DiviMenus Feature Deep-Dive: Every Menu Type Explained (Circular, Horizontal, Vertical, Popups & Flex Sub-Menus)
If your Divi website's navigation is doing nothing but sitting there, you are leaving engagement on the table. Menus are the first thing visitors touch on any site — and on most Divi builds, they are the least-designed element on the page. DiviMenus, a mega-menu module for Divi by DonDivi, exists to change that. But it is not a single "fancy menu" feature. It is a toolbox of menu types — circular menus, horizontal and vertical layouts, popup menus, Flex sub-menus, and menu items that can carry icons, images, or popup triggers — each suited to a different job.
This article walks through every major DiviMenus feature in detail: what it does, when to use it, and what to watch out for. No hype, no invented numbers — just the real feature set so you can decide whether this module deserves a place in your Divi toolkit.

What DiviMenus Actually Is (and Is Not)
DiviMenus is a third-party module that plugs into Divi's Visual Builder. Once activated on your site, it gives you a new menu module with far more layout and content options than Divi's built-in menu module. It requires Divi (the theme or the builder plugin) and is designed to work with Divi's static CSS cache, so your menus do not lose styling when Divi optimizes its stylesheets.
A few honest boundaries before we go further:
- DiviMenus is a menu module, not a page builder. It builds navigation, not full page layouts.
- It does not guarantee any Google ranking, traffic increase, speed score improvement, or revenue. Better menus can improve user experience, but that is a design outcome, not a plugin promise.
- There are separate "On Media" and "Sharing" add-ons for DiviMenus. These are separate products — do not assume they are included with the DiviMenus license from WP Theme Bazar.
- Verify compatibility with your Divi version on a staging site (or a backup you can restore) before using it on a live project.
With that said, let us look at the features one by one.
Circular Menus: Compact, Visual Navigation
The circular menu is the feature that turns the most heads — and it is also the one most people misunderstand. A circular menu arranges your menu items around a central point or arc, which means it occupies a small footprint while still offering several clickable options. Think of a small round "menu" button that expands its items in a fan or ring when clicked or hovered.
When to use it: Circular menus shine in compact layouts — mobile headers, floating action areas, or pages where a full horizontal bar would eat too much screen space. They are excellent for 4–7 items that deserve equal visual weight, such as quick links to services, contact actions, or social profiles.
When not to use it: If you have a deep hierarchy (dozens of items, multiple nesting levels), a circular menu will feel cramped. Accessibility matters too: some visitors find radial navigation harder to scan than a simple list. Use circular menus as an accent, not as your site's only navigation.
The menu items inside a circular menu can carry icons or images rather than plain text labels, which is where the visual design value really comes from — a ring of recognizable icons reads faster than a ring of text labels.
Horizontal & Vertical Menu Layouts
The workhorse layouts are the horizontal and vertical menus. These are your classic navigation bars and sidebars, rebuilt with DiviMenus' extra options.
Horizontal menus are the default choice for desktop headers. DiviMenus lets you build them with the standard look — logo on one side, links on the other — but adds per-item control: icons next to labels, image thumbnails inside menu items, and popup triggers (more on that below).
Vertical menus work for sidebars, footer columns, dashboard-style layouts, and off-canvas style panels. Vertical menus are also the more forgiving layout for long item labels, since you have the full width of the column to play with instead of competing for horizontal space.

The practical value here is consistency: you can build your horizontal desktop header and your vertical mobile/side menu from the same module family, keeping styling and behavior unified instead of mixing three different plugins.
Flex Sub-Menus: Deeper Hierarchies Without the Mess
Standard WordPress sub-menus are rigid — one column, top to bottom, and the moment you have more than a handful of child items, they run off the screen or become unreadable. DiviMenus' Flex sub-menus change the geometry. They use flexible layouts so sub-menu content can be arranged in multiple columns or adaptive grids, which means deeper menu hierarchies stay readable.
When to use it: Mega-menu-style dropdowns for stores, directories, or service businesses with many categories. If your current Divi sub-menu is a mile long, Flex sub-menus are the fix.
When not to use it: Three items do not need a flex grid. Simple sites should stay simple — reach for Flex sub-menus only when the menu content genuinely justifies the structure. Overbuilt navigation confuses visitors just as badly as missing navigation.
Menu Items with Icons, Images, and Popups
This is the feature cluster that turns a menu from a link list into a content element. Each menu item in DiviMenus can be enhanced beyond plain text:
- Icons: Attach an icon to any menu item — a phone icon on "Contact", a cart icon on "Shop", a star on "Featured". Icons speed up recognition and reduce reliance on text alone.
- Images: Menu items can display images, which is powerful for visual menus (think: a menu where each item shows a small service thumbnail). This is how sites build those rich, image-driven mega-menus without custom code.
- Popups: Instead of navigating to a page, a menu item can trigger a popup — a newsletter signup, a callback request form, a special offer. This keeps visitors on the page while capturing the conversion. (Remember the separate "On Media"/"Sharing" add-ons are separate products; confirm what your license covers before planning around a feature.)
The pop-up behavior is particularly useful on landing pages, where you want to collect a lead without sending the visitor to a different URL and breaking their focus.
Show/Hide Elements and Responsive Settings
Two features that save real hours on real projects:
- Show/hide elements: Control which menu items or menu parts appear under which conditions. This lets you build one menu structure and adapt it — for example, hiding certain items on mobile where they do not fit, or showing a call-to-action item only on specific devices.
- Responsive settings: Menus break differently than page content. DiviMenus includes responsive controls so you can tune how the menu behaves on tablet and phone breakpoints — layout, size, spacing, and which layout variant takes over.
The honest note here: responsive menus still need testing. Build the menu, then actually open the site on a real phone and tap through it. Settings get you 90% of the way; the last 10% is real-device checking, and no plugin can do that for you.
Working With Divi's Static CSS Cache
A practical compatibility detail worth highlighting: DiviMenus is built to work with Divi's static CSS cache. Divi's static CSS file generation is a performance feature that compiles builder styles into a static file — some third-party modules conflict with it and either lose styling or force you to disable the cache. DiviMenus accounts for this, which means you keep Divi's CSS optimization working while using the menu module.
That said, "built to work with it" is not the same as "guaranteed on every configuration". After activating DiviMenus and building a menu, clear Divi's static CSS cache once (Divi → Theme Options → Builder → Advanced → Static CSS File Generation) and check the front end. If something looks off, that is what staging sites are for.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does DiviMenus work without the Divi theme? No — it is a module for Divi and requires the Divi theme or Divi Builder plugin with the Visual Builder. It will not work on other themes or page builders. Confirm your Divi version's compatibility on a staging site before deploying to a live project.
Are the "On Media" and "Sharing" add-ons included? No. These are separate add-on products from DonDivi. The DiviMenus license from WP Theme Bazar covers DiviMenus itself; do not plan your build around add-on features unless you have separately confirmed they are included.
Can I build a mobile menu with DiviMenus? Yes — the module includes responsive settings, and the vertical and circular layouts are good candidates for mobile navigation. As with any menu, test on real devices, because responsive settings are a starting point, not a guarantee.
Will DiviMenus slow down my site? Any module adds some weight, but DiviMenus is designed to work with Divi's static CSS cache rather than against it, which helps. Menu performance also depends on how heavy your menus get — image-heavy mega-menus will always cost more than text menus. The plugin itself guarantees no specific speed score.
Can menu items open popups instead of linking to pages? Yes. Menu items can be configured with popup behavior (for example, opening a signup or contact popup) instead of navigating to a URL. This is useful for lead capture on landing pages.
How does activation work at WP Theme Bazar? You order the product and contact the team on WhatsApp. The WP Theme Bazar team activates the original license directly on your site — the private license key is never shared, and activation is usually done within minutes.
The Bottom Line
DiviMenus is a strong pick if your Divi projects need navigation that goes beyond the built-in menu module — image-driven menus, circular or vertical layouts, flexible sub-menus, popup triggers, and responsive control, all inside the Visual Builder. Its weaknesses are the ones it shares with every feature-rich module: do not use the exotic layouts where simple ones would do, test responsive behavior on real devices, and keep expectations honest — no plugin guarantees rankings, traffic, or revenue. For Divi freelancers and agencies in Bangladesh building client sites, it is a legitimate time-saver at a 500৳ price point (regular 4900৳, on sale) — price may change — see the product page for the current price.
