Here you find the answers to the most common questions and problems.
How to add a module to your page
To add custom Divi modules to your page, you currently must use the backend builder. Due to limited support from Elegant Themes, third party modules do not work in the visual builder. Elegant Themes announced better third party support for Divi 3.1 but has not announced a release date yet. Once available, we will update our modules as soon as possible.
The difference between the Hover Animation and Hover Elevation setting
The Material Blurb for Divi module offers you two different kinds of animations when hovering over the module.
Elevation
Elevation is used to “lift up” the blurb so that it appears to be closer to the viewer. The drop shadow will be increased in size and look softer. Use the Elevation, Use Hover Elevation and Hover Elevation settings to cofigure this behavior.
Animation
Animation is used to move the blurb around. You can for example move the blurb up, down to the left or to the right.
How to fix clipped shadows
If the shadows of Material Blurb for Divi are being clipped at either side or the bottom of the blurb, you should check if the Row which contains the blurbs has the overflow: hidden; property set.
To fix it, simply add overflow: visible !important; to the rows Main Element in the Advanced settings of that row.
Another solution is to set a custom margin on the blurbs or to set a custom padding on the columns of the row.
How to equalize blurb heights
Equalizing the heights of multiple blurbs in one row requires some CSS hacking. Fortunately, Material Blurb for Divi has custom CSS fields for every element, so you don’t need to touch your themes or pages CSS. Everything can be done directly in the module. So heres how you can equalize the height:
The first step is to activate the Equalize Column Heights setting of the Page Builder Row which will contain your Material Blurbs. Then switch to the advanced tab of the Row Module Settings and add display: flex; to each Column Main Element.
The second step is to make the Material Blurbs use flexes as well. First add display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex: 1; to the main element. This will already cause the blurbs to fill the available space. However, the text as well as the buttons are still only filling as much space as they need, causing the blurbs with less content to have empty space at the bottom.
It is now up to you how you want your blurbs to look like. If you want the button to be positioned at the bottom of the blurb, you can add display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex: 1; to the Material Blurb Container, Material Blurb Text Container and Material Blurb Text Content as well as flex: 1; to Material Blurb Text Body.
Another styling option we like is centering the text and button. You can achieve that by adding display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex: 1; to the Material Blurb Container as well as display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex: 1; justify-content: center; to the Material Blurb Text Container.
CSS flex property is very powerful and we thought the elements of Material Blurb for Divi very well through so you have a lot of freedom. To learn more about the possibilities, we recommend these tutorials:

How to move the CTA between the Image and the Text?
To achieve a look as in the example above, where the call to action is positioned above the text, all you have to do is to tweak the CSS of the blurb a little bit. First, make the text container position relative and add a top margin to the text content to make room for the button.
Then position the button container absolute.
The actual numbers can vary depending on the configuration of your button. Depending on the buttons content you might need to play with the top positioning.

Help: I have HTML in my Blurb body
Due to a bug in an older Divi version (somewhere around 3.0.7x), Divi wrote the HTML of the rendered Blurb into the the WYSIWYG Body field. Since 1.8.5, the WYSIWYG Body field is activated by default and in 1.10, the old, single line Body field will be removed. In the meantime, the content of both Body fields will be rendered in the Blurb. If you see HTML in the content, simply open your Blurb and remove the text from the WYSIWYG Body field. If you still use the old single line Body field, move your text to the new WYSIWYG field.
