1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Course Enrollment Automation

To automate student registration in LearnDash courses, you first need to access Pabbly Connect. Start by visiting the Pabbly website and navigating to the Pabbly Connect section. If you’re a new user, click on ‘Sign Up for Free’ to create your account, which takes just a couple of minutes.

Once you have an account, log in to your Pabbly Connect dashboard. Here, you can create a workflow that will facilitate the integration between WordPress and LearnDash. The first step is to click on the ‘+’ icon to create a new workflow, naming it ‘Course Enrollment Automation’.

2. Setting Up Triggers in Pabbly Connect

After naming your workflow, you will set up a trigger in Pabbly Connect. Click on the trigger window and select WordPress as the application. Choose the trigger event as ‘User Registered’. This means that whenever a new user registers on your WordPress site, it will trigger the workflow to enroll them in a LearnDash course.

• Select WordPress from the application list.
• Choose the trigger event ‘User Registered’.
• Copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect.

Next, you need to configure the WP Webhooks plugin in your WordPress dashboard. Install the plugin if you haven’t already, then navigate to Settings > WP Webhooks. From there, select ‘Send Data’ and add your copied webhook URL. This establishes the connection between your WordPress site and Pabbly Connect.

3. Testing the Integration with Pabbly Connect

To ensure that the integration works, you need to test it by creating a new user in WordPress. Navigate to the Users section, click on ‘Add New’, and fill in the necessary details like username, email, and role. For example, create a user named ‘Adam Smith’ with a specified email address.

Once the user is created, Pabbly Connect will capture the details of the new user. You will see the user data reflected in your Pabbly Connect dashboard, confirming that the trigger is functioning correctly.

• Create a new user in WordPress.
• Verify that the user details appear in Pabbly Connect.
• Ensure that the trigger is activated.

With the user details captured, you can now proceed to enroll the user in a specific LearnDash course.

4. Enrolling Users in LearnDash via Pabbly Connect

Next, you will set up the action step in Pabbly Connect to enroll the new user into a LearnDash course. Click on the action step and select LearnDash as the application. Choose ‘Enroll into Course’ as the action event. You will need to connect your LearnDash account by entering your login details.

Once connected, select the specific course you wish to enroll the user in, such as ‘Advanced Node.js’. Map the user ID from the previous step to ensure the correct user is enrolled. After mapping, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to complete the enrollment process.

Select LearnDash as the application. Choose ‘Enroll into Course’ as the action event. Map the user ID correctly.

Check your LearnDash account to confirm that the user has been successfully enrolled in the specified course.

5. Finalizing the Course Enrollment Automation

After successfully enrolling the new user, it’s important to finalize your workflow in Pabbly Connect. Save the workflow to ensure that all settings and configurations are stored. This integration means that every time a new user registers on your WordPress site, they will automatically be enrolled in the selected LearnDash course.

To further test the automation, you can add another new user in WordPress and verify that they are enrolled in the course as well. This confirms that the integration is working as intended and streamlines your course enrollment process.

In summary, using Pabbly Connect to automate student registration in LearnDash courses not only saves time but also ensures a seamless experience for both administrators and students.
