This toolbar is utilized by Divi for a couple of important steps, which you’ll learn about shortly.
Slider Revolution Modules and Divi Modules
A quick heads up before we move forward: Both Slider Revolution and Divi use the term “module” for chunks of content, so you’re pretty much going to be adding Slider Revolution modules [?]
A module in Slider Revolution acts as a container for slides, which in turn act as containers for layers. Modules are created and edited with the module editor.
A "module" is a single, self contained piece of content. You can think of this as being similar to the way a post or page in regular WordPress is a self contained piece of content.
A module can represent any kind of content Slider Revolution is capable of creating, such as a slider, carousel, hero unit, navigation menu, posts display and so on.
Multiple modules can be combined to form rich content such as complete sites and landing pages. inside Divi modules.
This might seem odd at first, but it actually all works out to be quite straight forward in practice. Just follow along and we’ll step you through everything you need to know.
Basic Page Setup
Start by creating a new page with any title you like, and once you’re in the regular WordPress page editor click the purple button labeled Use Divi Builder:
![](https://www.sliderrevolution.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/usedivi.jpg)
Three methods of page creation will be offered. Select the “Build from Scratch” option by clicking the blue Start Building button:
![](https://www.sliderrevolution.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/startbuilding.jpg)
From the Insert Row dialogue box that appears, click the first layout option – this one will generate a single row with a single column inside it:
![](https://www.sliderrevolution.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/newrow.jpg)
Adding Slider Revolution Content
After inserting a row, an Insert Module dialogue box will automatically appear. In the search field at the top of that box, start typing “Slider Revolution”. After you type a few characters, you will see a Slider Revolution item appear below. Click the item to insert it:
![](https://www.sliderrevolution.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/sliderrevolutionitem.jpg)
Another new dialogue box will now appear containing the settings you’ll use to insert and configure your Slider Revolution content:
![](https://www.sliderrevolution.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/srsettingsbox.jpg)
In that box click the purple Select Module button so you can choose the slider, carousel or scene you want to use:
![](https://www.sliderrevolution.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/selectmodule-1.jpg)
The Slider Revolution module selection window will open. Click the item of your choice in order to select it:

![](https://www.sliderrevolution.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/menuexpandbutton.jpg)

![](https://www.sliderrevolution.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/savedraft.jpg)
From here the easiest way to see how the page looks live is to click the Exit Visual Builder button in the WordPress toolbar:

When you’re done with the preview click the Enable Visual Editor button in the toolbar to switch back into Divi:

Additional Buttons in the Settings Box

![](https://www.sliderrevolution.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/modulesettings.jpg)
As well as the Select Module button we used earlier, and which can be clicked again if you need to swap in new content, there are three additional buttons in the settings box:

Click the Optimize File Sizes button to launch the file size optimizer window and compress your module’s files into their most efficient form:
![](https://www.sliderrevolution.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/optimizefilesizes.jpg)
You can read more about what this tool does in our article on the File Size Optimizer.
Applying the Blank Page Template
You can use the “Slider Revolution Blank Template” to hide the default elements of your theme, so the only visible elements on the page are the Divi modules you add.
You can read more about this in our guide Hide Theme Elements via Blank Page Template.
To apply the “Slider Revolution Blank Template” click the Edit Page button in the top toolbar:
![](https://www.sliderrevolution.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/editpage.jpg)
Once in the regular page editor you can select the blank page template as you would normally:
![](https://www.sliderrevolution.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/chooseblanktemplate.jpg)
Then when you preview your page you’ll see it without the default header and footer elements:

Hello!
How can I place the slider under a transparent header?
Hi Gabriel,
Thanks for your message. Yes, you can place the Slider Revolution slider under your Website’s transparent header. If you’ve trouble getting this to work, please open a support ticket here https://support.sliderrevolution.com/ and we’ll check your Website setup and guide you further to achieve what you needed there.
Thanks!

Go to divi theme builder, then go to global header template.
Now you just need to go to section settings and find “position” in the “desing” tab. Then change “relative” for “absolute” and then make your header section transparent.
Save it and now you have a transparent header over the first section of any page.
It seems like there is an error with Divi and slider revolution.
In the Slider revolution settings, i cant selecet current module, and the grafics for “edit”, “Tune” and “flash_on” is only text.
In profile i’ve already checked off “Show Toolbar when viewing site”
