What it does
Running paid courses means keeping track of who should see what. If you sell memberships with Restrict Content Pro and teach with LearnDash, handling enrollments by hand gets tedious as members join, change plans or leave. This add-on links the two systems. You assign courses to membership levels, and access follows each member's subscription status, while your LearnDash courses keep working the way they normally do for students.
Restrictions can apply at several levels, covering whole courses as well as lessons, topics and quizzes. When a member upgrades, downgrades or cancels, course access is granted or removed automatically. Payments and plans are handled through Restrict Content Pro's own membership management and payment gateways. The plugin suits instructors, training providers and course creators who offer exclusive courses or premium materials to subscribers.
Best for
- Online instructors selling course access through memberships
- Training providers offering tiered subscription plans
- LearnDash sites already using Restrict Content Pro

Questions about LearnDash Restrict Content Pro
Do I need both LearnDash and Restrict Content Pro?
Yes. This add-on is an integration between the two. LearnDash provides the courses, and Restrict Content Pro handles membership levels and payments, while the add-on connects course access to those memberships.
Can I protect individual lessons instead of whole courses?
Yes. Access can be controlled at several levels, including full courses, lessons, topics and quizzes. That lets you keep some material open and reserve other parts for members on specific plans.
What happens when a member cancels their subscription?
Course access updates automatically. When members cancel, downgrade or upgrade, the plugin enrolls them in or removes them from the linked courses based on their new membership status.
Can I see how members are using my courses?
The plugin includes reporting on membership and course engagement, which helps you understand how your members interact with the courses tied to their plans.
