CoursePress: Create and Sell Awesome Courses for Free!

Have you ever thought about delivering online courses through WordPress? I know I have, a heap, and until now that’s been a hell of a difficult experience going through rubbish (and often expensive) plugins. But no longer…

Editors note: We released CoursePress back in 2014 and while you can no longer download it at WordPress.org or WPMU DEV you can from Github.

CoursePress allows you to easily create, manage and sell beautiful courses from right in WordPress, and best of all it’s completely free – check it out:

First up, CoursePress comes with pretty much every element you could imagine needing to construct a course – ranging from video, audio, and downloads to interactive elements like multiple choice, uploads, long-form answers, forum-style discussions, and even live chat integration right there in your course (for live seminars or students just to hang out).

Every element you could want for a great course

Then we’ve made it really really simple to set up an absolutely beautiful course, both in terms of the UX and the front end output.

When you activate the plugin you are guided through a helpful getting started an experience that’ll have your first course set up in minutes, and then once you’ve got it together you can either choose to use the bundled theme for a beautiful course off the bat – or enjoy the fact that, like all WPMU DEV plugins, this works really well with pretty much any WordPress theme.
