Connect LearnDash to Gist

LearnDash is one of the most popular WordPress plugins to help you create online courses.

LearnDash helps you create course content and restrict access, but it doesn’t include a ton of marketing or segmentation features, which is probably why you’re using Gist alongside LearnDash.

With WP Fusion, you can connect LearnDash to Gist to help you create targeted segments and optimize your marketing efforts.

WP Fusion creates a LearnDash — Gist integration in several different ways. You can:

• Apply Gist tags based on student actions.
• Restrict access to courses, lessons, or topics based on a user’s tags in Gist.
• Automatically enroll a user in a course or add them to a LearnDash group when you add a tag to that user in Gist.
• Sync answers from a quiz in LearnDash to custom fields in Gist.

Setting up Gist with LearnDash and WordPress is easy. All you do is install WP Fusion and authorize your WordPress site with Gist:

Then, you can start setting up your LearnDash — Gist integration.

WP Fusion will automatically add new students to Gist, and you can also set up a number of other features to help you segment your students.

Apply Tags Based on Student Actions

One of the most powerful features in the Gist — LearnDash integration is the ability to tag users in Gist based on actions they take in your course.

For example, you can apply new tags when a user:

• Starts a course, lesson, or topic.
• Completes a course, lesson, or topic.
• Passes or fails a quiz.

You can also use tags to track a user’s course progress, like the last lesson or course that they’ve completed.

By applying these tags, you can create laser-focused segments and set up marketing automation to create a better experience and sell more courses.

Restrict Access

With WP Fusion, you can also restrict access to course content using tags in Gist.

You can restrict access to courses, lessons, and topics and automatically redirect users without the required tags to another page (like your sales page).

Automatic Enrollment

You can automatically enroll a student in a course or LearnDash group just by applying a tag to that user in Gist.

Once you link a course or group with a tag from Gist, users will automatically be added to that course/group when the tag is applied:

If you remove that tag in Gist, users will automatically be un-enrolled.

With WP Fusion, you can optimize both your course and marketing efforts by connecting LearnDash to Gist.
