• I use the free version which is really enough for a simple course. There are practical elements and it is not full of cumbersome features. The style, appearance, features and general content are more sleek and more responsive than a typical lms app/plugin. I’ve used a lot and their actual course pages are from 15 years ago. They only take care of sales pages. This plugin’s actual course pages are nice and usable.

    The only trouble I have is that the auto-generated pages can’t adapt to almost any WP theme. I tried more than 30. I know there is a recommended theme for masterstudy, but it is not free.

    The pro version looks good and I consider it, but I’d like to be able to use the free version freely with the newest WP themes.

    I practically tried the 3 first pages of the latest WP themes and almost all the themes tagged “education”, except the really old ones. Of course I must say I didn’t try them because of a problem with the plugin, but because I wanted to see what fits me.

    Anyway, the problem is that the generated pages don’t “obey” the theme settings and that the plugin doesn’t work without the generated pages. I don’t see why the header, for example, should be 1/4 of the page, with different fonts, while on the WP theme template on a random page (I made lots of random pages to test) it looks ok. There are parts of the page I’d like to get rid of, but that’s my own shortcoming for not knowing php. However, the styles, menus, font sizes, visibility of titles etc should follow the template.

    There is frequently a message “the [insert theme] doesn’t natively support XYZ feature” (especially the menu and the course blocks) which happens with lots of the themes and may be it’s in your interest to do a research.

    Also, if I click on “register” from within a course page, the register window is transparent and the form fields are not visible, making it impossible to register and the user has to go back (or leave).

    The other issues, like the choice of icons, svg or some stylistic choices, are minor. I found out how to fix them or replace them in the original files.

    One question: in the Pro version, can we use full html functionality, scripts, frames etc, or they disappear in the final output, like in the free version? (I’m talking about the lesson content itself).

    I noticed I can’t use h5p from within the lesson editor in the free. Did I miss a mention about it in the Pro, or is it a feature you don’t use? I don’t mean on any page, I mean within the lesson page specifically.

    I can’t send any screenshots because I unistalled the whole WP thing and all the plugins with it, it was too time-consuming to try to fix the little things instead of creating lessons.

    Hello @cchristina,

    My apologize for the delay in reply.

    Can you please provide the names of the themes you have attempted to use with the Masterstudy LMS plugin? We will pass this information on to our developers for consideration.

    Regarding the issue with disappearing HTML functionality, scripts, and frames, could you please specify the codes, scripts, and frames you have used? This will help us reproduce the issue.

    The behavior you described is not typical for the LMS plugin. The content of the lesson should not disappear. I have tested this on our testing site by adding code and frames, and did not detect any issues.

    Best regards,
