What’s up Divi Addicts? Welcome to episode number 43 of the Divi addicts podcast where we’re talking about the new transform features and transform effects, that Elegant Themes is put into the Divi Theme. So we’re not even going to jump around and we’re going to get right into it today, we wanted to keep this as simple and back to form as possible. in the show notes, you saw that we’re returning to some of our roots. And I try and keep these things like you know, really short, we’ve gotten a little bit long winded here in the last few episodes. And we’re gonna try and keep this entire episode under the five to seven minutes.

So the first thing you want to talk about with transform is the stunning user interface. As always, it’s very cool. Elegant Themes has done an awesome job of keeping the UI simple, very visual as far as the drag and drop. And, you know, the different transform features, I think is freaking cool. You’ve got scale built right in position built right in where you can go left, right up, down, and it’s just a quick drag, you can rotate either, right? You can skew, you can do all these different transforms, you’ve got transform origin, you know that that looks freaking cool as well, where you can actually just kind of move things around on a on a grid, it just looks amazing. And this also ties in with hover effects. So you can go grayscale, you can hover and have it change its position with the transforms. And there’s just some really nice new effects that you can put into place.

The other part is the freedom that you have, you can just add this one little section of an image, and you can transform and move it around to where it lines up just right and create some some unique things. I’m super excited about this transform. And if you go back and look at some of our older episodes, you’re gonna see that we talked about this in a preview many, many, many, many, many months ago. So we’re super excited for it to finally come in with the transformer effects that they teased a long time ago, actually coming out, we’re super hopeful that the new Theme Builder is going to come out here in the next little while as well. So we’re all amped about it. We’re super excited and continue to be dedicated to Divi, as over three and a half years on the lifetime membership. I believe we’ve gotten our money and some for the initial investment.
