Courses for RSS and other live events can be set up with ability for attendees to text their attendance. Open a course in edit mode and select the Dashboard tab at the top. Scroll down to find the course credit setup widget, and the setting for the event schedule below that. Events can be one time or recurring. Once you apply the credit(s) and schedule the event, select “Generate Code” to see the texting code to provide learners. All codes for all events should be texted to the same number: 844-998-2674
Note: when attendees to text their attendance the system adds the course and designated credit to their transcripts. However, the system does not automatically enroll the attendee in the course. This means that the courses will not show up in the attendees’ course list on their profile pages, nor in profiles or course reports.
Temporary Password Reset Setup
Temporary Password Reset Setup
Overview: For increased security on conferences that are set up as courses (conferences that require multiple access packages), this allows us to send out a temporary password with the initial pre-conference email. On first login, attendees will be prompted to change their password, and once they do, they’ll be redirected to their profile. On subsequent logins with their new password, they will be redirected straight to their profile.
Create membership (MemberPress)
Price – Free
Access – Lifetime (?)
Restrict page access to logged in; no required role/course/group
Uncheck custom thank you page, membership-specific welcome email
Customize payment methods > check Offline Payment
Everything else can be default
NOTE membership ID from list
Create form (Gravity Forms)
Email field
Password field (enter a new password, enable confirm password, visibility toggle, minimum strength Strong)
Hidden radio button field titled “Membership” with membership ID in field and button selected
Form settings: button text = Change Password, all else default
Right now, users who have done one of these login flows for one conference won’t be prompted for a subsequent password change, since the previous membership rule overrides the new course enrollment rule. This can be fixed by expiring memberships and/or removing redirect rules after the course period has ended.
This flow requires a new gravity form (and new page to host it) for each conference.
This redirect is different from the default customer behavior (redirects to course catalog). This could be fixed by removing old memberships/redirect rules, unless we want to keep that behavior.
Site admins will see the reset page on login, since they are automatically enrolled in all courses. Currently, the only way to avoid this is to register into the membership (manually or via the form). The form can always be clicked past, though.
Add Side Bars
Side Bars
Create a new sidebar under Content Aware.
You don’t need to create a new sidebar for each course, unless there isn’t a sidebar with content type you need.
There is a “Course Master” sidebar and associated widget.
You don’t have to define the course/module/section/activity conditions in the sidebar settings. Action should be set to Forced Replace Learn Dash Courses
In the widget settings, added the course navigation module, and custom html for technical supported.
In the LD course settings, point the sidebar quick select to the desired sidebar/widget (e.g., Course Master).
Under the Options tab, change the number to 1 instead of 0 if the sidebars are not appearing.
LearnDash Course Structure
LearnDash Course Structure
Like most other Learn Management Systems, LearnDash organizes courses hierarchically: the top of level is the the courses. Courses can — but don’t have to — contain modules, and modules can — but don’t have to — contain sections. Additionally, modules or sections can contain “activities,” which are different types of quizzes (single choice, multiple choice, short answers, essay, fill-in-the-blank, sequence items, click-on).
Note: Default labeling for LearnDash course components is different from our custom labeling. This is only important if you are researching LearnDash documentation.

Continue Button After Quiz Submission
Continue Button After Quiz Submission
To hide the “Continue” button after a quiz has been submitted, the quiz ID has to be added to the config.php file. DO NOT EDIT THE CONFIG ON YOUR OWN! Ask Dan to edit it for you.
Shared Activities (Quizzes)
Shared Activities (Quizzes)
Quiz questions can be re-used in multiple activities/quizzes. Any duplicate quiz (regardless of the “Shared Quiz Questions” option) will display separate user results in course reports. In the situation where “Shared Quiz Questions” is enabled, this simply means that an admin can edit 1 quiz question for all quizzes that contain that question as opposed to editing the same question in every course where it is used. Please let us know if you have any other questions.
Evaluation Form Submission
Evaluation Form Submission
CME courses require form submission for credit/certificate. To facilitate this Gravity Forms has an option at the bottom of the form settings to auto complete lesson or topic upon submission. Select that, and select auto complete for the module or topic the form is embedded in, and then the module or topic will auto complete upon form submission. So no CME credit/certificate requires the evaluation form to be submitted, but you can’t get to the evaluation form until you have completed the video.

Team Members Object
Shortcodes
@description: The Team members shortcode can display all team members or team member from a business section. The team members will be displayed in alphabetical order based on last name and first name. The order in which team members are displayed is alphabetical, as determined by the name in “last-name” field of the team member fields entry. So, to manipulate the alphabetical ordering, letters can be place in front of the names in the last name field. For example, “A-Kesselheim” “B-Nagler”, etc. Note that the name in the members field is not the name that appears on the page. The name and other text int the team member post title is what gets displayed on the page. [team] Display all team members.

People think focus means saying yes to the thing you’ve got to focus on. But that’s not what it means at all. It means saying no to the hundred other good ideas that there are. You have to pick carefully. I’m actually as proud of the things we haven’t done as the things I have done. Innovation is saying no to 1,000 things.

Code Tag
You will learn later on in these tests that word-wrap: break-word; will be your best friend.
Delete Tag
This tag will let you strikeout text, but this tag is no longer supported in HTML5 (use the <strike> instead).
Emphasize Tag
The emphasize tag should italicize text.
Insert Tag
This tag should denote inserted text.

Preformatted Tag
This tag styles large blocks of code.

line-height: 1.2;
and here's a line of some really, really, really, really long text, just to see how the PRE tag handles it and to find out how it overflows;

Getting our science styling on with H2O, which should push the “2” down.
Superscript Tag
Still sticking with science and Isaac Newton’s E = MC2, which should lift the 2 up.

Image alignment
The best way to demonstrate the ebb and flow of the various image positioning options is to nestle them snuggly among an ocean of words. Grab a paddle and let’s get started. On the topic of alignment, it should be noted that users can choose from the options of None, Left, Right, and Center. In addition, they also get the options of Thumbnail, Medium, Large & Fullsize.
The image above happens to be centered.
The rest of this paragraph is filler for the sake of seeing the text wrap around the 150×150 image, which is left aligned. As you can see the should be some space above, below, and to the right of the image. The text should not be creeping on the image. Creeping is just not right. Images need breathing room too. Let them speak like you words. Let them do their jobs without any hassle from the text. In about one more sentence here, we’ll see that the text moves from the right of the image down below the image in seamless transition. Again, letting the do it’s thang. Mission accomplished! And now for a massively large image. It also has no alignment.
The image above, though 1200px wide, should not overflow the content area. It should remain contained with no visible disruption to the flow of content.
And now we’re going to shift things to the right align. Again, there should be plenty of room above, below, and to the left of the image. Just look at him there… Hey guy! Way to rock that right side. I don’t care what the left aligned image says, you look great. Don’t let anyone else tell you differently. In just a bit here, you should see the text start to wrap below the right aligned image and settle in nicely. There should still be plenty of room and everything should be sitting pretty. Yeah… Just like that. It never felt so good to be right.
The image above happens to be centered. The caption also has a link in it, just to see if it does anything funky.
Itty-bitty caption.

Feels good to be right all the time.

Markup: Text Alignment
Default
This is a paragraph. It should not have any alignment of any kind. It should just flow like you would normally expect. Nothing fancy. Just straight up text, free flowing, with love. Completely neutral and not picking a side or sitting on the fence. It just is. It just freaking is. It likes where it is. It does not feel compelled to pick a side. Leave him be. It will just be better that way. Trust me.
Left Align
This is a paragraph. It is left aligned. Because of this, it is a bit more liberal in it’s views. It’s favorite color is green. Left align tends to be more eco-friendly, but it provides no concrete evidence that it really is. Even though it likes share the wealth evenly, it leaves the equal distribution up to justified alignment.
Center Align
This is a paragraph. It is center aligned. Center is, but nature, a fence sitter. A flip flopper. It has a difficult time making up its mind. It wants to pick a side. Really, it does. It has the best intentions, but it tends to complicate matters more than help. The best you can do is try to win it over and hope for the best. I hear center align does take bribes.
Right Align
This is a paragraph. It is right aligned. It is a bit more conservative in it’s views. It’s prefers to not be told what to do or how to do it. Right align totally owns a slew of guns and loves to head to the range for some practice. Which is cool and all. I mean, it’s a pretty good shot from at least four or five football fields away. Dead on. So boss.
Justify Align
This is a paragraph. It is justify aligned. It gets really mad when people associate it with Justin Timberlake. Typically, justified is pretty straight laced. It likes everything to be in it’s place and not all cattywampus like the rest of the aligns. I am not saying that makes it better than the rest of the aligns, but it does tend to put off more of an elitist attitude.
Hero
@description: The Hero component can be turned on and off on any page or post type and needs at least an image and a title. Because pages have hierarchy they can inherit their parents Hero. I the parents Hero is inherited you can still overwrite any of the content.
Footer Banner / CTA
@description: The Footer banner is very simular to the Hero but can not overwrite single fields if it is inherited from a child page.
Customizer
@description: The customizer is used to set the:
Favicon
Logo
Social Media URL’s
WP Menus
WP widgets
Custom CSS
Side Navigation Menu
@description: The side nav menu can be created under apperance > menus. Click “create a new menu” and then click “create menu”. You can also duplicate a menu by going to apperance > Duplicate menu, choose a menu from the selectbox and insert a title. Sidenav menus can be assigned to any page or custom post type using the meta box on that page or custom post type. Because pages have hierarchy they will inherrit their parents menu by default.

– Display the ‘New Topic’ form where you can choose from a drop down menu the forum that this topic is to be associated with. – Display the ‘New Topic Form’ for a specific forum ID. – Display a single topic. eg.
Start on the Dashboard. On the left sidebar under Forums, click Groups.
Click on the name of the group you want to modify.
A group has to have at least one group leader, listed under Administrators. Only group leaders will be able to create events for a group.
To make a regular member a group leader, click the drop-down Group Role menu next to their name and select the role Administrator.
Scroll back to the top of the page and click Save Changes in the top right corner.
Allow a Group Leader to Create Events
Each group leader also needs their site role changed. On the left sidebar under LearnDash, click Users.
Use the search bar in the top right to search for the group leader’s account.
Click the checkbox to the left of their name to select the account. At the top of the list, there’s a dropdown menu Change role to…. Select Group Leader and click Change.
Now, a group leader can publish and modify events only for groups they lead. All other group members can view and register for events within their groups, but they cannot create events or modify bookings other than their own.
Create/Edit Events From Backend
In case you (a site administrator) want to set up or modify a particular event.
On the left sidebar, click Events with the calendar icon – not the one with a thumbtack icon.
In the list are all future published events. If you need to modify one, click on its title and edit as necessary.
To create an event, click Add Event at the top of the page.
Add a title.
Add a description, if necessary. Add Zoom meeting details to this field if applicable.
On the right sidebar under When, pick a date (or date range) and time.
Further down the right sidebar, choose Event Categories, if necessary.
In the center of the screen, in the section Where, choose a location or check the box “This event does not have a physical location” for an online-only meeting.
Below Where, in Bookings/Registration, check Enable registration for this event.
For most events, you will only need one ticket type.
In Total Spaces, enter the total number of people that can register for this event. For Scholars Group meetings, this is the number of presenters. Leave the field blank for unlimited registrations.
In Maximum Spaces Per Booking, set the number of tickets each attendee can book. In most cases, this is 1.
To use a custom booking form, pick the one you want from the dropdown Selected Booking Form. For Scholars Group meetings, select the Scholars Group Event form. See below for how to create a custom booking form.
On the right sidebar under Group Ownership, select the group that will have access to this event, if necessary. Note that all leaders of the group will be able to modify the event.
In the center of the screen under Author, you can select who owns the event. This is you by default, but can be changed to any user with a user role of Author, Editor, or Administrator.
You can not directly change the owner of an event to a group leader. The workaround for this is to go into Users, change the group leader’s role to Author, go back to the event and select them as the owner, and return to Users to change their role back to Group Leader. Their ownership of the event will remain.
When you are done, scroll back up to the Publish section on the right side. You can save your draft to return to it later, preview how your event will look on the site, or publish it so that it will be viewable immediately.
Note that an event published in a private group will have its visibility set to private automatically.
View/Export Bookings From Backend
Under Events, click on Bookings.
Under Events with Bookings Enabled, click on the name of the event you wish to view bookings for.
To change what information from the booking is displayed, click on the gear icon above the list.
Fields in yellow on the left are displayed in the table, and fields in grey on the right are available to be displayed. Click and drag fields from one side to the other to customize your view. Displayed fields are shown in the order they are arranged (top to bottom in the list displays left to right).
Click Save Settings to finalize changes. These changes will be saved for this event’s booking table.
To export the booking information, click the CSV icon above the list.
This brings up the same field organizer. Fields in yellow on the left will be exported to a CSV file in the order they are arranged.
Click Export Bookings to save the file.
Create a Custom Booking Form
Under Events, click Forms Editor.
To edit an existing form, select it from the Selected Booking Form dropdown. To make a new form, enter a title in the text box and click Add New.
Forms must have a Name field (or both a First Name and Last Name field) and an E-mail field. All fields can be customized, rearranged, and deleted.
In the Label field, enter the text that users will see accompanying the field.
The Field ID is a unique code to distinguish fields. It should be all lowercase, with underscores instead of spaces where necessary. Modifying the Field ID for an existing field can cause the data to not associate with past fields, so only do this if you’re creating a new field.
The field Type allows for different data formats. Choose the one most appropriate to the field.
Check the Required box if you need the field’s data from every attendee.
If you click the gear icon, there are a number of advanced options. The most common one is tip text, which allows you to add a short description or comment to the field.
When finished with the form, scroll to the bottom of the table to click Save Form.
Important Settings
Events>Settings>General>User Capabilities
This determines what each user can do as defined by their site role.
administrator: check all boxes
subscriber: check read_private_events and manage_bookings. Read_private_events is necessary because all events published in a private group are private by default.
These are the only roles that need customizing. All new site users are subscribers by default, and group leaders have to be assigned the role of group_leader as described above.
Events>Settings>Emails>Booking Email Templates
This can be used to change the emails that are automatically sent out when someone makes a booking.
Event Admin/Owner Emails are sent to the event owner and the site admin whenever a booking is made.
Booked User Emails are sent to a user when they book an event.
These are the global settings – do not use this if you want to make a booking email for a specific event.
WPForms Plugin
This covers how to use the WPForms plugin, which is an integrated way to create forms and surveys for the website.
Create a Form and Options
Click on WPForms in the left sidebar. This will bring you to the Forms Overview.
Click Add New at the top.
Enter a name for your form.
Select a template. Blank Form provides you with a totally blank form that you can build any way you need, but other templates have some fields already created to make your project easier. For example:
Simple Contact Form has name and email fields and a large comment box for messages.
Survey Form has star ratings, a comment box that appears according to feedback, and Likert scales.
Next you will be taken to the Fields view. This allows you to add, remove, rearrange, and customize the fields on your form.
To add a field, look for it on the left and click and drag it onto the form.
To rearrange fields, click and drag them into the correct position.
To delete a field, click the trash can icon in the top right corner of the field.
To duplicate a field, click on the copy icon in the top right corner of the field.
To edit a field, click on it and change the options in the left sidebar.
The Label displays above the field.
The Description displays in small text below the field.
Checking the Required box means that the user must complete the field to submit the form.
Different fields may have other options. For example, the Multiple Choice field allows you to add a large list of options (Bulk Add) or use images as choices.
See Advanced Options and Conditional Logic below for more information.
When you are done constructing your form, click on Settings in the left nav bar.
General: edit the form name and description and customize the submit button.
Notifications: by default, the site administrator will be emailed whenever a new entry is submitted to a form. Click Add New Notification to add an additional contact.
Confirmation: edit the message or action that occurs after a user submits the form.
Form Abandonment: checking this allows you to capture the response for a partially filled form if the user leaves before completing it.
Post Submissions: allows users to submit a WordPress post via form response. We don’t currently use regular posts on the DME site, but this does include support for custom post types such as forum topics and assignments.
Surveys and Polls:Enable Survey Reporting shows cumulative results on the backend in a graphical manner. Enable Poll Results displays cumulative results for all Checkbox, Multiple Choice, and Dropdown fields in a form to the user once they submit the form.
Conversational Forms: Creates a page on the site which displays the form questions one at a time and shows a progress bar at the bottom. This can be less distracting or overwhelming for users filling out a long form.
Form Locker: restrict when and how users can fill out the form, with password protection, time limit, or entry limit.
Form Pages: Creates a page on the site which displays the whole form. This is helpful if you are making a stand-alone form or survey. Without this enabled, the only way to share the form is to embed it on a page with a shortcode (see below).
Click Save in the top right corner and the X to exit edit mode.
Advanced Options for Fields
Enable Survey Reporting: shows the cumulative responses for the particular field in a graphical manner on the backend.
Field Size: Change the width of the field as it appears to the user.
Hide Label: Hides the label on a field. It will still appear in the backend when reviewing entries.
CSS Classes: enter snippets of CSS code to customize how the field looks. Click the Show Layouts link to easily organize fields into columns for easier viewing.
Advanced Options vary based on the type of field. Some other common options are:
Placeholder Text (on text fields): text that shows in the field but disappears once the user starts typing their own response. This can be used to show an example of the response format you are looking for; for example, the placeholder text in an email field could be myname@example.com.
Default Value: a value that is prefilled on the form when the user opens it.
Input Mask: restrict the style of input in a text field. Click the See Examples and Docs link for more details.
Randomize Choices (checkboxes and multiple choice): randomize the order the options are displayed in for each user.
Conditional Logic for Fields
Enabling conditional logic allows you to set the rules for when a field will be shown or hidden based on the responses in other fields. Some common uses are to show a text box if you select the ‘other’ option in a multiple choice field, or to hide a set of questions if you answer ‘no’ to a particular field.
For example, consider this form. We want to show the text field only when the user selects ‘Other’ for the first question.
Enable Conditional Logic: check for the field(s) you wish to show or hide.
Choose to show or hide the field on the condition.
In the first dropdown, select the field whose value will affect this field.
In the second dropdown, select the criteria for showing/hiding the field.
‘Is/is not’ look for exact matches in the field.
‘Empty/not empty’ apply to text fields.
‘Contains/does not contain’ look for partial matches anywhere in the field.
‘Starts with/ends with’ looks for partial matches at the beginning or end of the field.
‘Greater than/less than’ apply to numeric fields.
In the third dropdown, select the value of the affecting field.
Here’s the final setup for this example field:
You can have multiple conditions affect a field.
If you want the field to be shown/hidden when both conditions are true, click the AND button to the right of the first condition and it will add a new ‘AND’ row.
If you want the field to be shown/hidden if one or the other is true, click the Add New Group button below the first condition and it will add a new ‘OR’ row.
These logic options can be combined in many ways. For example, you can show a field when Condition 1 is met OR both Condition 2 AND Condition 3 are met.
Export/View Reports
To view all the entries for a particular form, hover over the name and click Entries.
If survey reporting is enabled, you’ll see a graphical representation of the first question responses and a link to View Survey Results.
Below that is a list of all the responses to your form. It shows the first few questions, the status of the response, and the date it was submitted.
The circle to the left of each entry is green if the entry has not been viewed yet. You can mark them all as ‘read’ by clicking the Mark All Read link at the top of the page.
Click the gear in the top right of the table to change which columns are displayed.
To view the entirety of a particular entry, click the View link on the far right. This takes you to a full list of the responses to each entry, along with some details and options for the entry.
To export all entries for a form, click Download Export (CSV) at the top of the form’s Entries page. They will be saved as a CSV file, which can be opened/imported into Excel or Google Sheets.
To export a particular entry, click View to see the entry and click Export (CSV).
Shortcodes/Embedding
There are three ways to get the shortcode for a particular form:
Open it in Edit mode (click on the title or click the Edit link) and click Embed in the top right corner. The window that opens displays the shortcode for that particular form at the top.
From the Forms Overview page, look in the Shortcode column for the form you wish to embed.
When editing the page you wish to embed the form on, you can insert a WPForms block and select which form you want to display. This inserts shortcode automatically.
Form:
Attributes:
Id: a unique form identifier. You can find it on the Forms Overview page in the Shortcode column.
Title: Boolean. Show or hide the form’s title when embedding.
Description: Boolean. Show or hide the form’s description when embedding.
LearnDash Groups
LearnDash groups have no front-end access or visibility. A LD group leader can view the members of the group, check and export their progress, and send email notifications to the entire group from the admin panel appropriate to their site access level (dme.childrenshospital.org/wp-admin).
For LearnDash group functions, login to the admin panel (dme.childrenshospital.org/wp-admin). On the left sidebar select LearnDash LMS>Group Administration and you will see a list of all the groups you are a leader of.
To email a group, click List Users next to the group. At the top of the page, click Email Group. Write a subject and your message; you can add media files by clicking Add Media at the top of the Email Message box. Click Send at the bottom of the page when you are finished.
Export Progress creates a report of users’ progress through the module, and Export Results creates a report of users’ quiz scores. Clicking on the link prompts you to download a CSV file with the report.
To edit the group, click Edit Group. On this page you can control the modules associated with the group, assign group leaders, and add new members to the group. Click Update in the top right to save your changes.
