Is Divi still the best drag and drop WordPress theme?
Divi by Elegant Themes remains the defining drag-and-drop WordPress theme, and Divi 5 - rebuilt from the ground up in 2025-2026 - answers its old performance criticisms with a faster, leaner Visual Builder. Membership costs $89 per year (or a one-time lifetime fee) and covers unlimited websites, the Divi Builder plugin and hundreds of layout packs. Front-end editing, global design variables and a huge ecosystem keep it the benchmark.
Best for: agencies and site builders who live in a visual builder daily and want one membership for unlimited client sites
The Divi WordPress theme practically invented the modern drag-and-drop category, and it is the only theme from this collection’s 2014 original that still defines it. Elegant Themes has rebuilt it from the ground up: Divi 5 is fast, lean and visibly modern, and our fresh screenshots show a Divi layout pack live on desktop, tablet and mobile. More than 1,000,000 customers use it, backed by 25,000+ five-star reviews.
Divi 5: the rebuild that answered the critics
For years Divi’s weak point was performance – the builder was powerful but heavy. Divi 5 started over, focusing on speed and advanced design systems. Consequently, pages load leaner, the builder responds instantly, and the codebase is ready for the next generation of features. Elegant Themes shipped it as a free upgrade for members.
Design variables, not just settings
The new global variables system treats colors, numbers, text and line heights as design tokens: define them once, reuse them everywhere, change them globally. Moreover, the builder edits on the front end with true visual feedback, and the layers panel keeps complex pages navigable. As a result, Divi now behaves like a design tool rather than a settings maze.
Divi 5 keeps shipping: AI, grids and loops
Development pace is the story of 2026. Recent Divi 5 updates added a visual CSS Grid editor, Loop builder modules for dynamic content and an Instagram module. Furthermore, Divi AI writes content, generates images and customizes code, while the brand-new Divi AI Agent – launched in September 2026 – builds whole sites from natural language prompts. Divi Dash rounds the ecosystem out by managing updates across every client site.
One membership, unlimited websites
Divi’s pricing stays its sharpest weapon. The $89 yearly membership – or a one-time lifetime fee – covers unlimited sites, the Divi Builder plugin, hundreds of layout packs and every future update. Therefore, an agency running thirty client sites pays less per site than a single ThemeForest licence costs. The Divi Marketplace adds child themes and extensions on top.
What to weigh before committing
Divi 4 stored layouts as shortcodes. Elegant Themes says Divi 5 no longer does and saves content in a block-based format instead. Still, your design lives in Divi modules, so moving a mature site to another builder takes real work. Furthermore, the builder’s depth means a steeper learning curve than a simple Elementor theme. Neither point dents its value for committed users; both matter if you are undecided.

Frequently Asked Questions
What changed in Divi 5?
Elegant Themes rebuilt the entire framework: a faster and leaner Visual Builder, modern code architecture, global design variables and a layers panel. It shipped as a free upgrade for existing members.
How much does Divi cost?
Membership is $89 per year or a one-time lifetime fee, and either covers unlimited websites, the Divi Builder plugin, layout packs and updates – a different model from single-site ThemeForest licences.
Is Divi good for agencies?
It is arguably the best agency deal in WordPress theming: one membership, unlimited client sites, consistent tooling and a huge ecosystem of layouts and extensions.
Is it hard to leave Divi later?
Divi 4 saved content as shortcodes, while Divi 5 uses a block-based format. Either way, your layouts are built from Divi modules, so switching to another builder later means rebuilding pages. Commit to Divi as a platform, not as a disposable skin.
Does Divi work for beginners?
Yes, though its depth takes time. The Visual Builder edits pages on the front end with drag and drop, and hundreds of layout packs give beginners a professional starting point.
Why does Divi have no ThemeForest rating?
Elegant Themes sells Divi directly rather than through ThemeForest, so there is no marketplace rating. Its track record stands in for one: on the market since 2013, with more than 1,000,000 customers and 25,000+ five-star reviews collected on its own platform.
