About the Integration

The developers behind LearnDash have designed and developed an integration with Paid Memberships Pro that will allow you to:

  1. Associate one or more courses with a Paid Memberships Pro Membership Level.
  2. Allow users who purchase a membership level to be auto-enrolled into any given course.

This integration will require you to have Paid Memberships Pro and LearnDash installed and active on your site, as well as the Integration Add On.

Restricting Custom Post Types

LearnDash uses Custom Post Types (CPT) to create various types of course content. You can use the Custom Post Types Add On as an alternative to their integration to protect LearnDash CPTs by membership level. We explore this method in more detail in the How to Manage Courses with Paid Memberships Pro article. The article includes a video demo on our recommended method to protect LMS course content with PMPro.

As long as your LMS plugin of choice uses Custom Post Types, you can integrate it with PMPro using the Custom Post Types Add On.


Paid Memberships Pro integrates with several other LMS plugins including TutorLMS. See the full list of third-party eLearning/LMS plugins that are integrated with Paid Memberships Pro »
