Build Divi Pages With Heavy Media, Serve Them From the Cloud Instead
Divi makes it easy to fill a page with hero images, galleries, sliders, and background video, and just as easy to fill your hosting plan doing it. Infinite Uploads offloads and optimizes every image, and streams self-hosted video through Video Cloud so design never outgrows the server.

Divi and Infinite Uploads: Design Freedom Without the Storage Bill
A Divi build lives on media. Hero images in the Slider module, galleries, product shots, background video behind a Row or Section, a Video Slider showcasing a portfolio: every one of those files lands on your server and stays there, full size, forever. The heavier the design, the harder Core Web Vitals gets to pass.
Infinite Uploads offloads everything Divi places to cloud storage and a global CDN, converting images to AVIF and WebP and right-sizing them automatically. Background video and Video module uploads move to Video Cloud, included on every plan, encoding for adaptive streaming so self-hosted video plays smoothly instead of stalling shared hosting. Selecting media happens inside Divi's media modal, folders included.
Divi keeps doing what it does: the Visual Builder, Theme Builder templates, Divi Library layouts, and every module render exactly the same. Infinite Uploads only changes where the files live and how fast they arrive. This page is proof: it's built with Divi and served from the Infinite Uploads cloud.
Four Problems Infinite Uploads Solves for a Divi Site
Most offload plugins move files and stop. Here's what matters when the files are your page design.
Background Video and Video Sliders That Don't Stall on Shared Hosting
A background video behind a Section or Row, a Video module upload, or a full Video Slider all stream through Video Cloud instead of your origin server. It encodes for adaptive streaming and plays in a brandable player, so a heavy autoplay background doesn't choke shared hosting.
Layout Packs and Divi Library Imports, Organized Instead of Buried
Importing a Divi Library JSON layout or a third-party layout pack pulls its demo images straight into your Media Library, often hundreds at once. Media Folders, sort, and search keep that pack separated from your real content instead of dumped into one long uncategorized list.
Image-Heavy Pages That Actually Pass Core Web Vitals
Every image an Image, Gallery, or Slider module places gets converted to AVIF and WebP, right-sized for the layout, and served from the CDN edge closest to the visitor. The design stays exactly as built; the images just stop being the reason the page fails a speed test.
Free Up Local Storage the Same Day You Sync
Once the first sync finishes, remove the local copies from Infinite Uploads settings and your hosting plan gets its space back immediately. Every image, background video, and layout pack asset keeps loading from the cloud, and one click restores anything if you ever need it local again.
Why Divi Designers Pair It With Infinite Uploads
One Bill Instead of a Video Platform Subscription
Divi has no native cloud storage or CDN, so a media-heavy site either fills the server or pays for Vimeo, Wistia, or S3. Infinite Uploads covers storage, video, and CDN bandwidth on one monthly price, no extra video account required.
Move a Growing Site Without a Rebuild
The first sync moves your existing Media Library, including any background video or Divi Library assets on the server, and rewrites URLs to the CDN. Nothing changes in the Visual Builder, and one click restores files anytime.
Every Client Site on One Account
Agencies running dozens of Divi client sites connect all of them to one Infinite Uploads account. Unlimited sites on every plan, one usage dashboard, and no per-site cloud credentials to hand over when a client relationship ends.

Divi Library and layout pack imports
Imported images land in the Media Library and count toward storage until you delete the ones you don't use.
Review after import
Divi 5 static CSS and dynamic asset cache
Divi writes Critical CSS and cached static files to wp-content/et-cache, not your uploads folder, so offloading never touches it.
Stays local
Up and Running in Three Steps
1. Connect Infinite Uploads
Install the plugin, connect your account, and sync. Existing images, background video, and layout pack files move to the cloud. Divi is unchanged.
2. Add Media the Way You Already Do
Pick images and video from the Divi Builder media modal as usual. Video Cloud picks up any self-hosted video and encodes it for streaming automatically.
3. Free Up Local Storage
Once the sync completes, remove the local copies from Infinite Uploads settings. Your hosting plan gets its space back and every file keeps serving from the CDN.
Good to Know Before You Switch
Video Cloud is on every plan, and video counts toward storage and bandwidth. A background video or Video Slider portfolio adds up fast. Size your plan on total video minutes and check the pricing calculator before moving a media-heavy Divi site. A background video bigger than the WordPress upload limit goes up with our free Big File Uploads plugin.
Divi's own performance features keep working exactly as before. Dynamic Assets, Critical CSS, and static CSS caching all write to wp-content/et-cache, a local folder Infinite Uploads never touches, so page-level caching and offloading run side by side without conflict.
A layout pack import is worth a look before you publish. Third-party Divi layout packs pull every demo image into your Media Library at once, whether you use them all or not. Sort the new folder and delete what the design doesn't need.
How We Tested
- Built a Divi page with an Image module, a Gallery, and a Slider using new uploads.
- Added a self-hosted background video to a Section and a Video module upload.
- Imported a sample Divi Library JSON layout with its own demo images.
- Opened the Divi Builder media modal to confirm folders, sort, and search appeared.
- Confirmed images and video served from the CDN domain on the published page.
Result: everything worked, no configuration needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Infinite Uploads work with the Divi Builder's media modal?
Yes. The folder sidebar, sort, and search all appear inside the Divi Builder's media selection popup, the same as the main Media Library page, whenever you're choosing an image or video for a module.
Can I use background video in Divi without slowing down my site?
Yes. Self-hosted background video in a Section, Row, or Slider module streams through Video Cloud, included on every plan, so it's encoded for adaptive streaming instead of loading straight from your server.
What happens to YouTube or Vimeo videos in the Video module?
Nothing changes. Infinite Uploads doesn't touch embedded video from YouTube or Vimeo on other platforms. Those embeds keep working exactly as they do today, with or without Infinite Uploads installed.
Does this affect Divi 5's Dynamic CSS or Critical CSS?
No. Those features generate and cache static CSS files in wp-content/et-cache, a folder Infinite Uploads never syncs or offloads. Divi's performance system and Infinite Uploads run side by side without any conflict.
Will importing a Divi layout pack fill up my cloud storage?
Its demo images land in your Media Library like any upload and offload the same way. Delete the ones the design doesn't use after import to keep storage tidy.
Does this work with Divi's Theme Builder templates?
Yes. Images and logos used in global headers, footers, and other Theme Builder templates offload and optimize the same way as content on individual site pages.
How much storage does a media-heavy Divi site need?
It depends on how much video you self-host. Image-only sites often fit comfortably in a smaller plan; sites with background video or a Video Slider should size up. Plans run from 50 GB to 10 TB, and the pricing calculator estimates cost.
Can an agency use this across multiple Divi client sites?
Yes. Unlimited sites are included on every plan, and WordPress Multisite is fully supported, so an agency connects every client site to one account and one invoice.
