Welcome to the eighth 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 71 to 80.
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 #71 – WordCamps, meeting in person and Free Divi T-Shirts
Move along there folks, it’s Day 71 of the Divi 100 day Marathon.
The combined Orange County WordCamp and the community led Divi meetup was so successful that Elegant Themes would like to continue to encourage and help Divi users to meet in person.
They’re starting with the two remaining WordCamps they are attending this year, which are: WordCamp Columbus (August 26-28) and WordCamp US in Philadelphia (December 2-4).
And as an added incentive…
…..anyone from the Divi community who meets Elegant Themes at either of these WordCamps will get a free “powered by Divi” t-shirt.
All you have to do is ask (in person of course!). Oh, and be sure to RSVP on our meetup page via the buttons above to help us gauge how many shirts to bring to each event. See you there!
Sounds like a good deal to me and just to whet your appetite, here’s a screenshot of the gorgeous Divi T-Shirt:

Day #72 – Free Divi Download: Multipurpose Wireframe UI Kit Volume 2
Don’t blink or you’ll miss Day 72 of the Divi 100 day Marathon.
Wireframe Kit Volume 1 proved to be so popular that Elegant Themes have now brought out Wireframe Kit Volume 2.
Volume 2 provides a big boost to the variety of high-fidelity wireframes you’re able to create with Divi.
In this video Augustine Mak walks you through the full process of downloading, installing and using the new Wireframe Kit.

Day #73 – Join The Divi 3.0 Beta Program
And so to Day 73 of the Divi 100 day Marathon.
Divi 3.0 will officially be released on September 7th 2016 but before then… an awful lot of testing has to be carried out.
Elegant Themes do their own testing but they also run a Beta testing programme and in today’s post they ask for Divi users to apply to become part of the programme.
The great thing about being a Beta tester is that you get early access to Divi releases before the general Divi nation!
Sorry folks! Unfortunately by the time you read this post applications for Beta testers will have closed.
In fact Beta copies of Divi 3.0 will have been sent out to those lucky enough to have been accepted.

Day #74 – How to Add Links to Divi Fullwidth Slider Images
Is it that time already? Yes it’s Day 74 of the Divi 100 day Marathon.
Today we have a Divi Nation podcast, which shows you how to add links to Divi’s fullwidth slider images.
At the moment the Slider Module doesn’t have an option to add links, but there is a nice neat workaround, which is covered in this tutorial.
In this video Augustine Mak walks you through the full process of adding those links to your Fullwidth Slider images.

The Divi Shop Module is highly customizable, but are you using it to its full potential?

Using these five Divi Shop styles, with or without your own variations, will allow you to create a beautiful showcase of your own products.

Today’s article shows you how you can use some of the Module’s built-in settings to create simple but eye-catching designs that have a real impact.
Two of the Header styles are “Daze Cafe” and “Social Genius” and you can see them in the screenshot below:

Day #77 – Free Divi Landing Pages Layout Pack built with Wireframe Kit Volume 1
I hope you’re ready, because it’s Day 77 of the Divi 100 day Marathon.
Today we have a layout pack containing three Divi Landing Pages. These pages were designed using the Wireframe Kit Volume 1 and then finalized with content.
The great thing about this pack is that not only do you get more free layouts but you also learn what’s possible with the new wireframe kits.
In this video Augustine Mak shows you how to import, install and use this layout pack.

78 follows 77 so today it must be Day 78 of the Divi 100 day Marathon.
Today’s post answers one of the questions that Elegant Themes are most frequently asked: “how do I get my archive page layouts to match the blog’s masonry layout?”
Fortunately the Elegant Themes support staff have come up with an answer and today they share it with the whole Divi community.

Well done if you’ve made it this far because today is Day 80 of the Divi 100 day Marathon.
Today we have the Divi 3.0 Sneak Peek Video #2, which is stunning and I have to confess that I’ve watched it about a dozen times.
Rather than introduce the video myself, I’ll pass the honour over to Nick Roach:
While this first sneak peek showed off a lot of what the builder can do, we have since added even more features that I think you are going to love, and so I decided to make a second video to show off some of these new and awesome additions.
Keep reading and make your way down to the bottom of the post to watch the new sneak peek!
