Many thumbs down here, once again Off topic, by more than one. I thought we were moving on from this type of exchange??

OP I think we all agree that diapers are not a great substitute for training, as explained in varying different ways from by each poster. Whichever way you decide will be the best way for you to train your pup.

Perhaps you could try the pads in a smaller pen or bigger crate, because this has been proven to be a successs for many others. Not a guarantee but a good first option. Also, many here have talked about the "Puppy Apartment" as an excellent tool as it has a divider and for some reason has a high success rate.

I did the xpen but made it smaller and my pups are both trained for peepads only, this works for my lifestyle, may not work for yours. I wish you luck! Keep us posted!
