by | Aug 14, 2025 | Divi Tutorials | 0 comments

If you’ve ever felt like your online store blends in with the crowd, you’re not alone. Most store owners want a unique, branded shopping experience as well as the professional features shoppers expect. But blending the fab with the functional is no easy task.

That’s where Divi and WooCommerce truly excel together. Divi gives you total control over design and layout, while WooCommerce powers the store behind the scenes. This nifty combo lets you build a store that looks and works exactly how you want, on a code-free basis. 

Our guide will show you how to create custom WooCommerce templates with Divi, use Divi’s native modules to improve your store, add advanced features with plugins, simplify setup with child themes, and unlock tomorrow’s world with Divi WooCommerce Pro.

Key takeaways

  • Custom WooCommerce templates in Divi let you create a store that truly reflects your brand, not just another generic shop.
  • Divi’s WooCommerce modules make it easy to build product, cart, and checkout pages visually, without coding.
  • Advanced features like slide-out carts and mega menus help keep shoppers engaged, directly impacting conversion rates.
  • Using a WooCommerce-focused child theme saves hours of manual work and ensures your customizations stay safe during theme updates.
  • For a complete solution, Divi WooCommerce Pro combines all these techniques into one cohesive package, making professional eCommerce design accessible for every store owner.

How to replace native WooCommerce templates with custom-built templates

A custom WooCommerce template is a user-designed layout that replaces the default WooCommerce page structure. Divi and WooCommerce allow you to customize every part of your store’s shopping experience, so this naturally includes templates. 

While WooCommerce’s default templates for product, cart, and checkout pages are functional, they’re quite generic. But with Divi, you don’t have to settle for beige! You can use the Divi Builder to edit the layout and add modules – like images, text, buttons, and fantastic sliders – directly to your WooCommerce pages. This means you can match your store’s look to your brand without touching a line of code.

Most designers prefer to go further and replace the default WooCommerce templates entirely. Custom templates built in Divi allow you to control colors, fonts, and layouts, and unlock advanced modules like sliders and interactive grids that aren’t available in the WooCommerce defaults. You can create unique templates for your product pages, shop archives, cart, and checkout, making your store stand out from the ordinary.

The Divi Theme Builder is your go-to tool for this operation. Here’s how to create a custom WooCommerce template:

Accessing Divi Theme Builder

1. In your WordPress dashboard, go to Divi > Theme Builder.

Adding new template to customize

2. Select Add New Template and select the WooCommerce page you want to customize (e.g. All Products, Cart, Checkout).

3. Select the pencil icon next to Custom Body to open the builder.

4. Use the Divi Builder to design your template with Divi’s WooCommerce modules. Drag in product images, titles, prices, descriptions, and more. The Checkout snippet below combines a Post Title with the Woo Checkout Billing, Woo Checkout Shipping, and Woo Checkout Information modules:

5. Save your template. Divi will automatically assign it to the selected WooCommerce page.

How to extend your WooCommerce templates with Divi WooCommerce modules

A Divi WooCommerce module is a visual element that displays WooCommerce data within Divi layouts. Divi’s built-in modules are engineered to display and style WooCommerce content, letting you create a consistent, branded experience across your entire site. 

Instead of wrestling with external CSS or template files, you can drag and drop WooCommerce elements right where you want them, saving time and ensuring every page matches your brand vision.

Here are some of the most useful native Divi WooCommerce modules. To access these, simply type their name into the module search bar. Select your relevant Woo module, and you’re good to go. Here are some of the most useful native Divi WooCommerce modules.

  • Woo Products (shop): Display a grid of products anywhere. Great for featured, on-sale, or category-specific collections.

Woo Products module

  • WooCommerce Product Gallery: Showcase product images with full design control, including sliders and lightbox effects.
  • WooCommerce Product Price: Place the product price anywhere and style it to match your branding.
  • WooCommerce Cross-Sells: Highlight related or complementary products on the cart page to increase average order value.
  • WooCommerce Product Add To Cart: Add a customizable Add to Cart button with quantity selector, stock info, and product options, anywhere on your product or shop pages.

Woo Product Add to Cart module

  • WooCommerce Cart Totals: Display the cart’s total price. Perfect for custom cart or checkout layouts.

Woo Cart Totals module

  • WooCommerce Checkout Payment & Checkout Shipping: Insert payment and shipping sections into your custom checkout templates.

For example, on a custom product page, you might use:

Left Column Right Column
Woo Product Images Woo Product Title
  Woo Product Price
  Woo Product Description
  Woo Product Add To Cart

Which results in a fully customizable layout like the following:

On the frontend, these modules pull dynamic WooCommerce data, so your product images, titles, prices, and buttons always stay up to date. You can style each module using Divi’s visual controls, so your store looks polished and professional from shop page to checkout.

Adding advanced functionality to your WooCommerce store with third-party options

Native Divi WooCommerce modules cover most store needs, but advanced shops often require extra features to boost conversions and user experience. That’s where third-party solutions from Divi Life step in, filling the gaps left by default tools.

Divi Side Cart example

Divi Side Cart is a mega addition for reducing cart abandonment. It keeps your cart visible and accessible as a slide-out panel. Shoppers can review their items, adjust quantities, and head to checkout without leaving the page. This experience encourages more completed purchases, and the cart can be fully styled to match your brand.

Divi Cart Module plugin

What’s more, our Divi Cart Module lets you place a live cart summary – showing item count and total – anywhere on your site. You can add it to your header, sidebar, or even inside a mega menu. It’s highly customizable, so your cart display always fits your design, and it pairs perfectly with the Side Cart for a great user experience.

Divi Mega Pro plugin

Divi plugins not built solely for eCommerce can also supercharge your store. Take Divi Mega Pro for starters! With this in your toolkit, you can:

  • Add mini-carts in dropdown mega menus, letting customers check their cart from any page.

  • Showcase featured or new products directly in your navigation, making promotions impossible to miss.

Why using a WooCommerce Divi Child Theme is the easiest way to build a WooCommerce shop with Divi

A WooCommerce Divi child theme is a secondary theme that inherits Divi’s features and adds custom WooCommerce templates. It’s the shortcut to a professional, fully customized shop, without the risk of losing your work during theme updates. 

Child themes inherit all the power and flexibility of Divi, but let you safely add your own customizations. For WooCommerce stores, this means you get pre-built templates for product, shop, cart, and checkout pages, saving you dozens of hours compared to building from scratch.

Many child themes come loaded with specialized WooCommerce modules and features designed for online selling. They address common integration headaches – like styling checkout fields or displaying dynamic product info – so you don’t have to troubleshoot every detail yourself. You start with a solid, eCommerce-ready foundation, then tweak layouts, colors, and branding to fit your store’s identity while keeping WooCommerce running smoothly.

Installing and configuring a WooCommerce-focused child theme takes minutes, not days or weeks! Instead of wrestling with templates and code, you’re free to focus on launching a beautiful, functional store that’s ready for customers from day one.
