Introduction

You can install Divi on a WordPress site hosted on miHosting free hosting as long as you have a valid Divi license. The service does not include Divi for free, but if you already own it, you can use it like any other compatible WordPress theme.

Before you start

You need:

  1. WordPress already installed.
  2. Access to yourdomain.com/wp-admin.
  3. The Divi .zip file.
  4. An active license.

How to install it

  1. Log in to the WordPress admin area.
  2. Go to Appearance > Themes.
  3. Click Add New.
  4. Choose Upload Theme.
  5. Select the Divi .zip.
  6. Install and activate the theme.

To receive updates

If you want Divi to update directly from WordPress, go to the theme options area and enter your Elegant Themes username and API Key.

Useful tips

  • only use official Divi files
  • create a backup before changing themes
  • keep WordPress, Divi and plugins updated
  • optimize images and modules if the site becomes heavy

Frequently asked questions

Does miHosting provide the Divi license

No. You need your own valid license.

If Divi feels slow, is it always the hosting

No. The main cause is often the weight of the theme, the images, the modules or the plugins in use.

Can I use another premium builder instead

Yes, as long as it is compatible with WordPress and installed correctly.

Conclusion

Divi can be used on free hosting if WordPress is already running and your license is valid. The key is to install it from an official source and keep the site performance under control.
