Choosing this setting will place your navigation on the left-hand side of your page as in the examples below, this will provide different users to make their site as per their design preference.

Many WordPress users like to place their site logo in the center instead of traditional left side. Divi 2.0 provides you the option to change the placement of your logo easily.
Central placement of logo is great for larger logos and primary navigation that has a lot of menu items.

Divi’s header options makes it real easy for the users to customize the header section of your site quite effectively. It allows you to choose the color of your header, the placement of your logo, add an accent bar for social and contact information, and even choose between horizontal and vertical navigation.
Also, Divi 2.0 has also introduced a new secondary navigation location.
Divi Drag and Drop Page Builder
The Divi Page Builder is amazing for newbie users, it helps you to create a page instantly with drag and drop interface. The module is even more amazing now with some important improvements, including the ability to duplicate a module, row, or section, and an all new Specialty Section that introduces 9 new column structures.

I just checked this theme and there is no doubt that it has impressive layouts and features. Its just like a theme that can be used for both personal and business blogging.

How do you choose center logo position I can’t see that in the theme options.
I also can’t nest shortcodes inside of shortcodes like using the Divi Box shortcode and putting another shortcode inside it like a data list.
Thanks.
I’ve used Divi since it came out. I’ve created a number of commercial sites with it and I have seamlessly upgraded to Divi2. I can’t say enough good things about this theme. The only issue I have (and it’s a small one) is that they haven’t done specific integration for BuddyPress. Other than that, there is no WordPress theme that I would rate higher.
Thanks for your comment
