LifterLMS Labs

Description

LifterLMS Labs is a collection of experimental features to improve and enhance the functionality of the LifterLMS core

We’ve created this free LifterLMS add-on plugin in order to provide these optional features to the LifterLMS community which may or may not be useful to everyone.

Some labs will ultimately find their way into the LifterLMS Core, some may remain in LifterLMS Labs.

Quickly remove specific elements like course author, syllabus, and more without having to write any code. Documentation and more information.

Lifti: Divi Theme Compatibility

Enable LifterLMS compatibility with the Divi Theme and Page Builder. Documentation and more information.

Simple Branding

Customize the default colors of various LifterLMS elements. Documentation and more information.

Super Sidebars

Just tested the “Super Sidebars” widgets, works perfectly with x-theme, and all other things I have enabled. So does the “Simple Branding”, previously I had a custom CSS for this, but now I don’t have to use that. Thanks!
