Using Divi theme with LifterLMS

When establishing an LMS with WordPress, LifterLMS is a solid LMS plugin, and Divi an excellent theme. But they don’t play together seamlessly out-of-the-box.

Specifically, you need to go to extra efforts to enable Divi builder and Divi settings for custom post types that come with LifterLMS: Course and Lesson.

But there is a solution!

The longcut

For all the instructions to do this yourself, see Nagdy’s post.

Pay to progress

Another good option, if you’re happy to pay a nominal fee is to use Divi Booster. This plugin allows you to enable Divi on custom post types without getting your hands dirty by touching the code below—I mean, eww, who knows where it’s been??

You can use this for any custom post types, just keep adding to the $post_types array at the top of the functions.php file.

function my_et_builder_post_types( $post_types ) {
    $post_types[] = 'course';
    $post_types[] = 'lesson';
    $post_types[] = 'another'; // Repeat this line and tweak
 
    return $post_types;
}
add_filter( 'et_builder_post_types', 'my_et_builder_post_types' );

Results

You should now see the Divi builder and Divi settings options appear when you edit those custom post types.

Let me know how you go!
