Install MCP for Divi 5

MCP for Divi 5 is a normal WordPress plugin. It lets Claude, ChatGPT and other AI assistants build and edit Divi 5 pages on your site. MCP is the Model Context Protocol, the standard way AI tools talk to other software.

Before you start

• Divi 5.1 or later, active as the theme. Divi 4 is not supported.
• WordPress 6.5 or later.
• PHP 7.4 or later.
• A WordPress account that can edit pages, such as an Editor or an Administrator. The AI tool works as the person who approves it, with that person’s permissions.

For browser sign-in the site also needs HTTPS and a permalink setting other than Plain. Without those you can still connect with an application password.

Install it

1. Download the plugin zip from your account. Where to find your downloads shows where it is.
2. In WordPress, go to Plugins → Add New and click Upload Plugin.
3. Choose the zip and click Install Now.
4. Click Activate Plugin.

Open the connection screen

The setup page opens by itself once the plugin is activated. It also lives under Divi → MCP for Divi 5, and the plugin’s row on the Plugins screen links to it. It walks you through adding your licence, checking your site, connecting your AI tool and trying it. The licence step shows only to administrators.

If Divi 5 is not active, or is older than 5.1, WordPress shows a warning saying so. Without Divi 5 the screen moves to the Tools menu until Divi 5 is on.

Next, connect your AI tool.
