What it does
Course creators who also run workshops, webinars or training sessions often end up handling two systems separately. Someone signs up for an event, and then an admin has to add that person to the matching course by hand. This plugin removes that step by tying event registration to LearnDash access, so attendees land in the right course or group as soon as they register.
You set it up from the event itself. While editing an event in The Events Calendar, you pick the LearnDash course or group that attendees should join. Virtual events can be linked to courses as well, which suits live webinars and online sessions that sit alongside self-paced lessons. It fits corporate training, community education and multi-session courses that mix scheduled events with course content.
Best for
- LearnDash sites that run workshops or training events
- Educators hosting live webinars linked to online courses
- Organizations running corporate or community education programs
Features
Automatic course enrollment
Attendees who register for an event are enrolled into the LearnDash course you assign to it, with no manual enrollment needed afterward.
Automatic group enrollment
Assign a LearnDash group to an event so registrants are added to that group, which helps with cohort or team-based learning.
Course and group fields on events
Choose the linked course or group directly on the event edit screen, keeping event setup and course access in one place.
Virtual event support
Connect virtual events to LearnDash courses so live webinars and interactive online sessions tie into the learning material.
Account creation for attendees
When a new user account is created for an attendee, it is given a randomly generated password by default.

Questions about LearnDash The Events Calendar
Which plugins do I need for this to work?
The plugin connects LearnDash with The Events Calendar, so both need to be active on your site. You create events in The Events Calendar and courses or groups in LearnDash, then link them together on each event.
Will attendees get access to the course automatically?
Yes. When someone registers for an event that has a course or group assigned, they are enrolled into it automatically. This saves you from adding each attendee to the course by hand after registration.
Can I use it with online webinars?
Yes. The plugin supports virtual events, so you can link a webinar or other live online session to a LearnDash course. That lets remote attendees move from the live session into the related course content.
Can one event enroll people into a group instead of a course?
Yes. Each event can be linked to a LearnDash course or a LearnDash group. Group enrollment works well when you want attendees placed together, such as a training cohort or a company team.
Is LearnDash The Events Calendar free?
The code of LearnDash The Events Calendar is licensed under the GPL, so anyone may use, change and share it. GPL Feast is a paid service: a plan or a single purchase gives you the download and automatic updates. The developer's own support, licence key and online services are not included.
