GoDAM LifterLMS integration

LifterLMS is a feature-rich learning management system for WordPress, designed to help you create, sell, and manage online courses with ease. It includes tools like quizzes, assignments, memberships, and certificates, giving you everything needed to run a complete eLearning platform. GoDAM LifterLMS integration provides course creators to host their videos on the GoDAM cloud storage, serve them using a global CDN and add advanced video capabilities. With features like video completion tracking, auto-play, and resume playback, you can deliver a more interactive and engaging learning experience for your students.

LifterLMS Advanced Video

To use GoDAM with LifterLMS, you will need the LifterLMS Advanced Video add-on, it gives course creators more control over how learners interact with lesson videos. Some of its key features include:

• Require Video Completion: Prevents learners from marking a lesson complete until the full video is watched.
• Auto-Advance: Moves learners to the next lesson automatically after a set countdown.
• Auto-Play Next Lesson: Starts the next lesson’s video automatically after the current one finishes.
• Resume Playback: Learners can continue from where they left off if they return later.

By integrating GoDAM, you can apply these features to your videos, ensuring a smooth, branded, and fully interactive learning flow for your students.
