I was wondering if that was possible, David! I haven’t watched the video yet, but I’m excited to see how you do this.

Very Interesting and light weight compared to other LMS ... But can you still make this course plugin remain password protected for various types of students? Say with a membership plugin tool like WP Fusion? Thanks for great videos. Newly subscribed and looking forward to binge watching your channel.

[Matumark]

Thanks for the training! How do you restrict access to that course page? :)

[sewandletgo]

Do you know if this is possible in the divi theme?

[adrianbending]

Thanks for sharing this useful insight.
What if I'm using another theme, can I create custom templates for single post types without kadence pro addon which allows for creating hooked elements?

You mentioned the display of subpages, but didn't show ANY way of doing that. Without this, how can you call a group of pages a course? At least show ONE way of doing this.

It is very interesting. I wonder how to monetise this courses/post

[phillippia]

You should probably change the title to “Broad Overview of ACF” or “Beginner Crash Course of Simple Online Courses”. People would probably less upset after spending 20 minutes of their time here.

So, you trade one plugin for another? Hmm.

I have questions that I’d like to ask that aren’t public. Can I email you?

[walterbyrd]

You lost me when you went to the pro kadence theme. What if I don't have that theme?
