Compatibility Add-Ons

LearnDash is built to 「play nice」 with many of the popular themes and plugins available for WordPress. However, there are some instances where a little more is needed in order to improve compatibility between LearnDash and other tools in the WordPress ecosystem.
That is where our Compatibility Add-ons come to the rescue! Simply activate the desired compatibility add-on and you are done. There are no settings to configure!

Multilingual Integration
This add-on allows for greater compatibility between LearnDash and multilingual sites that are using 3rd party plugins for administering the multilingual translations.
This add-on should be activated if you want to use the LearnDash Course Builder and Quiz Builder along with a multilingual set-up. In addition, this add-on should be activated in order to translate URLs (WPML only).
NOTE
This compatibility add-on is not intended for adding or modifying translation files. Please see the Translation User Guide for information on translations.

FAQ
Does this work with every multilingual plugin?

Elementor Integration
See Page Builder User Guide for additional information.
The Elementor integration allows you to easily create dynamic LearnDash content in Elementor, and even works with their global template options.

Certificate Builder Add-On

The LearnDash certificate builder addon gives you the ability to create and design your certificates easily using the built in Gutenberg Builder. Aside from the usual classic editor, you can now use the built in blocks editor when building your certificate making it easier for those who would like to create certificates using a WYSWYG editor.
There will be a few options that we will discuss below.
NOTE
You need to have LearnDash installed & activated before you can activate the 「Certificate Builder」 plugin.
Table of Contents [show]1 Installation2 How It Works2.1 Add A Background2.2 Adding Content2.3 Fonts2.4 Previewing Your Certificate2.5 Was this article helpful to you?
Installation
Option 1: Add-ons Menu (requires an active LearnDash license)

On your WordPress admin area, navigate to LEARNDASH LMS > ADD-ONS
Locate the Certificate Builder add-on
Click Install Now
Click the Activate Plugin button

Option 2: Manual Upload

How It Works
In order to use the block editor, you need to click on the 「Use Certificate Builder」 button on the Certificate Page.
In your WordPress admin area, navigate to LEARNDASH LMS > CERTIFICATES

Click on Add New

Once you are on the Certificate Page, add title to your page.
Click on the Use Certificate Builder button in order to enter the Blocks Editor and you can start creating your certificate

Assuming that you』ve followed the already created and set up your course with quizzes for your users, you can associate the certificate after creating them to be awarded upon completion of the course.
NOTE
If you use it on a working certificate, the content will get replaced with the Gutenberg block. It is recommended to use the builder with a fresh certificate.
Add A Background
The first screen is a media uploader screen, where you need to provide a background image to continue. Do note that it is a requirement to add a background to your certificate in order to proceed with using the certificate builder.

After the background image is uploaded, from here, you can use other Gutenberg blocks to layout the certificate.
Adding Content
Just like any other page or content, you are free to use the Gutenberg editor to create and customize your certificate.
You are free to use any type of Gutenberg blocks, even with dynamic content such as the LearnDash Courseinfo, Usermeta, and Groupinfo. Just look for these blocks from the drop down on your Blocks Editor.

Fonts
You have the option to use custom fonts for the following blocks:

Heading
LearnDash Usermeta
LearnDash CourseInfo
LearnDash Groupinfo

You can find these options on the Block Settings section on the right-hand sidebar of your Editor screen.

You can add custom fonts to be used for the certificates on the Fonts section of your certificates page.

Navigate to LEARNDASH LMS > CERTIFICATES > FONTS

Add a Label to your font.
Click Choose File on the specific style that they belong in
Browse for the file on your computer
Click Save Changes to finish the process

NOTE
Make sure that if you are using the certificates for commercial purposes, you have to acquire the necessary licenses and permissions before using custom fonts.
Once you』re done uploading the fonts, you can go back to the certificate builder and choose the font when building your certificate.
You also still have the option to use different font styling options to your certificates.
Previewing Your Certificate
One other feature of the certificate builder is the ability to preview your certificates in real-time with real information.

On your Certificate Builder, click on Preview
Select Desktop
View your certificate in a PDF format

NOTE
Do note that the previews will need real data when building the certificate, such as the LearnDash Courseinfo. Information about the current user will be pulled when previewing.
Once you』re done, click on Update and associate the certificate that you just created with a course or quiz. You can learn more about certificates on our Certificates documentation.

Achievements Add-On

The LearnDash Achievements add-on gives you the ability to add and display achievement banners following different triggers on your LearnDash site. You will also be able to award points according to the achievements that each user reaches on your site, creating a more engaging and competitive environment for your users.
Using shortcodes, you will also be able to display each user』s individual and group achievements in a leaderboard and place it anywhere on your site.
There will be a few options that we will discuss below.
NOTE
You need to have LearnDash installed & activated before you can activate the 「Achievements」 plugin.

Click the Activate Plugin button

Option 2: Manual Upload

Walkthrough Video
If you』re interested in learning more about gamification with LearnDash and WordPress, along with a walkthrough on how to create, manage, and set up your achievements add-on, watch this webinar replay.

How It Works
In order to set achievements and triggers on your site, you need to first create and set the different achievements and triggers from your WordPress dashboard.
In your WordPress admin area, navigate to LEARNDASH LMS > ACHIEVEMENTS

Click on Add New Achievement

Add a title to your achievement
Add a message to be shown below the main title on the banner

After adding the title and the message, the next step is to complete the details of the achievement, including triggers, points, occurrences, and the image associated with the achievement.
Adding Triggers
A Trigger is an action on the user』s end that would call on the achievement to be awarded and displayed to that user. The achievements add-on comes with a variety of triggers either coming from WordPress itself or LearnDash.

To set the trigger, simply select one from the dropdown.
You will also be required to associate a course, quiz, lesson, topic, etc., depending on the trigger that you have selected.

IMPORTANT
Both the trigger and the associated course, quiz, lesson, topic, etc., can no longer be changed after the achievement has been published.
Awarding Points
Points can also be awarded with every achievement that the user reaches.

NOTE
The points earned for achievements are not connected to the total Earned Course Points. They will be counted against a separate leaderboard that can be displayed by a shortcode or the Gutenberg block, as explained below.
Allow Using Achievement Points to Purchase Courses
Achievement points can also be used by the users to purchase courses.

Once the Achievements add-on is installed, there will be a new tab on the specific course settings page called Achievements. You have to enable the setting to 「Allow to use achievements points to buy this course」 and indicate the course price. The course Access Mode under the Course Access Settings must also be set to 「Buy Now」 for this to take effect.
On the front-end, if the user has enough points to buy the course, they will see an option to redeem their points to get access to the specific course.
Additional Settings for Administrators and Group Leaders
While individual user』s points and achievements can only be viewed by users via the User Achievements and the Achievements Leaderboard shortcodes and/or blocks below, there are additional permissions that are allowed for Administrators and Group Leaders.

Group Leaders are able to see each users』 points by going to the WordPress admin area and navigating to LEARNDASH LMS. From there, Group Leaders will be able to see all the users joined on their group and their achievements and points
Administrators can award extra points to their users when needed by following the steps below

In your WordPress admin area, navigate to USERS> ALL USERS
Select the user that you want to award extra points to
Scroll down to 「Achievements」 and 「User』s Points」
Enter the number of extra points to be awarded to that user
Click Update User

Setting Occurrences
You can also set the maximum number of occurrences the achievement will be given for. Enter 0 for unlimited occurrences.

The Occurrences option is counted on a per user basis.
Achievement Images
An Achievement image is the badge or icon displayed on the front-end banner whenever the achievement is awarded. You can choose among the preinstalled set of icons or upload your own (we recommend an image with a 1:1 aspect ratio). The achievement image is optional.

Front End Display
Whenever the achievement is triggered, a popup will appear on the upper right side of the user』s screen. Depending on the title, message, and the image, this is how the popup will appear on the user』s end.

NOTE
When the RTL option is turned on in the Popup settings, the banner will be displayed on the upper left side of the screen instead of the right.
Popup Settings
The Achievements add-on also allows you to customize the popup based on your preferences.

In your WordPress admin area, navigate to LEARNDASH LMS > ACHIEVEMENTS, and click on the Popup Settings tab. The following options are available:

Popup Time – the number of second(s) before the popup fades away. Enter 0 to manually click to hide the popup
Background Color – the background color of the popup
Text Color – the text color of the popup
RTL – check this box to use RTL layout. If this is turned on, the popup will appear on the upper left side of the screen instead of the right

Once you』re done customizing the popup, click Save to save your settings.
Shortcodes
The Achievements add-on also gives you the ability to use shortcodes to display leaderboards and user achievements anywhere on your site.
In your WordPress admin area, navigate to LEARNDASH LMS > ACHIEVEMENTS, and click on the Shortcodes tab to see the available shortcodes.
Achievements Leaderboard [ld_achievements_leaderboard]

This shortcode displays a list of users and their points based on their achievements. This shortcode can be used with a parameter named number, which is the total users to be displayed in an achievement leaderboard, for example: [ld_achievements_leaderboard number="20"].
User Achievements [ld_my_achievements]

This shortcode displays a list of a logged-in user achievements, including achievements icon and its title on icon hover.
In addition to the shortcodes, there are also new Gutenberg blocks available for adding the user achievements and achievements leaderboard to any page on your site.

Course Access Settings

The course access settings allow you to define a set of criteria for how a user gains and maintains access to your course. We』ll go through all the options, some of which include a one-time payment, recurring payments, free access, prerequisites and more.

Locating Course Access Settings

Navigate to LEARNDASH LMS > COURSES
Click on the course you want to edit
Click on the Settings tab at the top of the page
Locate the section titled 「Course Access Settings」

Access Mode
Access mode is how you determine the way in which someone can gain access to a course (completely free, free with registration required, one-time payment, recurring subscription, etc.). LearnDash has 5 course access modes to choose from.
Open
The following rules apply to Open courses:

Free & open to anyone visiting your site
No registration, login or payment is required for access
Must be registered/logged in to track course progress
Linear Progression does not apply

NOTE
If you have Open courses on your site, as soon as someone registers an account, they will automatically gain access to all Open courses.
Free
The following rules apply to Free courses:

Must be registered/logged in to access
No payment is required
「Take this Course」 button is shown to users not yet enrolled. They are sent through the registration process. If you』re using LearnDash』s customized login & registration, the button will say 「Login to Enroll.」

The Free access mode is a good choice if you want an administrator to manually enroll students into the course.
Buy Now
The following rules apply to Buy Now courses:

Must be registered/logged in to access
Requires a one-time fee to be paid (no free access)
Only works with the following payment methods: PayPal, Stripe & 2Checkout
Do not use if you』re selling courses via a shopping cart or membership plugin (see Closed below)

The Buy Now access mode does not allow you to use discounts/coupons. Consider using an ecommerce or membership integration, along with the Closed access mode.
When using the Buy Now mode, you need to enter a price in the Course Price field.

First, select the Buy Now access mode
Then, enter your price in the Course Price field

Enabling the 「Buy Now」 access mode also allows you to let your users use their achievement points to purchase a course. Here』s how to do it using the Achievements Add-on.
NOTE
For both 「Buy Now」 and 「Recurring」 access modes, the user will be automatically enrolled into the course upon a completed payment.
Recurring
Recurring is very similar to Buy Now, except for recurring payments (as opposed to one-time payments).
The following rules apply to Recurring courses:

Must be registered/logged in to access
Requires a recurring fee (choose a billing cycle in X days, weeks, months or years)
Only works with the following payment methods: PayPal, Stripe & 2Checkout
Do not use if you』re selling courses via a shopping cart or membership plugin (see Closed below)

To set up the Recurring access mode:

Select the Recurring option
In the Course Price field, enter the amount you』d like to charge
Enter the amount of days/weeks/months/years on which you』d like the user to be billed again
Choose either day(s), week(s), month(s) or year(s) from the dropdown

NOTE
If choosing day(s), you must provide a number between 1-90.
You also have the option to control the recurring subscription with the following fields:

Recurring Times – determines how many times the billing cycle repeats. Leave empty for unlimited repeats
Course Trial Price – fill this out if you want to have a trial period for the course with a special 「trial」 price
Trial Duration – determine length of the trial period. After the trial is over, the normal course price billing goes into effect.

Course Enrollment URL
This field allows you to set a per-course redirect on your courses. Fill this out with the URL where you want your users to be redirected to after registration or enrollment.

You may have courses that you want to upsell, other offers, or even other course materials you want the users to download first, this setting will help you redirect the users to those pages after enrollment. They will also be automatically logged in and registered if they register on the native LearnDash Registration page.
NOTE
This option is only available for the 「Recurring」 and 「Buy Now」 options.
Closed
The following rules apply to Closed courses:

Must be registered/logged in to access
Allows you to sell your course via an ecommerce or membership add-on
Enables a custom Button URL field, which sends users to a custom sales or checkout page (a button is only shown if you enter a URL)
Manually enroll users into the course, or add them via group enrollment

When you choose Closed, you are essentially telling LearnDash to restrict access to your course, but don』t do anything else. You either let an ecommerce/membership add-on handle course access, or manually add users yourself. You can also add users to the course via group enrollment.
To redirect the Take this Course button to a custom URL:

First, select the Closed access mode
Then, enter the URL where you』d like the button to go

Course Prerequisites
Prerequisites allow you to choose another course (or courses) that a user must complete before taking this course. When selecting a course(s), you have two options:

Any Selected (default)
If a user has completed any one of the selected courses, they will be able to access this course.
All Selected
The user must complete all selected courses in order to access this course.

To add a course prerequisite:

Next to Course Prerequisites, toggle the setting on
Choose either Any Selected or All Selected
Click in the box to search for a course. Add as many courses as you』d like.

To remove a course prerequisite:

Click the x next to the course name

Course Points
Course points are a simple way to incentive your users. They can also be used as a prerequisite for another course.

To enable course points:

Next to Course Points, toggle the setting on

Required for Access
This is the number of points a user must obtain before gaining access to the course.
For example, let』s say you have a few beginner-level courses that each award 50 points upon completion. You might also have an intermediate-level course. If you want the student to complete at least 2 beginner-level courses (2 courses x 50 points/ea. = 100 points) before taking the intermediate-level course, you could set the required for access setting to 100 points.
Awarded on Completion
This is the number of points a user will receive for completing the course. In the above example, all of your beginner-level courses would set this value to 50.
NOTE
The provided examples are just to explain how course points work. You can use any numbers you』d like, and customize the course points to fit your learning curriculum.
Course Access Expiration
With course access expiration, you can choose to provide access to a course for a limited time period, based on the user』s enrollment date (aka: when they signed up for the course).

Next to Course Access Expiration, toggle the setting on
Enter the number of days the course will be available for

This will automatically count that many days from the user』s enrollment date

Choose whether or not you want the user』s course & quiz data to be deleted when access expires

WARNING
Once data is deleted, it is gone forever. If you choose to enable the Data deletion setting, we recommend you make a backup first.
Alter Course Access List
WARNING
We do not recommend manually updating the course access list as it can have unintended negative consequences.
The course access list displays a list of enrolled users by user ID. Each user ID is separated by a comma. Due to a wide variety of add-ons & third-party plugins that affect course enrollment dynamically, this list might not always reflect all enrolled users.
The recommended way to add or remove a user from a course is from the user』s profile page in the WordPress admin area. See user management to learn more.
If you need to alter the course access list:

Next to Alter Course Access List, toggle the setting on
In the box that appears, add or delete the user IDs you want to change. Remember to separate them with commas.
