If you’re running a physical store and creating a website for it, many people may visit your website to get practical information, such as your address. Of course, that’s where your contact page comes in handy, but that’s not the only way you can seamlessly share contact details with your visitors. If you’re looking for a creative way to approach sharing your company’s address, you’ll like this tutorial. We’re showing you how to add a fixed map toggle dynamically to each page using Divi’s Theme Builder. We’ll start by creating a new page template. Then, we’ll include the dynamic page content in side the template’s body and we’ll add a fixed map toggle on top of the dynamic page content. You’ll be able to download the template JSON file for free as well!

Let’s get to it.

1. Create Page Template Inside Divi Theme Builder

We’ll start this tutorial by navigating to the Divi Theme Builder and adding a new page template.

Enter Body Area of Template

Then, enter the template’s body by selecting “Build Custom Body”.

2. Add Dynamic Page Content to Body Area

Bottom Padding: 0px

Add Row #1

Continue by adding a new row using the following column structure:

Without adding modules yet, open the row settings and modify the sizing settings as follows:

Width: 100%
Max Width: 100%

Spacing

Remove all default top and bottom padding next.

Top Padding: 0px
Bottom Padding: 0px

Add Post Content Module to Column

To allow each page’s content to show up dynamically, we’ll use the Post Content Module inside this row.

3. Create Fixed Map Pin Design

Add Row #2 to Section

Column Structure

On to the next row, which uses the following column structure:

Sizing

Open the row settings, go to the design tab and change the sizing settings as follows:

Upload a background image of your choice next. You can find the background image in the zipped folder which you can download at the beginning of this tutorial.

Main Element CSS

Add the following lines of CSS code to the column’s main element as well:

width: 80% !important;
max-height: 80vh;

Visibility

Then, put the vertical overflow to auto. This, in combination with the max height in the previous step, makes sure a scrollbar appears as soon as the column exceeds an 80vh height.

Vertical Overflow: Auto

Column 2 Settings

Main Element CSS

Open the column 2 settings next and apply the following line of CSS code to the main element:

width: 12% !important;

Move on to the module’s design tab and change the sizing settings as follows:

Width: 88%
Module Alignment: Center

Spacing

Remove the default bottom margin next.

Bottom Margin: 0px

Add Blurb Module to Column 1

On to column 2. There, we’ll add a Blurb Module without content.

Select an icon next.

Then, change the background color.

Background Color: #0045ff

Image/Icon Settings

Move on to the design tab and style the icon settings accordingly:

Box Shadow

Include a box shadow as well.

Box Shadow Horizontal Position: 6px

Main Element & Blurb Image CSS

Then, navigate to the advanced tab and use the following lines of CSS code for the main element:

And add this line of CSS code inside the Blurb Image box:

margin-bottom: 0;

4. Add Toggle Functionality

Add CSS Class to Row #2

Now that we have all elements in place, it’s time to focus on functionality. Start by opening the second row and applying the following CSS class:

CSS Class: map-toggle-row

Add CSS Class to Blurb Module in Column 2

Open the Blurb Module in column 2 next and use the following CSS class:

CSS Class: map-toggle

Add Code Module Below Blurb Module in Column 2

Then, add a Code Module below the Blurb Module in column 2.

Add Style & Script Tags

Place some style and script tags inside the code box.

Insert CSS Code

We’re using the following CSS code inside the style tags:

.map-toggle-row {
-webkit-transition: .1s ease-in-out;
-moz-transition: .1s ease-in-out;
-o-transition: .1s ease-in-out;
transition: .1s ease-in-out;
}

.reveal-map{
left: 0 !important;
}

.map-toggle {
cursor: pointer;
}

Insert JQuery Code

And the following JQuery code inside the script tags:

jQuery(function($){
$(document).ready(function(){

var toggleIcon = $(‘.map-toggle’);
var toggleRow = $(‘.map-toggle-row’);

toggleIcon.click(function(){
toggleRow.toggleClass(‘reveal-map’);
});

});
});

Add Fixed Position with Horizontal Offset to Row #2

Last but not least, we’ll need to modify the second row’s position settings accordingly:

Position: Fixed
Location: Left Center
Horizontal Offset:

Desktop: -500px
Tablet & Phone: -72%

Z Index: 11
