LearnDash Pricing Explained: Plugin vs Cloud vs Add-Ons

By

On December 13, 2023

In LearnDash Setup

Ever since LearnDash was purchased by LiquidWeb/StellarWP in September of 2021, LearnDash pricing has become more complex. You used to just have a single price for the LearnDash plugin license per year. All official LearnDash add-ons were included for free, except for ProPanel, which was included on the second and third highest plans.

Now the LearnDash pricing page has many options, and it’s not immediately clear what you’re paying for. We’re here to make it easy:

  • How much does LearnDash cost?
  • What plans are available with LearnDash?
  • Which LearnDash add-ons are included in your license?
  • How is LearnDash Cloud different from the LearnDash plugin?
  • …and many more of your LearnDash pricing questions, answered.

Updated for 2024

If you’re asking yourself, “How do I create a free LMS website with WordPress?,” you’ve come to the right place. We’ve researched & tested out all 10 of the free WordPress LMS plugins on the market, including feature lists, free vs. pro comparisons, design, integrations, and more. Currently, I think 7 are worth considering, and the remaining 3 have more work to do.

It’s worth nothing, all of the free WordPress LMS plugins on this page are very limited in features. If you’re serious about building an online learning site, you should definitely consider paying for a WordPress LMS plugin. With the free versions of these plugins, you’ll likely hit roadblocks as you start to build out your courses.

Design Upgrade Pro for LearnDash is Now Compatible with BuddyBoss! 🎉

April 20, 2022: Compatible with BuddyBoss 🎉
As of April 20, 2022, our Design Upgrade Pro for LearnDash plugin is now compatible with the BuddyBoss theme.

Feel free to read on if you’d like to know how Design Upgrade Pro for LearnDash versions 2.18 and below worked with BuddyBoss. But if you’re using BuddyBoss and would like to use our plugin, we highly recommend you update to version 2.19 or later for the best experience.

TLDR: Some people use Design Upgrade Pro for LearnDash with BuddyBoss successfully. It can be done, but it depends on a) if you’re using BuddyBoss platform, BuddyBoss theme, or both, and b) which LearnDash elements you use, and c) which Design Upgrade options you’re using.

In most cases, it’s the theme that isn’t compatible. If you’re just using the platform plugin, most (if not all) of Design Upgrade Pro for LearnDash’s features will work as expected.

I was able to write some CSS to achieve it, but there is one small caveat.

By

On January 17, 2021

In Tutorials

In LearnDash, when you collapse the the Focus Mode sidebar navigation, you might still see the vertical scrollbar. This is partly because of the CSS that LearnDash uses for this section, but also partly the responsibility of the browser you’re using, and the settings you have set for your browser.

Regardless, there’s a way to always hide that scrollbar in the LearnDash Focus Mode sidebar when it is collapsed. Here’s the simple CSS to make that happen.
