The Divi PHP Code Module lets you easily add PHP code anywhere in your Divi Builder pages. One of the many things you can do with it is execute and display the results of SQL statements.
Here's an simple example. Suppose you want to display the titles of your 5 latest posts in a list. In that case, you can add the following code in to a Divi PHP Code Module:
global $wpdb;
// SQL query to fetch latest 5 posts
$query = "SELECT post_title, post_date FROM {$wpdb->posts} WHERE post_type = 'post' AND post_status = 'publish' ORDER BY post_date DESC LIMIT 5";
// Execute the query
$results = $wpdb->get_results($query);
// Display the post titles, if any, as a list
if (!empty($results)) {
echo '<ul>';
foreach ($results as $post) {
echo '<li>' . esc_html($post->post_title) . '</li>';
}
echo '</ul>';
} else {
echo 'No posts found.';
}Like so:
Then save the module and page, and when you view the site on the front-end you should see the results, like so:
Of course, this is just a basic example for demonstration, but there is no limit to what data you pull from the database, how you process it and how you display it.
We've used the $wpdb object here as it provides a clean way to interact with the database via SQL, but you can also use PHP's raw SQL functions should you need to.
