LearnDash

Turbocharge eLearning with Infusionsoft Membership TechnologyLearnDash is a feature-rich WordPress LMS that provides cutting edge elearning methodology for WordPress based web sites. In addition to the plugin itself, the company provides practical and experience driven guidance for setting up online courses. LearnDash has become the most trusted WordPress LMS plugin for major universities, continuing education providers, and entrepreneurs world-wide.

ActiveCampaign

ActiveCampaign is a web-based system that aims to help marketers send fewer emails while still achieving better results by giving them the marketing automation and automated sales CRM features they need to send intelligent, targeted automations.

LearnDash and ActiveCampaign

By coordinating ActiveCampaign’s tags and workflow automation with LearnDash’s interactive learning based system, you can use:

The Elements of a Course

Your training content is naturally broken into courses. Each course is like a single class or subject material. Courses consist of lessons, topics and quizzes. A course cannot be marked complete until the lessons, topics are completed and all quizzes are passed.

ActiveCampaign Integration

Memberium provides an easy to use integration dialog that lets you control what happens as each component of a course is completed.

Course completion is somewhat unique in that it happens automatically when all the prerequisites for the course complete, and is not a separate action.

As each component ( Lessons, Topics, Quizzes and Courses ) complete, you can instruct Memberium to do the following actions in your Infusionsoft App.

Campaign Builder API Goals
You can use Campaign Builder goals to start process and marketing workflow activities in Infusionsoft when this component is completed.  This duplicates Actionsets to some degree, and is the preferred system to use for automation.

Tags Added or Removed
You can add or remove tags from the contact record upon completion.

Legacy Actionsets Run
Like Campaign Builder goals, actionsets can be used to start workflows in Infusionsoft, however this is a legacy solution and in general isn’t recommended.

Next Page to redirect to
After a course element is completed, you can control what page they are sent to next.

Auto-Enrollment
You can easily enroll and unenroll students in a course automatically using tags.

Auto-EnrollmentYou can easily enroll and unenroll students in a course automatically using tags.

Quiz ActionsYou can run automations and apply tags based on passing or failing of quizzes.

Graduation Texts
You can combined LearnDash’s Graduation Text with Memberium shortcodes not only to produce personalized output, but to run specific actions / goals / tags depending on the user’s score.  Graduation texts offer up to 15 different responses depending on the percentage completion of the student.

Enrollment, Visibility and Access

In most common WordPress elements (Pages, Posts, etc) access is controlled by Memberium’s access controls, which control visibility of an item.

LearnDash adds an additional concept called “Enrollment”.  In order for someone to use a Course, it is not sufficient to give them “visibility” through Memberium; that only controls whether or not they can see the course.  You must also enroll them in the course.

In the Memberium LearnDash course controls is a setting called “AutoEnroll Tags”.  The autoenroll tags are a comma separated list of tags controlling who is enrolled in the course.

If this field is left blank, no actions are taken on this course.

If the field contains one or more tags, then the courses are scanned during login and any courses with auto-enrollment tags held by the are automatically enrolled during the login.  If the user has NONE of the auto-enrollment tags, then the course is un-enrolled.  If the field is empty then no automatic actions happen during that login.  Auto-enrollment tags are currently applied at login only.

Types of Courses

LearnDash courses come in four types, Open, Closed, Free, Buy Now and Recurring.

For Memberium you want to use either Open if you want all users to be automatically treated as if they are enrolled in the course, or Closed if you want to control enrollment on a member by member basis.

Shortcodes

LearnDash provides a number of useful shortcodes for your site:

[learndash_course_progress]
This shortcode is documented to only work on course pages, however you can actually place it anywhere, and tell it which course’s progress to display.  Simply use the undocumented parameter “course_id” to indicate which course you want to display progress for.  The course_id is a number, if you need help finding your course’s Id, give us a shout at support and we’ll help you.  Here’s an example:

[learndash_course_progress course_id=”1016″]

[ld_profile]
Displays user’s enrolled courses, course progress, quiz scores, and achieved certificates.

[user_groups]
This shortcode displays the list of groups users are assigned to as users or leaders. 

LearnDash Features

This setting determines whether or not your site will allow you to use the autologin feature. The Autologin feature is inherently less secure because it replaces the user’s password with a simple number which can be easily brute-forced or guessed. Once someone obtains the Contact Id and the user’s email address they can continue to access the account even if the user changes the password.

Memberium extends WordPress’s quick editor to make it easy to make minor changes to your pages and posts one at a time without entering the post editor. This is especially useful when making many small individual changes to posts from the post list.

Memberium features a bulk editor to make it easy to assign permissions to your pages and posts en masse. This is especially useful when migrating from another membership system. In order to use the Bulk Editor, go to the Pages or Posts list screen

Memberium for ActiveCampaign provides an out-of-the-box integration with Ninja Forms, which enables you to use the familiar and easy to use shortcode system. You may be familiar with this feature as “Autofill”.

Memberium can be configured to keep a record of login sessions for each user. The system collects the login date, IP address and user name. This data is stored in a database table that you can access through normal tools. Memberium also uses the login log to track how many IP addresses have been logged in from for each user.

Memberium’s integration with LifterLMS makes it easy to protect and sell courses through ActiveCampaign. LifterLMS does have built-in course protection, but its lack of integration with ActiveCampaign makes it impossible to sell the course and automatically grant access to it using ActiveCampaign. That’s where Memberium comes in.

This guide will show you how to connect Memberium, WooCommerce, and ActiveCampaign using ActiveWoo.

Memberium for ActiveCampaign comes with a password generator Webhook that will allow you to generate a random password for your users in ActiveCampaign. This password can be generated when your users signup, purchase a membership on your site, when a tag is added, and many such other situations. If the user already has a password in ActiveCampaign, then that password won’t get overwritten.
So here’s a step-by-step process to generate password for new users in ActiveCampaign.

This tutorial will come in very handy if you’re thinking to allow your users to use the same password on multiple sites running on Memberium for ActiveCampaign. So without any further ado, let’s start.

Memberium’s integration with GamiPress allows you to integrate your site’s gamification with ActiveCamapign to run powerful automation.

Memberium’s Content Protection Box allows you to protect your content through simple, intuitive means.

You can protect your content with a combination of various controls – active membership, tags, logged in status of a viewer, and contact IDs. Additionally, you can combine these conditions for more complex protections.

Once you’ve determined that a viewer may not view a page, you can then decide how to handle that restricted page. You can hide the page as if it doesn’t exist, show an excerpt/summary if your theme supports that, or simply redirect the viewer to another page.

This guide should give you a better understanding of the capabilities and use of the Content Protection Box

It’s not a difficult transition, and Memberium is already compatible with the OptimizePress theme. We offer support and guidance, however we don’t offer “done for you” service. The size of your site and number of your users will indicate how big the effort is.

The standard WordPress login page isn’t terribly attractive, or compatible with theme and brand design. It’s not uncommon to want to improve the login experience. Memberium provides a way to generate standard WordPress login forms on your site on any page you wish.

Membership levels can be created easily using the Memberium Dashboard. During initial setup we offer to do this free for you, but there’s no reason you can’t make or change your own membership levels yourself. This guide will walk you through the steps.

This function is used to create a single tag. You can use these tags for anything, including creating a membership level.

To create the tag set, perform the following steps.

1. Enter the name of the new tag into the input box. We recommend keeping the tag names short and simple.

2. Click the Create Button to create the new tag.

This function is used to create a series of tag that can be used for dripping content.

To create the group of drip tags, perform the following steps.

1. Enter the name of the new tag into the input box. We recommend keeping the tag names short and simple. Each tag will use this name at the beginning and add the tag ID# to the end of the tag name. (For example, Tag1, Tag2, Tag3)

2. Enter the starting number in the “Start” box. This number will be used on the first tag created. In the above example, the start number would have been “1”

3. Enter the last number in the sequence of tags to create. In the above example, the number would have been “3”

4. Click the Create Button to create the new tags.

This function is used to create a set of tags for use in defining a membership level. Once the tags are created, the tags will be assigned to a membership level.

To create the tag set, perform the following steps.

1. Enter the name of the new membership level into the input box. This name will be used both to name the membership level and to name the tags that it creates. We recommend keeping the tag names short and simple.

2. By default, this function will create one tag. You can optionally create the PAYF, SUSP, and CANC tags, by checking the box “Include PAYF/SUSP/CANC.”

3. Click the Create Button to create the tags.
