Getting Started With Drip Course Content

If you're using LearnDash to create an online course, you may consider using the Lesson Access Settings feature to drip your course content. This powerful tool allows you to release course content to your students on a schedule rather than all at once. This can help keep your students engaged and encourage them to complete the course.

In this video, we'll show you how to get started with Drip Course Content. We'll go over how to customize the release schedule for individual lessons or topics and even quizzes.

By the end of this video, you'll have a good understanding of how to use the Drip Course Content feature in LearnDash to create a more engaging and effective online course.

Dude you crush that video. Well done.

I'm designing a food accountability course that gives weekly assignments along with additional course material and tips for the week as a drip course.

I hadn't heard of learndash and now I'm considering it.

Thank you.

Super helpful! Also, is this a Trinidadian accent I'm hearing?

Is it possible to allow lesson access based on completion of previous lessons?

For example Lesson 2 is only available after the user has completed Lesson 1.

Questions:

1. Can it be a membership, where I'm adding content over time that drips out for them every month? In other words, not all the course content is there at the beginning of the purchase.

2. Will LD send out a notification that says the new content has dripped out?

I don't see any responses to any of these questions. That's concerning. Not sure I'll get a response, but if anyone has encountered this same issue, please let me know what you did to resolve it: I've set the drip content per this video, however, when I view the page I can still click on let's say lesson 7, although I am only on lesson 2, and lesson 7 actually opens up as if I can take that lesson now. What good is drip content if they can click on a future lesson and take it? How do I prevent that from happening? (this is when they can see all the lessons below on the main page once they've logged in after paying.)

I set the lesson to be available 2 days after buying the course, the next one on the 3rd day, etc. Is there any filter so that each of these lessons appears, for example, at 7 am and not after 24 hours?

Hi. Do you know if there’s a way to add 2 price levels to a course; say $399 & $699. If a student selects $399 course it stops at a certain point; and tells them they need to upgrade to get the full course?

I have a skincare training and I would not want to teach the full course to those who do not utilize my device as there is another distributor that sells a very similar device. I do not want to show the actual video tutorials on how to use our device unless they own our device.

Next question: If someone pauses their membership, will they lose access to all the previous material they already covered or is there a way for them to pick up where they left off?
