Divi Protect
This reference is for Divi 5. The same module exists in the Classic Builder. See Divi Protect on Divi 4.
Purpose and when to use
Divi Protect shows one Protect Section on the page. Its Visual Builder label is Divi Protect. Add it from the Divi Protect folder.
The module does not store the password. Create the section, password, and shortcode under Divi Engine → Protect Sections, then select that section here.
Until a section is selected, the builder shows Select a Protect Section. If the section has no layout yet, open it with the Divi Editor and add modules.
Before you configure this module
- Divi Protect is active.
- The Protect Section is saved, with a password and a layout.
Quick setup
- Add Divi Protect.
- Under Module Options, set Select your Protected Section.
- Open Design if you want to style the title, field, error, or button on this page.
- Save the layout and test the page while logged out.
The password field includes a control to show and hide the password.

Form styles from the Protect Section Style tab apply to the shortcode. Module Design styles apply when you use this module.
