Strange CLS problem with DIVI

    Hi everyone,

    i am trying to have the best performances for my website right now but i'm having some troubles with CLS. I've been using DIVI for a long time now and never had a so much high CLS like that +1.06. I've tried different things but none them seems to work. The only way i could find to resolve my problem was to duplicate my homepage and erase all modifications of Dimensions and padding, margin on every module. Could you help me with that ?
    Here is my website : https://design-image.re/
    By the way i don't understand why recommandations from pagespeed insights or Gtmetrix are only based on this container :
    <div class="et_builder_inner_content et_pb_gutters3">
    And not on different parts of my homepage.

    Basically, it seems like every modifications i make in the divi builder increase my CLS a lot

    I've also tried to avoid the use of show/don't show for mobile version, set height and width for everything and other things. In fact, it seems like every little changes on margin, padding, or anything like that increase CLS even though i set the right height for every containers, modules, rows and sections... It's quite disappointing

    Sorry for my english but i'm french...

    If you need anything like screenshots or anything else, i'll happily give you that. :)

    HI whirlofdream, did you have any luck with CLS issues? I also find it rather frustrating and wondered if you have had any luck in figuring out why?

    I have this problem too. My client is unhappy with the CLS score and there appears to be an impact on et_builder_inner_content et_pb_gutters3, even when there are no gutters used. I have followed the Divi Help link to the other page:- https://divi.help/threads/header-flicker-showing-original-styling.6217/#post-20032 but this does not help me as there are no visible flickers. It didn't seem to help WhirlofDream either. Divi, do you have any other suggestions?

    Try this:

    Divi > Theme Options > Integration > <head> > paste:


    <style type="text/css">
    .hidden {opacity: 0;}
    </style>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    jQuery('html').addClass('hidden');
    jQuery(document).ready(function() {
    jQuery('html').removeClass('hidden');
    });
    </script>
