How To Setup LearnDash Membership Tutorial - Without A Membership Plugin

[@learnalong233]

I just purchased LearnDash last week using a link you supplied one time within your emails that I receive from you. I just had to delete the Paid Membership Pro last night - it was hiding my Login in the WP-Admin and was treating me like a student and wouldn't allow me to go to the back-office off my site. So excited to be viewing this video to incorporate the Membership with the LearnDash.

[@londonschoolofkarate570]

This is SOOOOO much clearer, better paced, and more accessible than a vide I was just watching from LearnDash covering this topic in 52minutes!!! Thank you

[@ankitind]

Adam, you are a life saviour. You have saved me so much of time, I can't expressed my gratitude enough. Thanks a lot. Please keep up the good work.

[@kymberleedellaluce]

Excellent training! Thank you so much. I appreciate the label change information you provided and didn't find that confusing at all. I just subscribed because this so good!

[@AR-pb2zh]

This is terrific news. Not quite ready to do this yet but very happy to see that it is now a feature. I was worried to have to integrate too many different types of plugins from different 3rd party creators. It's great to get a plugin like this from learndash that should integrate perfectly.

[@frost8503]

Thank you, Could you please do a video on Woocommerce and a monthly subscription based Course site?

[@Korkortssidan]

Great start by Learndash but handling the memberships from groups seems confusing. I think that they should have made a membership option outside of the groups.

[@tcrutcher]

I may have missed it, but what does the sign up process resemble for those who enroll in the group?

[@maribelmed]

As always you share excelent content with us!!! Thank you so much Adam!!!! .I just want to make a request and suggestion: Your next video about learndash should be about how to use Elementor for Learndash Integration Plugin PLEEEEEEASE!! There's no much practical content videos about how to use that new feature!

[@WPCrafter]

Yea I wanted to make that, but what they released was not that good TBH. But I hear that they are going to improve it, so when they do I will gladly cover it.

[@ketowithfriendst3886]

Did you get a response

[@levelclimbingvideos5819]

Dang Adam, you are fast! The update was only just announced. I hope they take into consideration your proposal (at 25:50) about having redirect pages.

[@choicecomms]

Very helpful, thanks a bunch my man!

[@techfairyrina]

what is about recurring ? for example Woo subscription how to connect it to membership in learndash ? ))

[@christianlecuyer6380]

Great video Adam :)

[@WPCrafter]

Thanks!

[@ladyofada]

Thanks Adam, really appreciate the content.

[@alantuttphotography]

I can see why you might want an auto-redirect for non-members, although I personally would get confused if a website did that to me. I prefer they way they did this, although it could be better to have different messages for different membership groups. For my use, I hope they add shortcodes to protect bits of content within a post or page.

[@empresariosderedes]

Thank you for the amazing video.... How do we set up the recurring payments? I got stuck there, because the enrol now button did not appear after choosing Recurring option.

[@oscarcreativedigital]

Hi, this is very helpful, thanks. 2 things, if you can help? 1. at 9.59 when editing the Membership page, the blue button still stays 'Group' when we have changed it to memberships - is there a way to fix this? 2. When a user clicks on Join Us for membership, my SureCart page is not linking and its not on the video. Thanks

[@BeEmpressified]

Adam, thanks again! Which would you suggest for using with Learndash, Astra or Kadence?

[@santiagoschamberger8975]

Hey, really good video. Thank you! I have a question: I sell courses. Those courses are available for users for a year. After that year, I offer a monthly subscription or membership to access all the materials. That's easy to do following your video. However, I want them to have access to all the courses they bought before the membership. Am I clear? They buy a course and have access to it for a year > after a year they buy the membership to continue having access to the materials > they should be able to see the course they bought before. How could I achieve this?

[@DanielFlefil]

yoo! where did you get that Sub count in the backround?

[@allisonkessler17]

Thanks for the great tutorial Adam!

[@raulisturizdacosta2696]

I fricking love you man

[@MarioBarretta]

Hello, it's all compatible with Elementor?

[@IamDoQtorNo]

Great content. Would i be able to setup multiple subscription options for membership, (ie 3, 6, 9, or 12 months) for clients to purchase?

[@yiiiiix]

is it ok to do this if for the single courses i'm using woocommerce with stripe integration? won't it bug or something?:(

[@denaadams]

I want to offer a special for my membership to buy 1st month get the second month free and then it renews monthly. Can I do that with learndash only? I have woocommerce and don't want to purchase woocommerce subscriptions yet. Is this possible?

[@kaiserobaldia7207]

This feature of learndash, works for selling course in bundle?

[@GabyAwad]

Great tutorial Adam thank you! Well I have Woocommerce for payments and can both co-exist without the need to buy WC plugin for subscriptions or membership?

[@sophiemulders]

Yes you just cant ask recurring payments. So the membership would be a 1time buy

[@stefanoferruggiara]

Awesome video as always! I have a question... but after subscribe... how the user can cancel the membership? And where he find it? In my learndash I don't see nothing under User Profile Page.

[@WalterZelhofer]

I love your videos. This is very exciting news!

[@areejabdu3125]

super perfect ,, thank u !

[@zeeshansiddiqui5801]

Can I upgrade or downgrade membership using this learndash ?

[@superchefliumaohsing]

If the membership expires after 30 days / 90 days / half year / annual, I see that the groups does not have that. Should I opt for a membership plugin instead?

[@jetbrains9043]

Great video! Congrats!

[@camkemissalinas8054]

thank so much!! greetings from merida yucatan mexico!!

[@joaquingarciaalonso8180]

hi adam. would you mind sharing why you dropped astra? i remember you used to use that theme for almost everything. thanks a lot.

[@SteveHilliarphotography]

I have TWO questions: Do you know if Learndash still works after 12 months if not renewed? ALSO is Learndash a better option than Teachable, (cloud options)? At this stage I only have one course available.

[@WPCrafter]

Oh yes, you can still use LearnDash, you just won't have access to support and updates. I do personally prefer something self hosted over those pricy hosted options like Teachable.

[@stephanieuy5499]

I created a group but the courses associated with it are not showing on the front end of my site. Please help

[@gregorydee8859]

long shot this Adam I have 3 memberships set up for various payment options monthly/quarterly/annually etc on one course but for some reason when someone subscribes they cant see any of the course content.. any ideas why not?

[@PHI72]

Very well explained! How does LD Memebeship deal with course duration? For example, I want to sell a course for with 3-months or 6-moths or a year validity, can I achieve it with current LD Membership? I am using s2membership to achieve it at the moment.

[@miguelh4750]

Hi Adam. How does this compare in ease of use and features vs. Learndash + Astra Theme + Elementor (page builder) ?

[@anasbenallal7807]

Hi, Adam .. can you please tell me how to customise links for each member

[@avalikesinemine]

Hi Adam, You mentioned that you will put a link to the video where you are showing how to make closed group with Woocommerce payment gateways. Can you point me where can I find this video? Thanks

[@sammymommy1195]

Hi Adam, I love your videos, thank you so much. I have a request please make a tutorial on how to build a credit system for membership.

[@gabrielapiccott3397]

Do this replace woocommerce suscription if I want yearly option and 3 payment option?

[@Mathkeeda]

Thankyou so much Sir

[@JonathanSymmonds]

Hi how does one restrict a course to say 25 members pers course and not more? WIth Learndash?

[@GabyAwad]

Is there a way to edit the group page using Elementor?

[@abdelouahedbenmhamed8291]

Thanks Adam for this tutorial. Is there a way to create a membership group as an Admin for a client (Teacher) and set him as Group Leader but never allow him add students to the group for free. It's like selling him a room on my website with open number of seats where he can talk to his students and offer them courses. But for the students to get to the group they need to enroll and pay a fee.

[@SubhanHamid]

In this new feature, can we set expired membership or group. The member would not be able to access the group if it is membership had been expired ?

[@shallwebr]

amazing tutorial! Thank you for share it!

[@magon3761]

Hi, I followed your SMTP setup video, and installed the WP SMTP plugin and dii all the MX record, SPF, DKIM and reverse records.. But unfortunately all my emails go to spam folders...can you advice or help? Majid, Thanks in advance

[@rohitrunwal8924]

Hello Sir.. Thanks for this wonderful update. Can you please make a video on how to make a Membership site for Learndash using Cartflows and Woocomerce? Thanks in advance.

[@gregorydee8859]

Hi Adam when you talk about memberships is this referring to one off payments, or recurring payments?

[@WPCrafter]

Either really.

[@gregorydee8859]

​@@WPCrafter Thanks Mark! I just want to say, I've just built a whole course with LearnDash and without your videos on the topic I would have been completely lost! Thank you for the through concise content its been so helpful!! I do have one further question on this approach feature here on this video. If I am looking to use subscriptions through learndash as you lay out here, how would I go about setting up Stripe for these purposes? I have the extension/add on downloaded and have test mode keys entered but not sure how the whole checkout page in stripe is formulated. Do you have any videos covering this by any chance?

[@WPCrafter]

@@gregorydee8859 LearnDash has inbuilt subscriptions (recurring payments) with Stripe built in.

[@joietan7983]

Can we have a course with 10 lesson, but only the first 2 lessons available to the free membership. Just like udemy. Thank you

[@WPCrafter]

Yes you can make certain lessons free.

[@Muslimminute]

Great as usual. I am reading that if one uses learndash and buddyboss together, it eats up server resources. I currently have siteground, do you recommend I move my hosting elsewhere?

[@Muslimminute]

@ILUMINA Publicações would love yo know what you decide. Not going to lie, love the way the plugin and theme look together. Would getting a more powerful host help with this? And do you know if it is the bb theme or plugin that use the most resoruces?

[@imaginationdevice]

i was going to ask what was the difference between an Lms plugin and a membership plugin ??

[@Nico180599]

Lms is learning managing system

[@nayadev8351]

Hi Adamcito! it is posible to add a course a start date?

[@ketowithfriendst3886]

Nayeli Parrsal yes watch his other video on building an online website

[@learnalong233]

It wasn't confusing at all with the membership and Group change. It was, however, confusing with the switch over to another account but then realizing that this is only for TESTING, Right? lol

[@DrJohnPollard]

I'm finding the LearnDash plugin seems to interfere with the Kadence Blocks? Have you noticed this?

[@WPCrafter]

Not at all. What seems to be going on? If you are on Facebook, Kadence has a Facebook Group to report issues. They have a support desk as well. facebook.com/groups/webcreatorcommunity/

[@DrJohnPollard]

@@WPCrafter I can definitely say that trying to follow your video with LearnDash enabled kept presenting choices that looked similar but with learndash titles. And i had another builder which was the one I thought you recommended by brain somebody, with a similar name. I deactivated learndash and deleted the other and it sort of works right, but i wonder if somehow my site is damaged now with the various coding that each of these softwares stuck into wordpress. Sorry, I can't abide Facebook.

[@DrJohnPollard]

From Kadence Tech Support. Are you using WordPress 5.5 beta? Or the Gutenberg plugin? it was recently updated to only include a few blocks in the inial input and you either have to search or click view more to see all the blocks. To further clarify Gutenberg is part of WordPress core. But there is also a plugin which you can install and that includes a different version of Gutenberg then what is in core. That version changes how the add blocks sowkrs. So I was asking if you were using that plugin or WordPress 5.5 beta which includes another version of Gutenberg then what is currently in core. If you answered yes to either of those questions then it would explain what you were seeing because "it was recently updated to only include a few blocks in the inital input".

[@learnalong233]

So I'm realizing here that I won't be able to establish a Monthly Membership as opposed to just a course membership - for some courses would be added the first month and others the 2nd month and so on. SAD.... Hopefully, LearnDash steps up their membership/group access features.

[@Tgk321]

Accelerators Academy??

[@claudecoteIAM]

There is no such settings in My Learndash, and according to the site, I have the latest version. I only post this here because LearnDash support is not very supportive. Anyone else missing this update?

[@WPCrafter]

Which version are you on? The version number?

[@claudecoteIAM]

@@WPCrafter Hello there! Nice to hear from you. It occurred to me after leaving the last comment, that - since I originally watched this video a few days ago - and then came back today to re-watch it today as a tutorial - I skipped over the first part where you changed the name from "Groups" to "Memberships". And that is why I got confused. I also finally figured out how to actually send a support ticket on the LearnDash website. But like WAY too many other companies on-line, they make it FAR too difficult to simply submit a ticket. It's a shame, that trend of support becoming less and less "supportive". But I GREATLY appreciate YOUR support. So, I figured out the issues that I was having. But thank you VERY much for checking back. It is an honor to get your personal attention. Keep Up The Excellent Work! P.S. Any thoughts on selling LearnDash courses with the Native PayPal support rather than WooCommerce or UpSell Plugin? I have tried the other two and now I'm almost ready to just go back to the bare bones LearnDash/PayPal integration. Thanks Again!

[@michaelmeekness2625]

PLEASE SIR... I’ve always wanted to beg you for this but I don’t know if you do see all my comments on your videos, PLEASE CAN YOU MAKE A VIDEO ON HOW TO BUILD A CRYPTO-CURRENCY EXCHANGE WEBSITE or a smart contract website or an ico landing page website with Wordpress or something... PLEASE 🙏🏾

[@JkeanOS]

Currently it no longer provides custom labels in settings, it's a shame :( Surely they saw your video and realized that people could do this and their membership and restrict content plugin decreased relevance and that is why they decided to remove the custom labels

[@PswACC]

This Membership feature is exciting. If Kadence can create the same layout that BuddyBoss uses for its course layout I would be impressed. Example: snipboard.io/6e1slq.jpg

[@kolitv231]

Please make a video on how to set up a dating site where members can chat to themselves in private chat for free

[@djivhokt]

V

[@champechilufya1458]

This is not ideal - free membership pro is better if you on budget

[@FamilyTravelingAdventures]

Is there a way to restrict certain posts or pages but not all?
