New Krafter 2.4 for Divi 5 — The New Presets Will Blow Your Mind!

In this video, I walk you through the latest update to Krafter — my Divi 5 design system — and how it now works seamlessly with the brand-new Divi 5 Preset Manager.

Here’s what’s new inside Krafter:

✅ Light color variants for all headings, custom headings, and body text — instantly design dark layouts without restyling anything. — switch to “light” presets and your UI adapts automatically.

✅ Neutral button presets (light + dark) — perfect for consistent CTA styling in any color scheme. But the real upgrade? The new Divi 5 Preset Manager completely changes how you design.

Inside the video, I show you:

👉 how to use Preview Mode to test presets without committing

👉 how to search your presets instantly

👉 how to rearrange and organise presets for a cleaner workflow

👉 how Krafter taps into these new features to build faster than ever Whether you’re building full websites or designing daily client pages, these improvements make your workflow faster, cleaner, and more predictable.

Mak  Can you also show us how we should be upgrading from a previous version of Krafter to a newer version of Krafter, if we made changes to our colors, fonts, default presets, etc., so we hopefully won't lose our customizations when we upgrade Krafter. I'm very curious as to "how" we should upgrade to a newer version of Krafter. What is the best way to upgrade to use the newer version of Krafter but keep any custom changes we may have made when we used an earlier version of Krafter. Can you explain this to us thoroughly and step by step in a video?? Thanks, Gary

Mak  Also, when you update Krafter (as in this case to v2.4) did you incorporate SiteKrafter Pro (as well as the Starter Template) with Krafter 2.4? Is the newest version of SiteKrafter Pro using Krafter 2.4 or have you not updated SiteKrafter Pro (as of yet), (as well as the Starter Template) to have Krafter 2.4 presets, etc., to be included? Can you explain if and what we need to do when we are using SiteKrafter Pro to make sure it's using the newest Krafter 2.4 presets and settings? Please let us know, because the versions of SiteKrafter Pro and the Starter Template have not changed when Krafter 2.2 or 2.4 were released? So I'm curious what we might need to do to make sure we have the most current Krafter features available to us in these other products. Let us know.

hi Mak - the email said "New Krafter 2.4 for Divi 5 — T... - Mak [Divi Community (FREE)] " is this update free for those who have paid for the the Divi Mastery course like me? if so how do I go about getting access?

Mak .

Cathy Larkin Hi Cathy. Krafter 2.4 is a Design System for Divi 5 which speeds up the design process and ensures consistent professional designs using presets. The course is separate.

Where is the 2.4 version for download for existing members? And yes, wondering like Gary about upgrading to newer versions from the older versions without risk of losing work already done? Thanks!

Mak .

Nancy Mikyska Mikyska here is the link to download version 2.4. I also sent an email out.

Mak,
Please address the question of whether we need to uninstall Krafter each time we want to update to the newest version. I rolled the dice and retained Krafter 2.0 when I updated to 2.2. I have seen no problems so far, but I don't want to push my luck to the point where I regret not doing something.

Also, with Divi Beta 7, where does Krafter interface with the Preset Manager?

Mak .

I will do a video tomorrow about update process, please bear with me 🙂

Mak Please give us the update process video 🧐 my update did override my brand settings. How to avoid this?

Question Mak. Can I use both Krafter 2.4 and the DIVI 5 starter template together on the same websire or just one or the other?

Michael Langham

I followed a link here in the community (I believe) for "StarterTemplatev1.2.zip"
I've also watched the install video for same.

Question: is this uploadable "without" the Krafter Design System?
Budget is a bit tight for the system outlay, but the presets/etc. in the starterTemplate looks like it would be very helpful, especially with the release of presets function added by Divi

Thanks in advance for your reply,

Michael

Forgot to ask/mention that I thought I might have skimmed over a 1.4? update to the starterTemplate. Truth, or hallucination? LOL :)
