, by replacing images and text with your own.
You can also make the layout reflect your business branding by replacing the yellow coloured fonts and icons with your own brand colours etc.
Olga Summerhayes is a web designer and owner of Infinite Imagination Web Design, based in Australia. She is passionate about working with small businesses and helping them with their online presence. When she is not in front of a computer she spends time with her family.

Day #96 – 5 Fun Ways to Style Divi’s Blurb Module
Today’s post shows you 5 ways to style Divi’s Blurb Module in order to add interest and click-appeal to your pages.
The Blurb Module is one of Divi’s most popular features and although essentially simple, it’s packed with icon options and customizable features that can bring your website elements to life.
The Blurb Module can be used for services, benefits, contact information in fact just about anything that you want to display in a modular format instead of a plain old list.
Two of the Blurb styles are “Hover Over Blurbs” and “Grid Style Layout” and as you can see from the screenshot below, they look pretty cool:

Day #97 – 10 awesome Divi eCommerce Child Themes
I’m told that “The easiest and fastest way to create an eCommerce site with Divi is to use a pre-made eCommerce child theme”.
And that’s good because in today’s post Elegant Themes share their 10 Best Divi eCommerce Child Themes… plus an eCommerce plugin for Divi called Divi Commerce.
Divi Commerce is from Bolt Themes and it adds lots of customizations to WooCommerce product pages.
I’ve not used any of these child themes but they all look pretty good and I’ve added a screenshot of Nellie, Shop and Velvet below:
