    Hello all! I'm a newbie and just learning how to work with Divi. My current website isn't working and so I'm in a rush to get something going and up... I have an IT guy who will help with uploading Divi to the old site, but doesn't do any design, so I'm scrambling. Thanks for the help!

    First, I need to create a page with probably 18 or more photos to be clicked and directed to individual pages (6 images per line). What's the best way to achieve this, and be able to add more titles and photos (alphabetically) in the future? I've tried adding multiple new rows of 6, but those won't work for adjusting in the future...and I tried adding a gallery, but I'm not sure that's right either... Any suggestions coming to mind?

    Second... I'm trying to figure out the best way to create a page template/layout in Divi to transfer and update multiple pages in the old site. I'm currently building in a dummy site until I'm ready to transfer everything and go live...I've saved pages to the library, but should I be building a theme for this instead?

    So, for instance, I have lots of blog pages on the old site...what's the best way to create a page in Divi 4.0 and save it in order to import into the old site and change/export the layout to affect and update all of the old blogs with the new layout, while retaining the old content, pics, links, etc?

    I want to make sure I'm not doing the wrong thing. Thank you sooooo much!! Best, Tia

    Gallery module will just popup the photos. Perhaps you might want to look at the Projects custom post types in WP Admin. You can display the Projects by using the portfolio module. It has slider style & grid style. Though, I don't think you can make it 6 columns.
    If you're using Divi 4.0, then you can use the new Theme Builder to create a template for all your posts. Once you created a template for that, it will apply the design to all your posts, while retaining the old content.
