Your course registration page is the gateway to your online learning experience, and first impressions matter. That’s why we’re excited to unveil a completely refreshed LearnDash Registration and Checkout Page—designed to look better, work smarter, and provide a seamless experience for your users.

Here’s what’s new, why it’s a game-changer, and how you can start using it right away.

A Flexible, Sleek, Modern Design and Enhanced User Experience

The new LearnDash Registration Page delivers a streamlined and user-friendly experience. We’ve improved usability by moving the registration link to the top of the login form for quicker access, while payment options are now clearly visible, making the checkout process simpler. Real-time form validation helps reduce errors, and the hide/show password feature adds both security and convenience.

This update also introduces a modern two-column layout that minimizes scrolling and maximizes space, with a clear coupon ribbon that displays discounts and offers easy removal. Standardized headers like “Log In” and “Register” enhance readability, and the consistent UI provides a uniform, accessible experience across your site. Updated form widths give the pages a clean, polished look.

Lastly, our flexible layouts are more responsive, adapting beautifully to any device. Enhanced max-width controls ensure compatibility with different themes, so your registration page always looks its best.

Let’s take a look at the differences between the classic and modern registration pages. The first image is the previous registration page. This version is longer and required a bit of scrolling to complete the form. The following image is the new, modern, registration page. This new version shows the order details on the right-hand side.

Increase Your Conversions with a Modern Experience

This update not only modernizes the look of your registration page but also significantly enhances usability, leading to higher conversion rates. 

A smooth, intuitive registration process keeps users engaged and reduces abandonment—a critical factor in driving sales. Studies show that users are quick to abandon websites with poorly designed mobile experiences, so we’ve paid special attention to optimizing the mobile layout as well. A positive user experience, whether on desktop or mobile, encourages users to complete purchases, fill out forms, and sign up for courses, ultimately increasing your conversions .

How to Use the Modern Registration Page Style

1. Update LearnDash: Ensure you’re running the latest version.
2. Enable the LearnDash 3.0 Template: Go to WP Admin > LearnDash > Settings > General and activate the “LearnDash 3.0 Template.” 
3. Choose the “Modern” Appearance: Next, go to WP Admin > LearnDash > Settings > Registration/Login and choose the “Modern” Appearance. 
4. Test First: We recommend testing the new design on a staging or local site before applying it live. This helps you spot any issues and ensures a smooth transition.
