Can students take notes on LearnDash courses and export them to PDF?

Lisa Thompson Lisa Thompson 7 months ago

Our students frequently ask for a note-taking feature during courses. They want to jot down key points while watching lessons and be able to export their notes later for offline study. Is there a LearnDash addon for this?

LMS Notes adds a note-taking system to LearnDash courses, lessons, topics, and quizzes:

  • Per-content notes — students create notes attached to specific courses, lessons, topics, or quizzes. Notes stay organized by where they were taken.
  • Export to PDF and DOCX — students can export their notes for offline study.
  • Tagging system — tag notes with comma-separated labels for easy filtering.
  • BuddyPress integration — notes appear as a tab on BuddyPress profile pages.
  • Instructor view — instructors can access and manage all students' notes.
  • Multi-LMS support — also works with Sensei LMS, LifterLMS, LearnPress, and TutorLMS if you ever switch platforms.
  • Shortcodes — [lcn_notes] for custom pages, [lms_notes] on specific LMS components, [lms_instructor_notes] for instructor views.

Notes are paginated for large collections and support search and filtering. The note icon can be customized in color and animation.
