I've had huge issues with Astra Pro + Divi builder + woocommerce. You? These just don't work together. It's either Astra + woocommerce, or Divi theme + woocommerce. Thoughts?
The thing I like about Divi is the custom templates by product or category. How does that fit in with Astra? What about WooCommerce customizations or custom post attributes?
Great info. Just wondering what the MED (minimum effective dose) is in terms of setting up Astra Pro? Meaning if we're going to use the Divi plugin (with Quick Sites or AI builder), how many of those settings will be overwritten by the page builder plugin? Thanks.
Wow, the customization options in Astra Pro are mind-blowing! The flexibility and features make it a game-changer for website design. Can't wait to see more!
I like the idea but do we really want to be paying for two different builder platforms annually? If Astra pro can allow us to create template pages like divi does, I might consider it but also the practicality of moving around 90 clients to another builder is daunting.
Yes, but when DIVI 5 will be available? We all have to wait. In the meantime I think that the choice depends on what kind of site one has to build. For simple ones that need frequent global changes and less customization Astra could be a good solution. Plus knowing better another Theme builder is always a plus for a web designer, expecially if it can bring faster solutions to certain tasks.
Hey there - thank you for pointing out the difference between the Divi theme and the builder. Quick question, have you tested Astra Theme with Divi 5? Are you going back to the Divi theme/builder combo with Divi 5?
Nah, I used both Divi and Astra, in the past and plus so other themes like Blocksy, Ocean WP, and so on. And in the end it all comes down to preference, that's it! They all, can create good working websites the only difference is website builders and extra customization options that some theme's have and other don't. But if you already have a clear look of your website, you can do it with any website builder or theme.
Pushed from divi to Breakdance and haven't looked back. Divi interface and output was so clunky that it is night and day. I'll check 5 out when it ever comes out.
I don't see any problem with utilising the strong points from different systems to achieve the best results. It's only a personal choice (and each person has reasons) whether to choose to use something that's more readily convenient, or to try to find ways to make the most use of something we've already been using. Of course there's the compatibility problem in the long run, that's what we've got to watch out for. Otherwise, I see no harm in acknowledging what other systems do better and make your work easier for the moment.
Sorry, I have been very disappointed by Mak for weeks, if you have read my mails you know why I say so. And now, after so much time talking wonders about Divi, he comes out with Astra.... Mak, I don't understand very well why you do it, if you are bored, or you have simply lost the north. You know very well that everything that you comment in this video with Divi can be done perfectly well, you know it. What are you playing, you have no patience to see how the new version of Divi 5, or 6 comes out? Sincerely Mak, you have me puzzled, and a little worried. Give signs of life please!
As someone who used Divi from start I must say for any more serious webshop with using Ajax and filters Divi lacks big time. If you try create modern shop up to standards of 2024 you will need a lot of extras beside Divi theme. Divi misses some big targets. Like more advance grid product module and Ajax filter that works with it. Tried Divi woo extended and a lot of similar products witg more than few paid Ajax filters not one works as it should. So I'm looking at astra pro + Divi builder maybe. Or astra pro+ Gutenberg.
I can appreciate the streamlining of those features because it definitely gives your site a more polished feel when you are consistent. However, I believe that you can really achieve a lot of this stuff by setting up a global dizzy template as a starter theme.
As someone who who participating in the Divi 5 developers Beta, I can tell you that the new Divi 5 is going to be a total game changer and make Astra Pro look dated! Divi 5 is AMAZING! Wonder if you will return to Divi when Divi 5 is released? LOL
What's the point of all this stuff you're mentioning in the beginning? You just go in the Divi builder and do everything there. Who cares about all the stuff that you say is dated? We don't even use/see that.

You’ll be back to Divi 😊

Divi got that AI page builder now, it creates the entire page text, image and layout with a single prompt, you may want to reconsider lol

So, is the Divi Builder superior to the actual Astra Site Builder?

What about the divi university?
Have you seen any changes like these to Divi 5?
When I add the Divi Builder plugin, the website gets corrupted.

Don’t blame Mak, divi 5 is taking way to long
I bought DIVI lifetime some years ago and I never use it. I use other themes. 🥴
Mak, Great explanation!

Seems a little premature considering divi 5.0 is due and seems to be all-singing and all-dancing.
Thank you! I'm brand new to Divi and I was about to download the Divi theme until I watched this video! 💯💯❤❤

Only doing it for clicks
What do you mean? Clicks are important for any content creator.
Astra support - Sucks!
You should delete all of the other videos you have made promoting Divi.
Did you watch the full video?
@@sitekrafterWe did and we saw the custom thumbnail too. How to lose credibility .
