Welcome to LearnDash Dashboard

LearnDash Dashboard gives your LearnDash-powered website a beautiful, fully-featured frontend dashboard — so instructors, students, and group leaders never have to touch the WordPress admin.

Instead of navigating complex backend screens, everyone gets a clean, purpose-built interface that shows them exactly what they need, nothing more.

Who Is It For?

LearnDash Dashboard works for every type of user on your site:

• Site owners and admins — manage everything from one place: all courses, all students, all reports, all settings
• Instructors — create and manage courses, track student progress, handle earnings, and communicate with students
• Group leaders — oversee their assigned student groups, run reports, and send communications
• Students — track their learning progress, view quiz results, download certificates, and manage assignments

What Can You Do With It?

For Instructors

• Create and edit courses, lessons, topics, quizzes, and questions — right from the frontend, no admin access needed
• Duplicate entire courses with one click to save time building new content
• Track how your students are progressing through your courses
• Send emails and private messages directly to your students
• View your earnings, request payouts, and monitor commission history
• Host live Zoom meetings from inside the dashboard (optional)

For Students

• See all enrolled courses in one place and pick up right where you left off
• Review your quiz attempts, scores, and detailed results
• Download certificates for courses you’ve completed
• Submit and track assignments
• View your personal activity timeline

For Group Leaders

• Manage group membership — add or remove students easily
• Run reports on group performance and course completion
• Generate enrollment codes to invite new members
• Send messages and emails to everyone in your groups

For Admins

• Full visibility across all instructors, students, groups, and courses
• Site-wide reports and insights with visual charts
• Bulk enrollment tools — enroll or unenroll multiple students at once
• Manage instructor applications and payout requests
• Control exactly which features each role can see

What Makes It Different?

LearnDash Dashboard puts a full course management workspace on the frontend of your site. Instructors get the tools they need without admin access. Students get a clean learning hub. You get a professional LMS experience your users will love.

How the Dashboard Works

After you install the plugin, you create a single page on your site and add the LearnDash Dashboard shortcode to it. That page becomes the dashboard. Every user who visits it sees a personalized view based on their role — instructors see course management tools, students see their learning activity, and so on.

You control which sections each role can access through the plugin settings.
