Want your learners to interact with each other? BuddyPress for LearnDash turns your course driven website into a social education platform, creating a seamless bridge between BuddyPress and LearnDash. BuddyPress Groups Easily tie any LearnDash Course to a BuddyPress Group. Course participants automatically get added as members to the group Group becomes private to course participants and invited members Course Lessons become visible at the group Course activity gets streamed into the group feed (optional) Forum gets added to the group (if bbPress is enabled) Course featured image becomes group avatar (if no group avatar has been set) BuddyPress Activity Activity is one of the core features of BuddyPress, allowing users to interact with each other in real-time. When a course is tied to a group, course actions are optionally added to the group’s activity stream. Group admins can determine which actions to allow in their group, including: User starts a course User completes a course User creates a lesson User completes a lesson User passes a quiz User comments on single lesson page BuddyPress Members Your members can view their Active and Completed courses in their profiles. Leaders and Students get added as filterable tabs in your Members directory. All LearnDash user links redirect to member profiles (instead of author pages). bbPress Forums If bbPress is enabled, a forum will be tied to every “course group” automatically, using the same name as the course for the forum title. Group members can then discuss the course in one central location. Extend LearnDash with ‘Social Learner’ BuddyPress for LearnDash is built by the experienced developers at BuddyBoss who also offer a premium social learning solution called Social Learner.

Manual Completions for LearnDash gives admins a simple and powerful way to review completion status and manually mark LearnDash courses, lessons, topics, and quizzes as complete or incomplete. Use it for individual updates or manage bulk completions for hundreds of users at once. With a single click, you can load all users enrolled in a course and process their completion status quickly. The plugin also supports CSV uploads using fields such as user_id, course_id, lesson_id, topic_id, and quiz_id. This makes it easy to prepare a list of completions, review them, and process them in bulk in any order you prefer. Manual Completions can also bypass completion restrictions applied to xAPI content when needed. When a course step linked to xAPI content is marked incomplete, the related xAPI content completion status is removed to ensures the user must complete the xAPI content again. Tracking: – If you have an LRS, you can see tracking data, including the user id and name of the admin who marked the lesson complete.
