Add A New Protect Section
Make your way to the Protect Sections area of Divi Engine. Once inside, you will need to add a new section and give it a unique name.
Create Protected Content
Using the section, row and module building blocks of the Divi builder, create the content you would like to hide behind the Divi Protect login form.
Configure Cookie Settings
Divi Protect enables you to define how long the password stays in the user's browser. This is a great way to ensure maximum safety.

Enter A Password & Shortcode
Assign a password of your choice to the Divi Protect login form on the right hand side of the screen. You can add multiple passwords here, separating them with a comma. You can use our password generator to get a strong random password by clicking HERE.
To assign this protected section to your website you can use a shortcode or our module. If you decide to go with the shortcode then you will need to create a shortcode for this protect section by entering in a unique arrangement of letters and the underscore sign.
Customize The Divi Protect Form
Below the divi builder there are a number of settings which enable you to control how the form for the protected section is displayed and how users ca interact with it. All fields have descriptions related to their uses.
Add Your Section & Password Form
The last step in this tutorial is to add the protect section to your Divi website. We have given you two ways of doing this.
- You can use our Divi Protect Module and select your protected section.
- Alternative, use the Divi Code Module. To do this, place a code module in the position where you would like to place your protected content and form. Then enter in the unique shortcode that you have created. For example,
[test_section_shortcode]is a legitimate shortcode.
