To make the Global Header sticky it is not necessary to insert a CSS code. There is a line in the row settings "Scoll effects" where you can make a hook on "stick to top". Sorry for my english, but I have translated it from the Divi Builder in German language.

As someone who understands CSS there are a couple things that can be improved here. - max-width should be applied to the Row not the Section - Instead of setting the top-margin:10px, you should be using flex-box to center this items within the Nav It's a shame Divi does not allow you to customize flex box options within the Design tab.

This video is really good but misses out a lot of stuff you might need. BEWARE, once applied you can't access the top sections module to edit pictures or any top/first module settings. The module editor is obscured by the global header. There are issues with drop-down menus and the mobile version. I had to get the support guys to fix these issues (which took several hours). They had to add extra code. Eventually, I had so many problems I deleted it in the end. If you have a basic site with no drop downs this is good. Anything more and you might have problems.

Thanks to Pee-Aye Creative: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bLuCrLOBnLWnlqs.html Go to your backend, your WP dashboard and Add code to the < head > of your blog. You'll find this here: DIVI- Theme Options -Integration. Copy and paste the following code over there: jQuery(document).ready(function(){ var totalheight = 0; jQuery(".et-l--header .et_builder_inner_content .et_pb_section").each(function(){ totalheight = totalheight + jQuery(this).outerHeight(); }); totalheight = totalheight + "px"; jQuery("#et-main-area").css("padding-top",totalheight); }); Good luck

I bought a license of Divi. And I can definitely say Elementor is waaaay more stable and mature. Divi looks cooler but turns out it has tons of bugs. Animated elements in the editor start behaving weird ( flickering, jumping here and there) and you have to switch to the block view eventually which is contrary to what it should be. After placing code widget in a custom header design ( few simple jQuery lines ) , even the block view won't work :( Guys you have to seriously improve. At this point , it is a toy for me, not a serious tool.

@jamesdavis8731 2 жыл бұрын

Totally agree. Those that have just used DIVI do not understand how far it is behind Elementor and Thrive Architect. Ridiculous. For example: In Thrive Architect making a sticky header and adding all sorts of scrolling and sticky properties to an element is super simple. NO CSS needed. DIVI could be GREAT - but it is just too unstable and not very intuitive. Sometimes when using DIVI (because certain clients want it) I am amazed how many steps you have to go through to just do simple basic things.

Kevin Allen. I found a work around to fix it. It’s another Divi thing that doesn’t quite work. Instead of putting the radius on the section I put it on the bottom row. I then had to mess with the radius settings choosing the Hover state first and then back to the desktop state or else it didn’t work... I think there are some teething problems with some of the theme builder settings. Mak’s stuff is great but very fast and not many explanations for why he is doing things. For example if you do set overflow to hide you will lose any drop down menu. Gotta love Divi even though sometimes the first time you do something is very painful.
