Divi Tutorial: How to use the Full Screen Menu module

full screen menu module

The full-screen Menu module on Divi makes it easy to add beautiful colored headers at the top of your pages (or anywhere on your website, if you wish). These modules can only be placed in full-width sections.

How to add the Divi full-screen menu module

Before you can add a full-screen Menu module to your page, you must first jump into Divi Builder. Once the Divi theme is installed on your website, you will notice a Use Divi Builder button above the post editor every time you create a new page. Click on this button to activate Divi Builder and access all the Divi Builder modules. Then click on the Use Visual Builder button to launch the builder in visual mode. You can also click the Activate Visual Builder button when browsing your foreground website if you are logged into your WordPress dashboard.

Once you have entered Visual Builder, you can click the gray plus button to add a new module to your page. The New Full-Screen Menu module can only be added inside fullwidth sections. If you are starting a new page, don’t forget to add a fullwidth section to your page first.

Locate the full-screen menu module in the list of modules and click on it to add it to your page. The list of modules is searchable, which means you can also type the word “full-screen header” and then click “Enter” to automatically find and add the full-screen header module! Once the module is added, you will be greeted by the module options list. These options are separated into three main groups: Content, Design, and Advanced.

Example use case: Adding a full-screen header to an About page

For this example, I’ll show you how to use the Fullwidth header module to add a header with custom text and a background image.

All full-screen modules are only available when using full-screen sections. Using Visual Builder, insert a new full-screen section. Then add a Person module to the section.

Update the full-screen header settings as follows:

Content options

Design options

Advanced options (custom CSS)

Main element:
padding: 100px 0;

Full-screen header content options

In the content tab, you will find all the content elements of the module, such as text, images, and icons. Everything that controls what appears in your module will always be found in this tab.

Enter your page title here.

Subtitle Text

If you want to use a caption add it here. Your caption will appear below your title in a small font.

Background color

Define a custom background color for your module or leave it blank to use the default color.

Background overlay color

Choose a background overlay color, which will be placed above the background image. Semi-transparent overlay images can create some cool effects when placed on top of background images.

This will change the module label in the constructor for easy identification. When you use the WireFrame view in Visual Builder, these labels appear in the module block of the Divi Builder interface.

Fullwidth header design options

In the Design tab, you will find all the styling options for the module, such as fonts, colors, sizing, and spacing. This is the tab that you will use to change the appearance of your module. Each Divi module has a long list of design settings that you can use to change anything.
