This plugin is for WordPress site owners running LearnDash, LifterLMS, Tutor LMS, or LearnPress courses (or standalone educators) who need to issue certificates.

  • Drag-and-drop certificate designer

  • QR code verification
  • Public verification page
  • Unlimited templates and certificates
  • Automatic award triggers
  • Manual certificate issuance with backdating
  • Revoke and reinstate certificates

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about PressPrimer Certificate – Certificate Designer & Course Certification for Your LMS

It's genuinely free and not locked down. PressPrimer Certificate includes unlimited templates, unlimited certificates, the full designer, plugin integrations, public verification, and email delivery in the free version. Optional Educator, School, and Enterprise add-ons add features such as custom fonts, bulk awarding, issuing organizations, and an audit log; the Upgrade page under Certificates compares them, and the free plugin never loses a feature.
No. PressPrimer Certificate is fully functional with no LMS installed; you can design certificates and issue them manually to any user. When PressPrimer Quiz, PressPrimer Assignment, LearnDash, LifterLMS, Tutor LMS, or LearnPress is detected, automatic issuance triggers become available.
Yes. Quiz pass thresholds and Assignment grades are included triggers with their own merge fields, so a certificate can show the score a learner earned.
Every certificate can include a unique credential ID and/or a QR code. Scanning the QR code, clicking it, or typing the ID into your site's verification page shows whether the credential is valid, revoked, or expired, along with the recipient name, what it was awarded for, and the issue date. No account is needed to verify.
Three ways. Each certificate is emailed as a PDF the moment it is issued. Learners can also visit a My Certificates page you create with the included block or [ppcert_my_certificates] shortcode, which lists everything they have earned with verify and download links, status filters, and sorting. And every certificate has its own shareable view page with the certificate image and a PDF download.
Yes. Add the Certificate Link block (or the [ppcert_certificate_link] shortcode) to a course, lesson, topic, or quiz page, or to any page where you have placed a PressPrimer quiz or assignment with its block or shortcode. Each logged-in learner sees one button that downloads their own certificate for that item (you can point it at the certificate page or the verification page instead), and nothing at all until they have earned it. If the learner has earned it more than once, the newest certificate is linked. Add a message in the block's settings and it appears in a panel with the button, only when the button shows, so you can congratulate the learner and explain the certificate without that text stranding on the page for everyone else. Point the block at a specific quiz, assignment, or post by ID, or at a template, when the page itself is not the source.
Yes. Valid and expired certificates show a Download PDF button on the verification page, so an employer or registrar can keep a copy. Revoked certificates do not offer a download.
Nothing changes for existing certificates. Each certificate snapshots its design and data at issue time, so a certificate always looks exactly as it did the day it was earned. That includes the display name: a certificate keeps the name it was issued with. Template edits only affect future issuance.
Yes. On a template's Award tab, choose an "Any" option instead of a specific course, quiz, or lesson, and that one trigger awards for every item of that type (lessons and topics are scoped to a course you pick). Pair it with a certificate display name like "{{source.course_title}} Certificate" and each certificate is named after what earned it in the My Certificates list, on the verification page, and in emails.
Yes. In any text element, put the cursor where the value belongs and use the Insert Merge Field button. The line centers, wraps, and styles as one piece, so "Awarded to {{recipient.display_name}} on [date]" behaves like a single line of text. Merge fields also work in the certificate email's subject and body.
