Today we are pleased to share with you the release of two new LearnDash extensions both centered around course creation.

Specifically, one will help you speed up your course creation while the other offers a new way for courses to be developed on your learning management system.

These two add-ons (one free and one premium) are brought to you by the vendor WisdmLabs.

Course Content Cloner

Course Cloner

This free add-on speeds up the course creating process by allowing you to instantly clone any course on your site. Once you create a general course format, adding other courses is just a click away!

Add-On Features

Duplicate course hierarchy – With the click of a button you can immediately clone an entire course including lessons, topics, and quizzes. All content is placed into “draft” status.

Bulk title editor – After cloning an entire course, the bulk title editor makes it easy for you to change the title of the course, its lessons, topics, and quizzes eliminating the need to visit each item individually.

How It Works

Once installed and activated you will see a “clone course” option from your course list. In addition, there is a bulk title editor option added under the LEARNDASH LMS menu item.

After clicking “clone course”, the plugin will go through the process of creating duplicates of your course, including all associated lessons, topics, and quizzes.

Once complete, you will be prompted to bulk edit the titles.

Where To Download

This is a free add-on created by WisdmLabs. It is available for download on their website.

Front-End Course Creation

Front-end course design

This premium add-on makes it possible for LearnDash courses to be created on the front-end of the site. This is a perfect if you have multiple course authors and prefer that course creation happens outside of the WordPress dashboard.

Add-On Features

Front-end course creation – Any user who has the “Course Author” role can develop their courses (including quizzes) from the front-end of your site.

Block back-end access – Course Authors are prevented from accessing the standard WordPress administration pages or LearnDash settings.

BuddyPress compatible – Use in conjunction with BuddyPress so Course Authors can quickly create and manage their courses from their profile.

How It Works

Once installed and activated, this add-on will automatically create the pages where Course Authors can create their courses from the front-end of your site.

Where To Download

This is a premium add-on created by WisdmLabs. It is available for purchase on their website.
