WordPress has long been a great platform for that. With the selection of third-party Learning Management System (LMS) plugins, it’s even better! Here are five (5) of some of the best LMS WordPress plugins available for you to check out.
I’ve been watching this LMS space closely for the past few years. Played with them on occasion. My interest was reinvigorated recently by some plans I have in mind for right here, on Wordpreneur itself.
I’ve played with LifterLMS extensively (free for the basics!), and like it.. a lot. For what I have in mind, I still think it’s overkill though. Not necessarily because of the functionality and feature set it provides — you can never really get enough of that — but for the technical overhead this kind of software will bring.
Although I very well could run any of these solutions as “yet another plugin” on my base WordPress site on top of all the other plugins I’m already running, I really wouldn’t recommend it. These aren’t exactly tiny little utilities. I’d say run them as the focal site application, or set them up on a subsite — a separate WordPress installation on a subdomain, for instance.
But sure, you could run it as yet another plugin. Just realize and be prepared for what you’re getting into.
But here you go folks, five of the best LMS plugins for WordPress I’m aware of out there, both commercial and free. Check them out (in alphabetical order).
No idea which one is best. Maybe you should tell me.
Enjoy today’s featured selections!
