Course points are displayed on the user’s profile by using the LearnDash Profile block or shortcode. They can also be inserted anywhere on your site using the [ld_user_course_points] shortcode (or the associated block). This section lists all the courses that the user is currently enrolled.
Hi Lucas — LearnDash specifically does nothave a mechanism for sending an email when adding a user to a course, but… you can send a user an email through WordPress when you create an account for them. When you go to Users > Add New, you’ll see an option to “Send User Notification.”
So basically i would like to add my own students onto learn dash, without providing a way for anyone to really sign up in any way. Just simply signing students up, and giving them access to certain courses by level, while keeping everything hidden from other students who do not qualify for that certain class.
You can filter your users based on the course in which they are enrolled, and/or the group in which they belong. Only the users enrolled in that course (or in that group) will be shown. Each user has his/her own profile page. In addition to the basic information WordPress displays, LearnDash stores course & group information on this page as well.
2) How many users can be on my course at one time? The answer to the first question is that there are effectively no limits to the number of users you can sign up to your course.

When a user has been designated as a Group Leader, they gain access to LearnDash Group Administration capabilities. This gives the Group Leader the ability to run reports and communicate with the users in their group(s).
To create an instructor, simply create a new user (or edit an existing one) from your USERS menu and set their role to “Instructor”. Now when this user logs into your site they will be presented with a custom admin panel where they can begin creating their own courses.
LearnDash will protect your course content without the need of a membership plugin. People who choose this approach appreciate the streamlined process for creating their course offering as it cuts back on having to learn another solution.

The quickest way to locate the LearnDash course ID is by navigating to the LearnDash LMS > Courses page in the WordPress admin. On that page, hover over the course you need the ID for. Depending on your browser, you should see a link appear somewhere near the bottom of your screen. This URL contains the course ID.
In order to do this, please go to your WP-Admin > Users > Search for the user and Edit > In the Edit User window, under the Role drop-down field, choose Instructor > Save. After that, the user's role will be changed to Instructor and your instructor will be able to add courses.
To access a user’s profile: From the USERS > ALL USERS page…. Click on the username of the user you’d like to view. The first information you’ll see is general, personal information about the user. Scroll down to view the additional sections that LearnDash adds to the user profile.
When someone enrolls into a course, LearnDash assigns them the “Subscriber” role. This is one of the default roles used by WordPress. There are a few things to keep in mind with user roles:
LearnDash uses WordPress’ built-in user management system. When a user enrolls in a LearnDash course, becomes a group leader, or any other action associated with LearnDash, that information is stored in the user’s WordPress profile.
To remove a user from a course: Click the course on the right that they are already enrolled in. Click the left arrow to remove that course from the ‘Already Enrolled’ window. Click the Update Profile button at the bottom of the page.
If you purchase a LearnDash PLUS or PRO license, you have access to a reporting tool called ProPanel, which includes additional user management features.
As an administrator, you can mark any course step as either complete or incomplete, simply by using the checkboxes. Click the “ (details)” link to view course steps. (optional) Use the arrows on the left to view topics/quizzes beneath a lesson. Check or uncheck a box next to any lesson, topic or quiz.
Clicking on the “ (details)” link will display additional information about the user’s access & progress in the course.
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”.
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.
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.
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.
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).
When using the Buy Now mode, you need to enter a price in the Course Price field.
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: If a user has completed any one of the selected courses, they will be able to access this course.
