Create Courses with Ease

Something we hear from users of WP Courses quite frequently is how easy it is to use and to create your own courses. If you can create a WordPress page or post, you can create a course. WP Courses leverages many familiar WordPress interfaces which makes creating courses feel familiar.

Create Any Type of Lesson for your Courses

Video lessons are supported with videos hosted on Vimeo, YouTube, VdoCipher and other platforms. You can also create lessons with text, audio, images and more.

Organize Your Lessons into Modules

You’ll probably want to organize your lessons into modules for your courses. WP Courses keeps this process incredibly simple. Choose the appropriate course, Click “add new module” and drag it where you want. That’s it… Other competing plugins require that you manually attach each lesson to a module. This takes ages!

Quizzes for your Courses

Create multiple choice and multiple answer quizzes and select from many options including maximum quiz attempts, if empty answers are allowed, your quiz welcome message and more. Quizzes can also be attached to courses similar as lessons.

Modern App-Like User Interface

WP Courses leverages many modern web technologies that allow for extremely quick content loading times as well as lessons and courses that load without having to refresh the page. This leads to a seamless and quick navigation experience for your users that will keep your students more engaged with your course content.

User Profiles

WP Courses has a robust profile section with viewed lesson tracking, completed lesson tracking, course progress tracking and quiz results.

Integrates Seamlessly with Practically Any Theme

WP Courses has been designed to seamlessly integrate with any theme inlcuding popular theme and website builders like Divi and Elementor. There are also plenty of design options to help match the design of your website. All courses will be seamlessly integrated with your existing website content.

Mobile-Friendly Courses

Courses are easy to navigate and look beautiful on any device. All courses will display a mobile friendly navigation and content structure.

No Coding Required

No coding knowledge is necessary for creating great looking courses.

Progress Tracking for all Courses

Keep your students engaged with progress tracking. Icons and progress bars show your students which lessons they’ve viewed and completed. You can also view any of your student’s progress in the admin area, broken down by lesson and course.

Courses Analytics Dashboard

See which courses are the most popular, which students are most engaged and how many people are viewing and completing lessons of which course each day.

Restrict Course Lesson Content

Restrict your course lesson content to logged in users only with the click of a button. Individual course lessons can be restricted for fine control over your content’s visibility.

Seamless Course Browsing Experience

Browse courses by category or in one large collection. Each course has its own content with an area for a description, video and any other type of content you’d like to include.

Actively Supported and Developed

This courses plugin is actively supported and developed with new updates and features added regularly.

jurajj July 3, 2023

This plugin is very simple and works as expected. If you need to sell video courses through Woocommerce and payment gateway, this is the best choice. Perfect for combining LMS system with Woocommerce! They have a great support, they helped me step-by-step to resolve problem with AJAX on my client’s website. Thank you guys!

Excellent plugin and support!

bellaizabella May 1, 2023

I really like this plugin because it’s easy to use and I can create courses fast, without having any coding knowledge. I love the Premium version, because I can sell my courses through Woocommerce and the quizzes, attachments, badges, certificates make the learning more fun and engaging for my students. But, perhaps, the most important thing is that the support team quickly resolves any issues, even if they are not necessarily related to the plugin. Keep up the good work!

Support Excellent!

I was new at using WP Courses LMS and also run into a problem, my wpc_courses was not loading the data in a right way. I asked help and within few hours i got help, it was a hard problem to solve. First we thought caching was the problem, but after shutting everything down it was not the solution. The solution was to make a new subdomain on my website instead of the current one, and that solved the problem. He was friendly, helpfull and determined to find a solution. Together we solved it ! Keep up the good work with this wonderfull plugin, looking forward to work with it. With such support it has to be a good plugin!
