Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Course Tracker – Simple WordPress Lesson Progress & LMS Navigation

No. Course Tracker is completely standalone — it's not an add-on for any LMS platform. It uses your WordPress menu system and shortcodes to build your own lightweight learning platform directly inside WordPress.

Course Tracker connects to the native WordPress Menu Builder to create your course structure. Each menu item (lesson) becomes part of a visual course navigation panel. When a student marks a lesson as complete, a checkmark automatically appears next to that lesson.

No coding is required. Course Tracker is 100% shortcode-driven, so you can insert navigation, progress bars, and completion buttons anywhere. It works seamlessly with Classic Editor, Gutenberg, Bricks Builder, Elementor, and most other page builders.

You only need to use the course navigation shortcode ([ctrkr_nav]) and the complete button shortcode ([ctrkr_complete_button]) for the plugin to function effectively.

Yes. Several shortcodes support customizable text attributes, allowing you to change wording such as “lessons,” “modules,” “sections,” or “steps” to better match your course structure.

Yes, you can. But we recommend creating a course or lesson template in your page builder so your shortcodes appear consistently across all lessons. Otherwise, you'll need to insert shortcodes manually on each page, which isn't ideal. For more about templates, please visit rankbydesign.com and click LMS for video examples on building a course in Bricks Builder. More guides for other themes are coming soon, as Course Tracker works independently of any theme.

Yes! The plugin includes built-in styling controls to customize colors, spacing, active states, and checkmark styles. You can also fine-tune the look using the WordPress Customizer or theme CSS. Need help matching your site's design? Reach out anytime — we're happy to help.

All student progress is stored privately in your own WordPress database and never sent to any external service. Students can also export/import their own progress files if needed.

Yes! Course Tracker is designed to work with any modern WordPress theme or page builder. Because it uses shortcodes and menus instead of theme-specific templates, it adapts cleanly to your layout.

Yes. You can track progress for up to 20 users (including the admin) for free. For larger sites or unlimited users, you can upgrade with a small one-time fee, which helps support ongoing improvements and new features.
