Migrating to Divi 5

WP-ImmoMakler supports both Divi 4 and Divi 5. The plugin automatically detects which Divi version is active and provides the appropriate modules. No configuration is required on your part.

Automatic detection

On a website with Divi 4, WP-ImmoMakler loads the classic Divi 4 modules. On a website with the active Divi 5 engine, WP-ImmoMakler instead loads the new, native Divi 5 modules for the supported module types. There is no switch or setting — the selection happens automatically based on the active Divi version.

Which modules are natively available for Divi 5

All WP-ImmoMakler modules are available as native Divi 5 modules: the 1-Click list and detail view, image gallery, property data, area and price lists, key detail boxes and icon list, description text, energy certificate values, downloads and links, contact details, contact form, contact person photo, location map, videos, Cancellation Button, and Cancellation Form — plus, with WP-ImmoMakler Plus PLUS, the energy certificate chart, the virtual tour, the search form, the map property list, the Propstack newsletter sign-up, and the Propstack search profile form.

Three Divi 4 modules have a different name in Divi 5:

Divi 4	Divi 5	What the Migrator carries over
WP-ImmoMakler data table	WP-ImmoMakler Property data	The selected fields, the headline with its HTML tag, the label, the row lines with their colour, the column width, the alternating row background colours (Design tab, Rows), the inner spacing (Cells), the bold type of the label (Name), the text alignment of the values (Value), and the font, outer and inner spacing of the headline (Heading and Heading spacing)
WP-ImmoMakler Data boxes	WP-ImmoMakler Key detail boxes	The selected fields, the grid with minimum width and spacing (Display option Grid (automatic columns)), the arrangement inside the box, icons with size and colour, the font of label and value, background colour, inner spacing and border of the boxes, and the border and shadow of the whole module. Not carried over are a custom Divi icon (Divi 5 shows the WP-ImmoMakler icons), icon spacing and alignment, the shadow, and a background gradient or image of the individual boxes
WP-ImmoMakler Energy certificate	WP-ImmoMakler Energy certificate values	The same as for the data table. The Show diagram option is switched on, so the energy certificate scale PLUS still appears below the values as before

The Divi 4 modules Area list, Price list, Amenities/Features, Downloads and links, Contact person photo, Contact form, Location map, Key data icon list, Location, Property result list, Search form and Map property list have the same name in Divi 5. The Migrator carries over all of their settings: for the area and price lists the same ones as for the data table, for Downloads and links the selected icons as well, and for the two maps all map settings. A Button module that links to the PDF exposé through the dynamic content Link to the PDF print view keeps the link in Divi 5 too.

Existing layouts on migration

When switching from Divi 4 to Divi 5, your existing layouts are preserved:

For every module with a native counterpart, the Divi 5 Migrator automatically converts existing instances to the native Divi 5 module. The existing settings (e.g. map height or the show/hide toggles of the detail view) are retained.
