Overview

LearnDash sites often look the same out of the box, and changing that usually means writing custom code. Design Upgrade Pro for LearnDash puts the styling controls in the WordPress Customizer instead. It detects whether your site uses the newer LearnDash template or the Legacy one and shows the settings that apply to your setup.

The plugin works with most WordPress themes, including BuddyBoss, so course styling stays consistent with the rest of your site. You can adjust buttons, fonts, colors, progress bars, navigation menus and profile pages, and use edge-to-edge content widths for page builders. It suits anyone who wants a LearnDash site to look clean and match their brand.

Features

  • Over 100 design options: Adjust buttons, fonts, progress bars, profile information and many other LearnDash elements to give your learning environment a branded look.
  • Automatic template detection: The plugin recognizes whether you use the newer LearnDash template or the Legacy one, and presents the customization settings that fit your setup.
  • Enhanced course grid styling: Build balanced course grids with equal height columns, customizable borders, shadows, hover effects and ribbons that show course status.
  • Course navigation controls: Style navigation menus with your choice of colors, line separators and background styles, and set up expand and collapse behavior for course content lists.
  • Custom focus mode layouts: Use edge-to-edge content widths and animation options to create distraction-free lessons that work well with page builders.
  • Progress bar styles: Pick striped, animated, rounded or square bars, set colors and heights, and hide the completion text if you prefer a cleaner look.
  • Login and registration popup: Change the modal window's colors, opacity and form styles, and remove elements you do not need from the popup.
  • Profile page display options: Show or hide profile details, avatars, quizzes, assignments and course search so the profile page shows only what learners need.

Best for

  • LearnDash course creators who want a custom look
  • Sites running the BuddyBoss theme
  • Agencies styling eLearning sites for clients
