Similar to the case of courses, you can set a prerequisite for each lesson as well. You can do this from the ‘Lesson Prerequisite’ section. Once you have set a prerequisite, learners who have not completed that would see a message directing them to finish it first.

Can I sign up for a course on WordPress?

Those who want to take up your course can easily signup as WordPress users on your site. On the dashboard, they can view all the details regarding the progress of the course.

Can you set pre-requisites for a course?

If you want to set pre-requisites for your course, you can select an appropriate one. Only those users who complete the pre-requisite will be able to take up this particular course.

My Courses

The My Courses page is comprised of two blocks – Learner Messages Button and Learner Courses:

Learner Messages Button

The Learner Messages Button block enables learners to view their private messages with the teacher. This block is only displayed if the learner is logged in and private messaging is enabled in Sensei’s settings. Clicking the button takes the learner to a page that shows all of their messages.

Learner Courses

The Learner Courses block displays a list of courses the learner is currently enrolled in. There are separate views for filtering by active or completed courses, and the block’s settings enable you to customize colours and select which elements to display.
