One of the advantages of Divi is the vast amount of modules available in the builder. What’s even better is that you can add new modules in the form of plugins. This greatly enhances what you can do with Divi. There are a lot of plugins available in the Divi Cake shop to add new modules to your Divi website. In this article, we’ll look at the 12 best custom Divi modules to help you decide which are best for your needs.
These are plugins that most sites could use, so I’ve left out a few amazing plugins that are more specialized, such as those for events or WooCommerce. The plugins are in no particular order.
1. Divi Breadcrumbs Module
Divi Breadcrumbs Module lets you add breadcrumb navigation anywhere within your Divi layouts so visitors can easily know where they are within your website’s structure. It doesn’t require other plugins, such as YOAST SEO, to add the breadcrumbs. The breadcrumbs are completely customizable using Divi tools. It also provides SEO benefits by sending information to Google about your hierarchy using schema.org markup.
