Do I need a plugin to do drip feeding?

You don’t need to purchase an additional plugin to enable drip-feeding lessons in LearnDash, as this feature is built directly into LearnDash LMS. You can easily schedule the release of lessons based on time intervals after a student enrolls or set them for specific calendar dates.

To enable lesson drip-feeding, please follow these steps:

1. Navigate to LEARNDASH LMS > LESSONS.
2. Click on the lesson you want to edit.
3. Go to the Settings tab at the top of the page.
4. Locate the section titled “Lesson Access Settings.”

You have the following options:

• Immediately (default): The lesson is made available as soon as the user is enrolled in the course.

  Enrollment-based: The lesson will be available X days after the user enrolls in the course.

  • Note: If you set “1 Day,” it means 24 hours from enrollment, not the next day at midnight. Similarly, “2 Days” means 48 hours, and so on.
• Specific date: The lesson will be available on a specified date.
