Two New Plugins for Divi 5 from Elicus: Divi Motion Extended and Divi Events Extended

Elicus has released two new plugins for Divi 5 under our Divi Extended brand: Divi Motion Extended and Divi Events Extended. Both are available on diviextended.com and are now approved and listed on the Elegant Themes Marketplace.

One adds motion that responds to scrolling and the cursor. The other gives Divi 5 sites a complete way to publish events. Here is what each one does, and where to get them.

Why we built them

Divi 5 rebuilt how modules work, and with it we have been building a new set of Divi Extended plugins made for Divi 5 from the first line of code. Two gaps stood out when we looked at what Divi 5 sites still put together by hand: scroll and cursor animation that goes beyond fades and slides, and event listings that need more than a page per event.

We built one plugin for each.

Divi Motion Extended

Divi Motion Extended adds five modules and two extensions to the Divi 5 builder:

• Text Reveal: reveals a heading or paragraph by character, word or line, on scroll, on page load or on hover.
• Image Reveal: shows an image as visitors hover each row of a list.
• Scroll Stack Cards: cards that stack on top of each other as the page scrolls.
• Spotlight Cards: a light that follows the cursor across a grid of cards.
• Parallax Cards: card columns that move at different speeds as visitors scroll.
• Image Trail and Cursor Hover Effect: an image trail for sections, rows and columns, and a custom cursor that can be added to any module.

The animations run on GSAP, which ships inside the plugin and is served from your own site rather than a third-party CDN. Each effect loads its script only on pages where it is used.

Divi Events Extended

Divi Events Extended is a set of eleven modules for building event pages in Divi 5:

• An events calendar with month, week, day and agenda views.
• An events feed as a card grid, list or compact list, with page numbers, a load more button or infinite scroll.
• A filter bar that narrows a feed or calendar by category, venue, organizer, price, date and more.
• An event countdown, add to calendar links for Google Calendar, Outlook and .ics files, a register button and related events.
• Single fields for the date and time, venue, organizer and status, for designing your own event layouts.

Events can come from the plugin's own event type, which handles venues, organizers and repeating events, or from The Events Calendar if a site already runs it. The two sources can work side by side. On activation, the plugin also provides templates for single events, venues and organizers and their archives, so a new events section has a working layout from day one.

Pricing and where to get them

Both plugins need Divi 5 and work on unlimited websites.

• Divi Motion Extended: $29 a year or $99 for lifetime access on diviextended.com, and $29 on the Elegant Themes Marketplace.
• Divi Events Extended: $49 a year or $119 for lifetime access on diviextended.com, and $49 on the Elegant Themes Marketplace.
