What we connect

The same shape of work across all four LMS plugins, adapted to how each one stores courses and progress.

Course activity in the feed

Enrollments, lesson completions and certificates posted to the BuddyPress activity stream as they happen.

Cohorts as BuddyPress groups

Course access, discussion and group membership tied together so a cohort behaves like one group, not two separate systems.

Progress on the member profile

Course progress, completed certificates and instructor status shown as fields on the BuddyPress or BuddyBoss profile.

Gamification tied to learning

Points, badges and ranks awarded for course milestones, not just forum activity.

Reign theme LMS add-ons

Extending or customizing Reign's own LearnDash, Tutor LMS, Sensei or LifterLMS add-ons for a themed learning experience.

Reign LearnDash add-on

A migration between LMS plugins

Moving courses, enrollments and progress from one LMS to another without losing a learner's history.

What we integrate, by LMS

An honest comparison. All four connect to BuddyPress; the differences are in what each one is built on.

  • From the moment we partnered with Wbcom Designs in 2016, they have been nothing short of phenomenal, becoming not just our go-to website developers but also treasured friends. Their team, led by the incredibly kind and competent Varun, has saved our operations on more occasions than we can count, proving their indispensability time and again. Honestly, we would not be where we are without Varun! What sets Wbcom Designs apart is not just their exceptional coding and website building skills, which are indeed the best we've ever encountered, but also their remarkable work ethic and dedication. They are always there when we need them, no matter the request or time. This level of availability and commitment is rare and has been instrumental in our company's growth and smooth digital operations. Their expertise is vast, covering all the bases and then some, ensuring that every solution is not just effective but also innovative. Varun and his team have a way of making complex technical solutions understandable and accessible, which has been a huge relief and support to us over the years. We are endlessly impressed by how Wbcom Designs not only meets but consistently exceeds our expectations. They go above and beyond in every project, large or small, demonstrating a genuine care for our success and well-being. Their knowledgeable guidance and friendly support have been pivotal in our journey, and it's clear they invest not just their time but their hearts into their work. In a world where genuine, reliable, and high-quality web development services can be hard to find, Wbcom Designs shines as a beacon of excellence. We cannot imagine going anywhere else for our web development needs. To Varun and the entire Wbcom Designs team: thank you for being such an integral part of our story. Your work ethic, expertise, and kindness have made all the difference.

  • We were having a critical issue with our website. We were able to quickly get through to WBcom Designs and they worked with us to give them what they needed to find the problem and correct it. I highly recommend their team and especially Pallavi.

  • Fantastic 6 star support. I wanted to setup a membersite and tried many solutions. I contacted Wbcom for BuddyX and tried the theme with Buddypress. I am not a webdesigner or a coder, but had a requirement that was not standaard. I contacted WBcom and Pallavi helped me from start to finish with snippets to get my requirement working. Thanks Pallavi for your patience and support.

Questions

Do you support LMS plugins other than these four?
These four cover almost every BuddyPress LMS community we see. If yours is different, tell us which one and we will say honestly whether we can connect it.
Will the integration survive an LMS or BuddyPress update?
We build against each plugin's own hooks and APIs rather than editing its files, so updates do not silently break the connection.
Can you migrate an existing LMS community?
Yes, including moving learners, progress and certificates from one LMS to another, or from a different community platform onto BuddyPress with the same LMS in place.
Does this work with your care plans?
Yes. Once the integration ships, ongoing maintenance can move to a quoted plan or one of the four care plan tiers.
