Let’s be honest, sometimes the biggest hurdle in Divi isn’t the tech. It’s the overwhelm. You open your website, spot six different problems, and immediately feel the urge to shut the laptop and go make a cuppa.
If that’s you today, pause. Breathe. Then pick just one of these three small but mighty ways to fix Divi. They don’t take long but they genuinely make your site feel more finished, more you, and more under control.
1. Tidy Up One Section That’s Been Bugging You
You know the one. The section you scroll past quickly because it makes you wince a little — too busy, too bland, or just plain wrong. Start there.
Here’s how to fix Divi sections:
- Simplify the layout: fewer fonts, fewer colours, fewer distractions.
- Check spacing: is everything too crammed or floating too far apart?
- Ask yourself: does every element here serve a purpose?
Cleaning up a single section won’t fix your whole homepage, but it will give you momentum. And sometimes that’s all you need.
💡 Pro tip: If it turns out lovely, save it to your Divi Library. Future you will thank you.
2. Reset That One Weird Button
Divi buttons have a habit of going rogue. One minute they’re polished and on-brand. The next? One’s in Comic Sans with a border straight out of 2003.
If your buttons don’t match, the culprit is usually custom styles that are overriding your global defaults.
Here’s how to fix Divi buttons:
- Go to Divi → Theme Customiser → Buttons and set your global style (font, colour, hover effect, etc.).
- Then edit the rogue button module and look for any custom settings.
- Click the little reset arrow next to each style to revert to the global look.
You’ll go from chaotic to consistent in under five minutes.
3. Check Your Homepage on Mobile (Then Fix Just One Thing)
Divi’s mobile view is like a well-meaning intern. It tries to help, but sometimes it rearranges things into complete nonsense. If your homepage looks great on desktop but turns into a puzzle on mobile, don’t panic — just tweak.
Start with:
- Headings that are too big
- Buttons too wide or misaligned
- Sections that feel too crammed or floaty
Switch to the mobile view (bottom menu in the Visual Builder), tap through phone and tablet views, and make gentle adjustments to margins and font sizes.
No need to fix everything. Just improve the part that bugs you most. Small wins, remember?
Wrap-Up: One Tweak Is a Triumph
You don’t need to rebuild your whole site to make progress. A tidy section, a consistent button, a smoother mobile view — those are real wins.
And you didn’t just “fix a thing.” You improved your site’s usability, brand consistency, and customer experience. That’s smart, strategic work.
So here’s your gentle reminder: it’s not about doing everything at once. It’s about doing one thing at a time to fix Divi, calmly and clearly.
