Enabling divi builder on wooCommerce Product Pages

3 comments

1. You can easily integrate the Divi builder into Woocommerce or any other custom post type for that matter with a small code snippet which can be added to your Theme’s functions file. Remember to use a child theme whenever customizing theme core files such as the functions.php file as we will be.

   If you are not familiar with a WordPress Child Theme you can always use one of my prefered plugins when in a crunch for time. Child Theme Creator by Orbisius

   Here is the snippet to add woocommerce to the child theme, I also added a second custom post type to further show you how this example works.

    // Begin Adding Divi Builder Support to Custom Post Type
    function my_et_builder_post_types( $post_types ) {
        $post_types[] = 'product'; // This is the name of the Woocommerce custom post type
        $post_types[] = 'latest_news'; // My own custom post type I have added to my website.
   
        return $post_types;
    }
    add_filter( 'et_builder_post_types', 'my_et_builder_post_types' );
    // End Adding Divi Builder Support to Course Post Type
   

   So what have we done here?

   1st. We created our function

   2nd. We specified our post types we want added

   3rd. We added our new filter

   There you have it, its that simple. This will allow you to better layout your description content on your woocommerce product pages.

2. I know that this answer is much down the timeline but I think it will be helpful for others who are trying to achieve the same thing.
   This Elegant themes blog post describes a solution, the
   Divi Commerce Plugin
   and here is the link to Bolt Themes
   Enjoy.

3. The Divi builder can’t be activated on product pages. This feature is not supported.

   This is with the Divi builder plugin and the Divi theme itself.

   I personally feel that you will be using product / page functionality of you had Divi active on the single product pages.

   From a user experience you will be loosing the direction to getting a client to add the product and checkout as the page will be out completely.

   Use Divi for your main pages and marketing, keep the WooCommerce pages for the products!
