[@trabelsisafa796]

best course ever thank you so much

[@Julieskvz]

This is by far the most comprehensive tutorial on how to set up a LMS. I wanted to use Lifter LMS (for a long time) because I heard that is one of the best options and I was looking for tutorials and nothing compares with this. THANK YOU so much for your dedication and congratulations on your method of teaching... Yes, it is for beginners. All the topics are very well explained. I believe one of the reasons we procrastinate is because we do not find the instructions on how to do it. Or the people charge a lot of money (for beginners). Not a lot of people think like the apprentice or have the ability to communicate. You did it! I will look forward to watching more videos like this. You have my like and subscription. Thank you again!

[@gerardpatrick8960]

For the last three years I have been following a number of channels with WP related tutorials. This channel ranks right at the top. The quality of the tutorials here is unsurpassed. I am hoping there will be one on WPML at some stage and also perhaps one on Advanced Custom Fields, which I know absolutely nothing about. Please continue the great work. It really is invaluable. Best wishes, Gerard

[@Websites4Beginners]

Both will come! Thanks for all the support, Gerard. It's much appreciated the feedback 😊

[@harrylingo1155]

Me two. It's been few months I check WordPress Channels. There are many very good info out there, but the rhythm and the structure used by JP is very good. I just came to his channel by chance few days ago and I appreciate it a lot.

[@aayushi3040]

After researching other LMS platforms, I concluded that Edredo is a perfect platform that is completely FREE, has all the features like other platforms, and has some additional advanced filters. Overall, a free and new place to learn and connect with a new group of teachers and students across the world.

[@duobros290]

I am from Russia, and I was looking for a lesson to learn how to make a course. I can say that you made a great tutorial. For me it is much more easy to understand your english guide than some our WPlowers videos on russian language. Thank you!

[@hisbibleschool279]

Great tutorial that explains everything and makes it easy to understand at a comfortable pace. I really appreciate this. Now I can finish setting up my site and I know what I'm doing!

Hi, Julie - what do you mean engagement? For LifterLMS or like a wedding engagement? 😊

[@ScottPaddock]

This is an absolutely fabulous video! Thank you so much for explaining the way the different types of pages work. I figured out the building the course structure stuff pretty easily on my own, but could not figure out what and how the course landing page worked. I also didn't know how to add in the links and menus. Your video made everything crystal clear. Thanks 👍👍👍

Thank you. It was a HUGE help!

[@AtharJaber]

Thank you for all the insight. It's very helpful. A question though: is there a difference between adding a KZbin video through the settings or embedding it directly in the lesson through the wordpress gutenberd editor block?

Highly informational and practical tutorial! Thank you! May I know if it is possible to edit whatever you did in Elementor instead of Gutenberg?

[@Websites4Beginners]

Hi, Ray - yes you can. I'll have tutorials on that and even how you can use dynamic content in Elementor PRO. That would only be coming out next month later. Thanks for the feedback! 😊

[@GregoryPearsonMusic]

Great tutorial - I like the way you explain things. I have the basic pro level of astra and want to have lifter lms, but also need to add additional pages such as items for sale using woocommerce and downloads using the easy digital downloads, and connecting mail chimp. Do you think these plugins will cause conflicts? I also lost my background image in the transparent header but that is another issue perhaps. Also should I edit the entire site with Gutenburg? I have been using Elementor.

Excellent tutorial!!! I have an issue with the blocks. For course information mine displays an error message; “This block has encountered an error and cannot be previewed” any idea what’s going on there?

[@LifterLMS]

Ryan, can you plz contact the LifterLMS support team so they can assist: lifterlms.com/docs/how-can-i-contact-support/

[@lumberpilot]

I wish there was a way to add content right at the sections where you could have a section overview just like in a textbook. Unfortunately, there is no way to do this. My work around is to add the section overview at the beginning of lesson one. However, this seems like an easy thing to add to LifterLMS.

[@kasforai]

This works with brizy?

[@amirametwally4064]

hi, thank you for ur vedio , but could you plz add the video link (how to customize my theme ) so any thing i write or add automatically added with the same theme of my website

[@ned1491]

how big the size can we upload video for each??thanks~~~

[@chiquillo3k]

Hey thanks for the video. I got a question, can I upload a video from a private list in youtube or vimeo? this is to avoid having people see the video lesson for free on youtube. Thank you in advance.

[@LifterLMS]

Yes you can do that. Use an unlisted video in KZbin. Here's some more video recommendations: lifterlms.com/docs/where-would-my-videos-for-my-courses-be-hosted/

[@ganithapanthiya-themathscl6061]

Hii.. this is the best video... thanks alot. But I have a small question. When I have multiple courses, and when a student start a course at that course page, at the bottom student can navigate through next and previous courses. Can I remove that? Navigating between COURSES from a course page? not lessons.

[@spacemax1744]

I accidentally clicked the skip set up on the wizard and now I don't know how to get the wizard back. What should I do?

[@cyndeeadkins1845]

Does this allow you to sell ZOOM calls? Such as Zoom conference videos? Live zoom courses that allows you to pay for the course and then processed to send you a link/reveals the link to sign up for the zoom conference call?

[@wsricardo23]

I have Courses like "maths" And would need content, diciplines/subjects, as 'Linear Algebra' And 'Calculus'. What way I could to use?

[@damian-henderson]

Hi, thanks for the great video, I am having problems, I think they changed the theme so you have to now pay for the pro version to get the options to change the colors of the course of lifterlms, the options are all locked out in the control panel and ask to buy the pro astra theme, is there anyway round this? I've put some hours in and set my course up, but I cannot get the colors of the course to match my free astra theme. What do you recommend me to do?

[@damian-henderson]

Also just found out that now not everything is free, after a couple of tries, you have to buy plugins you need and themes to do anything.

[@Websites4Beginners]

Hi, Damian. Unfortunately, yes, things do change as the business models vary, and more and more some previous free features are shifting over to pro features, otherwise they can't keep their business doors open. I'm planning to make a new LifterLMS tutorial later in the year, and using the Kadence theme, as there is actually a free starter site designed around LifterLMS in Kadence. Thanks for pointing out the "missing" free features. I'll definitely begin working on the update video soon. Go well, JP

[@damian-henderson]

@@Websites4Beginners Hi, thank you for the reply! I have just had some help from someone and switched to the Kadence theme and got all the colours to match up, just have to buy the paypal plugin button to sell courses, or bundle pack to use other plugins, I guess there is no way around this still? Investment is now required on so many matters these days, plugins, marketing etc, it is difficult to do everything for free these days if you want it to be successful I think. Thanks for your help.

[@Websites4Beginners]

@@damian-henderson Yup, and that upsell for the paypall ain't cheap. Good you got right with Kadence, I think they are nicely integrated with LifterLMS. Go well!

Hi, C Rowe - apologies for the late reply. Good you sorted the first one out. Not sure on the blog page as this would be need to set manually, or it could be that the theme is giving issues when using LifterLMS. Have you been able to sort it out?

The website address changed also, so I definitely need to spend some time to update all these old links. Thanks for the reminder.
