The Divi Hotspot Module for Divi Builder is a versatile tool that allows you to create interactive images on your Divi website. By adding hotspots (clickable or hoverable points) to an image, you can enhance user engagement by revealing additional information, such as text, images, or links, when users interact with these hotspots.

Design
Design tab of the Hotspot Module.
Spot
You can adjust the size, color, and shape of the spot to ensure it stands out and is easily noticeable by users. Additionally, you can add effects like shadows or borders to make the spot more prominent. This customization helps in creating a visual cue that effectively grabs attention and guides users to interact with the hotspot.
Spot Text
The “Spot Text” design settings control the styling of any text associated with the hotspot marker itself, such as labels or tooltips that appear directly next to the spot. You can modify the font type, size, color, and alignment to match the overall design of your site. Ensuring that the text is readable and visually appealing is important for maintaining user engagement and effectively conveying the intended message.
Tooltip Media
The “Tooltip Media” design options let you style the media content (like images or videos) that appears within the tooltip when the hotspot is activated. You can adjust the size, borders, and spacing of the media to make it visually cohesive with the rest of your content. Proper styling of tooltip media helps enhance the user experience by making the additional information more engaging and easier to interact with.
Tooltip Texts
The “Tooltip Texts” settings provide options to customize the text that appears within the tooltip when a user hovers over or clicks the hotspot. You can adjust the font, size, color, and line height to ensure the text is clear and fits well within the tooltip’s design. These settings are crucial for readability and ensuring that the information provided in the tooltip is easily accessible and visually appealing.
Tooltip Button
The “Tooltip Button” design options allow you to customize any buttons included in the tooltip, such as a call-to-action or a link button. You can modify the button’s color, size, border, and text to ensure it stands out within the tooltip and encourages user interaction. Styling the button properly is important for guiding users towards taking action, whether it’s to learn more, make a purchase, or navigate to another page.
