Blog, Divi Tutorial | 16 comments

In this article I will share how to create Flip Cards in Divi using a free plugin.

The plugin we will be using is Flip Cards Module for Divi. It is a free plugin which is available for download from the WordPress plugin directory.

The first step is to install the plugin on your website. If you are not sure how to install a plugin then you can read this article how to install a WordPress plugin.

Here is a preview of how the flip cards will look by the end.

Adding Flip Card Module on a Page

Once you have successfully installed the plugin on your website the Flip Cards module should appear in your Divi Builder. If you had the page already open before you installed the plugin then you will have to refresh it.

If you are having trouble finding it in the list of modules then you can use the search bar to find it.

Adding Content to the Flip Cards

The content for the flip cards can be set inside the Flip Cards Settings > Content > Content toggle.

There are two tabs in the toggle. The first one is for the front flip card and the second one is for the back flip card.

Secondly we will apply a Box Shadow to Flip Card. Choose the last style in the first Row. It should look good with the default settings.

Duplicate Flip Card

We have styled one Flip Card so far. Now we can duplicate it to create the other three. You can duplicate the flip card by using the duplicate icon.

Flip card module duplicate

All the settings in the duplicate flip cards will be the same except the Front Icon Color, Button Text Color, Back Background Color and Flip Animation.

I am not going to share the steps one by one. You can duplicate the module three times and then refer to the images and instructions above if you have trouble finding an option.

The icon, button text and background colors all have the same value. You just have to update them in each flip card.

You can set the Flip Cards with the following color.

  • Flip Card 2: #4fbcd1
  • Flip Card 3: #9478bb
  • Flip Card 4: #da7849

Next we just have to update the animation for each Flip Card in Design Tab > Flip Animation > Flip Animation.

  • Flip Card 2 Animation: Down
  • Flip Card 3 Animation: Left
  • Flip Card 4 Animation: Right

    I’d like all my cards to be the same height. No matter what I do I can’t get them to work that way.

      Hi Brian,

      Please open a ticket in the support forum for any questions related to a specific plugin. The height of the plugins is calculated dynamically so that the front card on each module can be the same as the back card.

      You can follow the steps mentioned in the following ticket to make all flip cards a fixed size.

    Hi,

    Borders don’t appear to work – unless I’m doing something wrong of course!
    I add a border with and colour and nothing happens.

    Thanks

    Can I add a background image to the front side of the card?

    Somehow there is padding being added on the back card above and below title. Also looks like there is an empty between the back title and body. The spacing makes it look horrible and unusable for me.

    I downloaded this plugin and installed the zip file, but whenever I try to add a flip card module in the Divi Builder, it just hangs it up, constantly showing a white cloudy background and never actually loading the module.
    I am using the latest version of both WP and DIVI.
    Any suggestions on how to fix this are welcome.
    Thanks.
