The leading WordPress LMS plugin — turns any WordPress site into a full course platform you fully own.
Visit LearnDashSummary
LearnDash is the go-to choice for creators who already run a WordPress site and want to keep everything self-hosted rather than move to a hosted platform like Teachable. It's genuinely powerful (drip content, certificates, quizzes, WooCommerce integration for selling), but it inherits WordPress's maintenance burden — you're responsible for hosting, plugins, and updates.
