In case you&#8217;re not sure <a href=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/lms-definition.html\">what an LMS is<\/a>, it stands for learning management system and allows you to deploy an online course on your website. An LMS will help you set-up the content, manage users, and track their results.<\/p>\n<p>I used the 30-day demo for this LifterLMS review. LifterLMS installed the plugin on a subdomain on their servers for this demo. In full disclosure, I have not run an online course business with LifterLMS. I have however tried it out because I considered using this plugin for one of my courses.<\/p>\n<p>You can get a 30-day demo for $1. This demo does not provide you with access to the plugin to install on your own site. It&#8217;s access to a demo area that&#8217;s all set-up for you (this actually makes trying it out a lot easier).<\/p>\n<p>This LifterLMS tutorial and the <a href=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/lifterlms-review.html\">LifterLMS review<\/a> are both based on my experience using their 30-day demo. I do think this tutorial will help you figure out if LifterLMS is right for you and if you do decide to buy it, you&#8217;ll be able to get your online course up and running much quicker after reviewing this.<\/p>\n<p>The LifterLMS demo is a WordPress install. But it&#8217;s not just the LifterLMS plugin that&#8217;s installed, it&#8217;s a dummy site that already has courses pre-programmed into it. That way you can see exactly how this LMS plugin works.<\/p>\n<p>So it&#8217;s actually a great demo. Otherwise, you would have to add all this in yourself to be able to see what it looks like.<\/p>\n<h2>Table of Contents<\/h2>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_49 ez-toc-wrap-center

id=\"Tour_of_What_the_LifterLMS_Plugin_Can_Create\"><\/span>Tour of What the LifterLMS Plugin Can Create<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Here&#8217;s an example of what your LifterLMS course page will look like:<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-courses-examples.jpeg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This is like a catalog of your courses.<\/p>\n<p>When you click on an example course, as the first course in the screenshot above, you&#8217;ll be taken to the sales page for that specific course:<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-quickstart-course.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS course sales page\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This page looks ultra-professional. I like the layout with the image and then over to the right is the breakdown of the course lessons. You can click to open and close the specific lessons within each model. Then under the image, you can add in your course description.<\/p>\n<p>Underneath that is the area where you can talk about the course instructor.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-quickstart-course-2.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS course instructor and check out link\" width=\"2338\" height=\"2274\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You can add in an image there for the instructor.<\/p>\n<p>Then there&#8217;s also a box with the price and an enroll button.<\/p>\n<p>After clicking on enroll, you&#8217;ll be taken to a sign-up page on your site that looks like this:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-purchase-page.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS purchase page\" width=\"2964\" height=\"2334\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a little wide but looks pretty good otherwise. Everything is all on one page. With this one there&#8217;s no credit card information needed since it&#8217;s a free course.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, you can actually dial back the information you ask for with a free sign-up. You may just want your learner&#8217;s name and email address and there&#8217;s a way to do this (you&#8217;ll see as we keep going).<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Inside_a_LifterLMS_Course\"><\/span>Inside a LifterLMS Course<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>I was taken right to the course page once I entered in my sign-up information, which was nice. There were no further hoops to jump through. It logged me in automatically and even showed me a little success box (it disappeared before I could grab it in the screenshot).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-quickstart-course-3.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS logged in course page\" width=\"5924\" height=\"3260\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Since I was logged in immediately, I was able to click on the menu on the right and start with the first lesson, &#8216;Why LifterLMS?&#8217;. When I clicked on that lesson, I was taken here where I could watch the video and start learning.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-quickstart-course-4.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS progress and lessons\" width=\"4238\" height=\"3046\" \/><\/p>\n<p>That page looks great. It&#8217;s got the video embedded in it as well as the same menu so you don&#8217;t get lost. Then there are also Lesson Resources. There&#8217;s also a button to mark the lesson as complete.<\/p>\n<p>When I mark it off, it crosses out the &#8216;Why LifterLMS?&#8217; text in the menu as shown:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-quickstart-course-5.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS progress checked off\" width=\"3048\" height=\"1608\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The progress bar also moves forward a little which is a great feature.<\/p>\n<p>Under the &#8216;Mark Complete&#8217; button there&#8217;s also a section where you can see the previous lesson and the next lesson:<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-mark-complete.jpeg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This is also a nice touch. Everything really looks great.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Quizzing_Your_Students_With_LifterLMS\"><\/span>Quizzing Your Students With LifterLMS<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>You can also quiz your students. Within this course, LifterLMS offers a short quiz so you can see what a quiz looks like. Here&#8217;s a screenshot of the quiz:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-quiz-question.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS quiz example\" width=\"5073\" height=\"2598\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When the quiz is complete, you&#8217;re taken to a page with your score:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-quiz-results.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS quiz results\" width=\"5199\" height=\"3417\" \/><\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a nice graphic on this page as well as some quiz information. I think it really looks great!<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"LifterLMS_Engagements\"><\/span>LifterLMS Engagements<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>In addition to quizzes, you can also set-up achievements and certificates for your learners. In this screenshot I&#8217;m logged in as a learner who has visited the certificates page:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-my-certificates.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS certificates\" width=\"4486\" height=\"2330\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As you can see, there&#8217;s a certificate in there.<\/p>\n<p>LifterLMS will also display messages as you&#8217;re working through a course. It&#8217;s a nice way to get some engagement with your learners even when you&#8217;re not actually online with them. Otherwise, if there&#8217;s no acknowledgment of completion, scoring well on a quiz or test or finishing a course can seem underwhelming.<\/p>\n<p>You can also set up achievements for your learners as well. This might be when they pass a quiz while a certificate could be for completing a course.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"LifterLMS_Student_Dashboard\"><\/span>LifterLMS Student Dashboard<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>You can go to the &#8216;My Courses&#8217; link on the site and check-out all your courses.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-dashboard-progress.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS student dashboard\" width=\"3932\" height=\"2956\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This shows you all the courses you&#8217;re enrolled in.<\/p>\n<p>I really liked the red progress bar there that shows how far you&#8217;ve made it through that particular course. So the plugin is keeping track of your progress and displaying it to you in several places in the course.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re a logged-in student and you go up to Courses, you&#8217;ll see the course page again. This time any course you&#8217;re enrolled in will show you the progress you&#8217;ve made through that particular course:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-courses-progress.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS course logged in page\" width=\"3022\" height=\"1144\" \/><\/p>\n<p>See the little red progress bar by the Quickstart Course for LifterLMS? It&#8217;s a nice feature!<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Social_Learning_is_Possible\"><\/span>Social Learning is Possible<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>You can also set-up social learning (this is an add-on with a premium price) so that your users will each have a social page and can connect with each other within your course and on social sites like Facebook. Here&#8217;s what a social profile page looks like:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7004 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-social.jpg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS student directory\" width=\"1122\" height=\"920\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-social.jpg 1122w, https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-social-300x246.jpg 300w, https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-social-768x630.jpg 768w, https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-social-1030x845.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-social-705x578.jpg 705w, https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-social-450x369.jpg 450w, https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-social-50x41.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1122px) 100vw, 1122px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you enable this add-on then users can customize their profile and background images. They&#8217;ll also be able to show off their achievements here (you can see I&#8217;ve got an achievement, which is indicated by the thumb&#8217;s up on my banner). Your learners will be able to share their thoughts and review their courses, memberships, and achievements. It&#8217;s a nice feature!<\/p>\n<p>From the standpoint of a user, LifterLMS is very nice. Everything is organized well and it&#8217;s got a lot of features learners will appreciate.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Paid_Course_Example\"><\/span>Paid Course Example<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Now if you&#8217;ve got a paid course, you can see how that looks by trying out the Leadership course (it was the second one on the courses page). The Leadership course has a sales page with all the same information as on the free course; a place for an image, description, course instructor bio, and then there&#8217;s a paid box that looks like this:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/b8cb0c72-181e-4cb3-b3ab-dee6ab97f00e.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS paid course example\" width=\"2656\" height=\"1959\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It looks great. I like how you can offer the course with different payment plans like making a one-time payment or making monthly payments.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Login_Page\"><\/span>Login Page<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If someone has already signed up for a course and wants to log in, they&#8217;ll be taken to this page here:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-payment-options.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS login page\" width=\"5174\" height=\"2910\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It looks professional and simple. It also has a &#8216;Lost your password&#8217; link where a student can retrieve their password. In addition, there&#8217;s a &#8216;Remember me&#8217; checkbox so students don&#8217;t have to continually enter their login information.<\/p>\n<p>Each page I&#8217;ve shown you have the same header and footer which is a nice feature. This is something that isn&#8217;t always possible with a cloud LMS. It&#8217;s definitely a benefit of hosting your own LMS.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"LifterLMS_Admin\"><\/span>LifterLMS Admin<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Since LifterLMS is a WordPress plugin you&#8217;ll navigate a typical WordPress site in the admin.<\/p>\n<p>Once you log in, you&#8217;ll see all the standard WordPress links like your Dashboard, Posts, Media, and Pages. You can add and edit posts and pages right from the admin just like you would normally do.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, if you install LifterLMS to a preexisting WordPress site, then nothing will change to your visitors. All the changes will be within your WordPress admin until you start creating course sales pages.<\/p>\n<p>The LifterLMS link is after the Comments link. That area of the WordPress admin will be new as well as the Courses, Memberships, the Engagements link, Orders, and Private Posts links. This section that you&#8217;ll be most interested in:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-wordpress-dashboard.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS WordPress admin\" width=\"4774\" height=\"1873\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Since I&#8217;m using the trial for this LifterLMS tutorial, the &#8216;Your trial will expire in &#8230; days&#8217; banner will be in almost every screenshot. It displays how long you have left along with a Purchase button. Even though that&#8217;s a little annoying, I like the $1 trial. I didn&#8217;t have to install the plugin myself and instead just got everything set-up.<\/p>\n<p>This $ trial is actually really handy if you have a WordPress site already running with visitors coming to it. You may not want to install a robust plugin like this on a live site until you know for sure you&#8217;re going to use it.<\/p>\n<p>I would highly suggest putting your site in a &#8216;sandbox area&#8217; (one where it&#8217;s not live) when you do get around to installing LifterLMS. My host, Kinsta offers this. Within the Kinsta control panel, I can set up a staging environment (or the sandbox), where it&#8217;s not live. I can configure it exactly the way I want it, then push it to live when I&#8217;m sure it&#8217;s all ready for the world to see.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"LifterLMS\"><\/span>LifterLMS<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Clicking on the LifterLMS link in your menu takes you to the settings page first.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Settings\"><\/span>Settings<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The settings page is the default page when you click on LifterLMS. There are several tabs on this page that we&#8217;ll go through next.<\/p>\n<h4>General<\/h4>\n<p>Clicking on the Settings tab takes you to the General settings page right away. This page shows you the number of enrollments and registrations you&#8217;ve had this week, the sales, and the number of lessons your learners have completed.<\/p>\n<p>LifterLMS also shows you the most popular add-ons, courses, and resources their company offers here as well.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-general.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS add-ons\" width=\"6390\" height=\"3334\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Courses<\/h4>\n<p>Settings is a big section. You&#8217;ll be presented with 8 tabs running across the top of the settings pages. Courses are the second tab.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-courses-dashboard.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS courses settings\" width=\"5626\" height=\"2578\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Courses page allows you to configure some global settings like allowing students to mark a lesson as &#8216;incomplete&#8217; after they have completed a lesson. That way they can retake lessons.<\/p>\n<p>You can also set the course catalog page. This is the page where your students will end up when they click on the Courses link in your main menu.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, you can also set how many courses you&#8217;d like to display per page and you can re-organize the courses. You can choose from alphabetically or most recently uploaded courses to name a few.<\/p>\n<h4>Memberships<\/h4>\n<p>The memberships tab allows you to restrict your site by membership level. This means you can allow access to the site only to users who have a specific membership level. They&#8217;ll be able to view and purchase a membership level right from your site. If you have a collection of courses and would like your learners to gain access to all (or a portion) of them depending on their membership level, you can do that from this screen.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-memberships-dashboard.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS membership settings\" width=\"5634\" height=\"2662\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Just like with courses, you can select which page will serve as your membership catalog page as well as how many memberships to show per page and how you want them sorted.<\/p>\n<h4>Accounts<\/h4>\n<p>The accounts tab has quite a bit to it. The dashboard page will be shown to logged-in users. You can customize it here and select how you&#8217;ll order your courses.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-accounts-dashboard.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS accounts settings\" width=\"5847\" height=\"1631\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Student Dashboard Endpoints<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Then you can select Student Dashboard Endpoints.&#xA0; These endpoints are what shows up on their Dashboard. You can allow them to view the courses, memberships, achievements, certificates, notifications, edit their account, retrieve their password, redeem vouchers, or view their order history.<\/p>\n<p>I deleted some of the text in these; like the lost password and redeem vouchers, and those menu items were no longer on my Dashboard page. So you can decide how many of these endpoints you want to allow to your students.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-student-dashboard-endpoints.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS student endpoints\" width=\"5874\" height=\"3530\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>User information options<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a lot of settings you can adjust here to make your course exactly the way you want it. I&#8217;ll just go through some of the most relevant options (the stuff I was most interested in).<\/p>\n<p>You can disable usernames and the system will stop allowing your users to choose their own and will instead enable them to login with their email address. This is great because your learners will have less to remember. You can make things as easy on them as possible (which I think is a good idea).<\/p>\n<p>Next, you can set the password strength. I actually signed up for the free course while this was enabled and it sucked! I would have given up if I were a real student. So I suggest not marking this checkbox or at the very least leave it marked, but lower the required password strength down to weak or medium.<\/p>\n<p>Otherwise, you are asking your users to come up with very complex passwords and even worse, they have to match it. This will be difficult for most of them.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-general-info-settings.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS user information options\" width=\"5802\" height=\"3413\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This next part deals with Terms and Conditions and your Privacy Policy. You can configure LifterLMS to only allow users who agree to accept your Terms and Conditions to enroll in your courses. If they don&#8217;t accept, they cannot enroll.<\/p>\n<p>You can also select a Privacy Policy page and decide whether you want to display a Privacy Policy notice at registration and check out. It&#8217;s nice to have these as options!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Account Erasure Requests<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This allows you to wipe all your user&#8217;s data.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-account-erasure-request.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS account erasure requests\" width=\"4421\" height=\"2432\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Checkout Fields<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The checkout fields section is handy. You can decide exactly what information is required at checkout.&#xA0; You can ask for first and last name, address, phone number, and ask for an email confirmation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Open Registration Fields<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The open registration is for signing up for a free course. You can change any of the fields below:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-open-registration-fields.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS open registration fields\" width=\"3903\" height=\"2247\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Account Update Fields<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The account update fields panel allows you to customize the user information fields available to your learners on the account update screen.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-account-update-fields.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS account update fields\" width=\"3674\" height=\"1788\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Checkout<\/h4>\n<p>The checkout tab allows you to customize your checkout page. You can decide which page to use as well as force that page to display on an HTTPS page. This will likely help many of your users feel more comfortable entering their credit card information.&#xA0; Here you can also enable automatic retry of failed payments.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-checkout-settings.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS checkout settings\" width=\"5642\" height=\"2238\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Currency Options<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Currency options are next. There are quite a few options here that you might use especially if your target market is not in the U.S.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-checkout-settings-2.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS currency options\" width=\"5678\" height=\"2566\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Payment Gateways<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This panel will allow you to set-up and enable your payment gateways.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-payment-gateways.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS payment gateways\" width=\"5674\" height=\"1214\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Engagements<\/h4>\n<p>An email can be sent out when a learner completes an engagement. You can customize the emails the LifterLMS system sends out under the Engagements tab.<\/p>\n<p>You can change the sender name, which in my case would be either my name or Business Bolts (my site name), the sender email (so put your company email there), the header image (which could be your logo), and the email footer text.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-engagements-general.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS engagement settings\" width=\"5646\" height=\"2242\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Certificates Settings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Email certificates to your learners as they complete all or part of a course. Change the image height and width or enable the certificates to be sent as legacy image sizes. You&#8217;ll have to test all this out to see how they look best.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-background-image-settings.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS certificates settings\" width=\"5686\" height=\"1806\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Notifications<\/h4>\n<p>The notifications tab will show a display like the following:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-notifications-settings.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS notifications\" width=\"3764\" height=\"2720\" \/><\/p>\n<p>These notifications relate to certificates and achievements as well as receipts. There are many other reasons you might want to configure LifterLMS to send out notifications. You&#8217;ll see a list of the different reasons you may send out notifications and then a configure column over on the right.<\/p>\n<p>If you click on that column, you can configure the notification.&#xA0; I clicked on the first Notification which is for an Achievement earned. It&#8217;s taken me to the following screen:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-achievement-example.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS achievement page\" width=\"6074\" height=\"3751\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As you can see, you can customize exactly what will be displayed for an achievement.<\/p>\n<p>There are also email notifications on the notifications screen. I clicked on one of those and was taken to the following screen:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-achievement-notifications.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS email notifications\" width=\"4256\" height=\"3044\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You can also customize the email notifications as well as who will get those. For instance, if the instructor should get a notification that a student completed the course you can change that here.<\/p>\n<p>As you can see, LifterLMS allows for a high level of engagement.<\/p>\n<h4>Integrations<\/h4>\n<p>The integrations screen allows you to see at a glance what integrations you have enabled and installed.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-integrations-settings.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS integrations manager\" width=\"4213\" height=\"2347\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You can click on the integrations to configure them from within this screen. Here, I clicked on LifterLMS Social Learning and was taken to this screen:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-social-learning-settings.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS social learning settings\" width=\"4926\" height=\"2358\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You can enable or disable this plugin here as well as select the page where the student directory, those without access, and the timeline will be shown. You can also select who will be allowed to view the social comments (for instance you can keep it to users only or enable it for the public).<\/p>\n<p>Then you can also choose which social networks you want to enable as shown in the screenshot below:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-social-networks.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS social networks\" width=\"2154\" height=\"2794\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reporting\"><\/span>Reporting<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Reporting is another big menu under LifterLMS on the main WordPress vertical navigation bar.<\/p>\n<p>The Students screen is the first screen you&#8217;ll be taken to after clicking on the Reporting tab.<\/p>\n<h4>Students<\/h4>\n<p>The Students tab lists out all the students registered for your course.

A graph of the sales information is provided.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/e3a674c3-a187-4042-a8b3-449952f72b0f.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS sales reporting\" width=\"5464\" height=\"3034\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Enrollments<\/h4>\n<p>The final reporting screen shows information related to your enrollments.

You can also check whether to show correct answers and\/or randomize the question order. It&#8217;s pretty advanced!<\/p>\n<p>Under the general settings is a drop-down for the layout which looks like this:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7000 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-quiz-layout.jpg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS add quiz question\" width=\"634\" height=\"990\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-quiz-layout.jpg 634w, https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-quiz-layout-192x300.jpg 192w, https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-quiz-layout-451x705.jpg 451w, https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-quiz-layout-450x703.jpg 450w, https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-quiz-layout-32x50.jpg 32w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 634px) 100vw, 634px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Here you can choose the layout of your quiz page.

The core LifterLMS plugin only comes with the Basic Question types. You just click on the type of questions you want in your quiz. Once done you&#8217;ll be taken to a screen that looks like this:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7002 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-quiz-add-q.jpg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS quiz entry\" width=\"578\" height=\"264\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-quiz-add-q.jpg 578w, https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-quiz-add-q-300x137.jpg 300w, https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-quiz-add-q-450x206.jpg 450w, https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-quiz-add-q-50x23.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 578px) 100vw, 578px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Just add your question, enter the answer choices, and select the correct answer. You can also toggle on the Result Clarifications and enter in an explanation. When you&#8217;re done, just save it, and exit out of the course builder.<\/p>\n<p>If you go back to the main list of courses, you can click on a course title on this screen, and go to the edit page for that course like shown below:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-edit-course.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS edit course\" width=\"5598\" height=\"2558\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Here you can make edits to an existing course.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Add_Course\"><\/span>Add Course<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Under the courses tab comes the &#8216;Add Course&#8217; tab. Clicking on this brings you to a screen with different options on it. The first part of this screen is where you can enter your new course title as well as some content about the course.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-add-new-course.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS add new course\" width=\"6214\" height=\"2710\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This page is set-up like a typical WordPress screen where you can decide to publish the post, keep it as a draft, or set it to publish on a schedule. You can also choose to add it to a specific course category.<\/p>\n<h4>Course Options<\/h4>\n<p>You&#8217;ll see the Course Options box next. This box has several tabs, the first of which is the Sales Page tab.&#xA0; You can choose to display different content to visitors who are not yet enrolled in the course. The options are; display the default course content, show custom content, redirect to a WordPress page, or redirect to a custom URL.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-course-sales-page.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS course options sales page\" width=\"4334\" height=\"1078\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The General tab comes next. This General tab allows you to enter in an estimated length for your course, choose a difficulty category, include a featured video as well as a special display feature for it, and include featured audio. You can see a screenshot of the General tab below:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-course-general.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS course options general\" width=\"4302\" height=\"2526\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Next comes the restrictions tab. Here you can change the message that will show when a non-enrolled user tries to access your content without enrolling first. You can set registration start and end dates for the course, as well as set start and end dates for the course. Another option is to enable a prerequisite course that users must take first. Finally, you can enable a course capacity (if you need to limit your enrollments in a particular course). All this is very handy!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-course-restrictions.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS course options restrictions\" width=\"4310\" height=\"2570\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The last tab under Course options is the Reviews tab. You can choose to enable reviews, display them on the page and even prevent multiple reviews from being submitted by the same user.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-course-reviews.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS course options reviews\" width=\"4310\" height=\"1726\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Product Options<\/h4>\n<p>If you keep scrolling down the new course page, you&#8217;ll see the Product Options box.&#xA0; This is where you can add in course access plans. When you first scroll down to this box, it&#8217;ll look like this:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-course-access-plans.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS product options\" width=\"601\" height=\"265\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You can click on Add Access Plan and the box will open up to display the following:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-course-access-new.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS course access plans\" width=\"595\" height=\"799\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This allows you to configure the payment options available for the course during checkout. You&#8217;ll need to fill that out and set up an access plan.<\/p>\n<h4>Course Settings<\/h4>\n<p>The next box is the course settings box. Here you can add in a course excerpt like shown below:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-course-settings-screen.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS course settings\" width=\"4306\" height=\"2846\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Layout Settings<\/h4>\n<p>Next are the Layout Settings. You can choose to have alternate navigation from this page of your site, hide the title, hide the header, or hide the footer widgets area. If you enable all this then your page will not have many links leading off it (this is sometimes done to keep people on your page and keep them reviewing your sales page).<\/p>\n<p>You can also choose from one of the 4 layout options and you can add in page header content. All this is shown in the screenshot below:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-course-layout-settings.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS layout settings\" width=\"4786\" height=\"3106\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Custom Fields, Discussion, Instructors, and Student Management<\/h4>\n<p>You can use custom fields to add extra metadata to your page. The discussion box allows for comments and trackbacks or pingbacks.<\/p>\n<p>Choose the right instructor from the drop-down list. If the post is published, you&#8217;ll be able to manage the students who are enrolled within it.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-custom-fields.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS custom fields\" width=\"4342\" height=\"2998\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Categories\"><\/span>Categories<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The categories tab opens up the following screen where you can add in different course categories:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-course-categories.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS course categories\" width=\"6222\" height=\"2878\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Difficulties\"><\/span>Difficulties<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Clicking on the Difficulties tab opens up a screen where you can add in new course difficulty.

If you have a lot of lessons, you can filter them by course as shown below:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-lessons.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS lessons page\" width=\"1069\" height=\"545\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Edit Existing Lesson<\/h4>\n<p>You can edit an existing lesson from the lessons tab by clicking on the lesson title.

This will take you to a page where you can add in your lesson.<\/p>\n<p>This page scrolls for quite a ways. This is how it starts. You can add in your title and some content.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-add-lesson.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS add new lesson\" width=\"5358\" height=\"2706\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As you scroll down, you&#8217;ll get to Lesson Settings where you can embed video and\/or audio content. You can also mark the content as a free lesson which means it will be available to logged-out users on the sales page.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-lesson-settings.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS courses general\" width=\"5823\" height=\"3099\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As you move through the tabs under Lesson Settings, you&#8217;ll get to Prerequisites.

This is similar to the course settings where you can choose to have alternate navigation, hide the title, hide the header, and hide the footer widgets area if you choose.<\/p>\n<p>You can also select a default layout and add your content.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-layout-settings.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS layout settings\" width=\"6312\" height=\"5025\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Next comes excerpts. Excerpts are summaries of your content that can be used in your theme. You can add in excerpts for your lesson here. Custom Fields can be used to add extra metadata to your post.<\/p>\n<p>You can allow your learners to leave comments and allow trackbacks and pingbacks on the page. Finally, you can select the course content author.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-excerpts.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS excerpt panel, custom fields panel, discussion panel, and author\" width=\"5883\" height=\"4791\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reviews\"><\/span>Reviews<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>You can manage your reviews from here and add a review from this screen as well.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-reviews.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS reviews\" width=\"5438\" height=\"2134\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Memberships\"><\/span>Memberships<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This next major tab will allow you to manage your memberships (if you have any).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-different-memberships.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS membership view\" width=\"5466\" height=\"2126\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You can edit memberships by clicking on the existing membership link.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-tech-membership-example.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS edit membership \" width=\"5490\" height=\"2950\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Add_Membership\"><\/span>Add Membership<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>You can also add a new membership which is as simple to do as adding in a new course.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-add-new-membership.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS add new membership\" width=\"5462\" height=\"2966\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Next comes the Membership Settings box.

You can choose what happens when a non-member attempts to access content restricted to this membership. You can also decide whether to display a message after redirecting non-members trying to access your content and you can select exactly what that message says.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly under Membership Settings is Auto-Enrollment. By joining a particular membership students will be automatically enrolled in certain courses.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/lifterlms-membership-auto-enrollment.jpeg\" alt=\"Screenshot of LifterLMS membership settings auto enrollment\" width=\"4418\" height=\"1714\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Next up you can choose Membership Access Plans.
