Protect a course entrance individually / hide specific courses from archive page

    Hi,

    1. Is there a way to protect a course entrance individually? (Besides using WooCommerce selling them, Membership Plugin with role restrictions)
    Thought about using a password (WordPress Page Password at course page didn’t help. Just protect the editor content, not the content/ entrance of the course).

    2. Is there a way to hide specific courses from archive pages/ category pages?
    For example the option to hide specific courses from listing (comparable to woocommerce product listing option).
    I found the solution using [shortcode] excluding course ids. As far as I get, this doesn’t affect the course category pages.

    Background:
    Some courses should be normally displayed in the course archive and sold normally over WooCommerce. Some courses should only be visible and accessible to some individual students. We would like to achieve an easy way – awesome would be an instructor opportunity to do so, as the front end course publisher is AMAZING ??

    Any idea to achieve that?
    Any hint?

    – I thought about using some “woocommerce coupons thing”, generate them once for the desired course and deliver them to the course instructor.

    – Using the enrollment feature in the pro version is only an option for admins, as it has total control over all registered users, and as I see so far, it is just accessible for admins too.

    I would appreciate any idea of achieving a solution.
    Thanks a lot.

    Best regards,
    Sebastian

  • Hello @afu24,

    1. The password protection support would take a while to implement. For now, you can select the “Course Visibility” to logged in only from Tutor LMS > Settings > General to hide everything from guest users and allow access to certain membership roles only. You can do specific courses per membership role or category with Paid Memberships Pro.

    If you want to have totally different control, then you can follow our documentation to design your own enrollment system- https://docs.themeum.com/tutor-lms/developers/programmatically-enroll-students/

    2. We do not have the feature at this moment. As a workaround, you can create custom archive pages with our shortcode. Or you can build a archive template with custom query and exclude courses with certain tag or ID.

    3. The background feature can be handled by injecting a CSS class based on the tags you use on the courses. Or you can use different set of course meta for colors.

    4. You can override the permissions set for the manual enrollment feature and allow instructors if you want.
