LearnDash SMS & WhatsApp Notifications
Welcome learners when they enrol and celebrate when they finish. SGC Connect sends your approved templates on SMS, WhatsApp, RCS or Voice.
What the LearnDash module does
The LearnDash module sends a message when a student is enrolled in a course and when a student completes one. The number is read from the student's billing_phone or phone_number profile field, so students without one are skipped.
LearnDash is a paid plugin, and this module is supported by the plugin's detection and course hooks. Students without a phone number in their profile are skipped.
Placeholder tokens
Use these inside template variables to put live values in the message.

| Event | When it is sent |
|---|---|
| Student enrolled in a course | Sent when a student gains access to a course. |
| Student completes a course | Sent when a student finishes a course. |
Every event has its own switch, channel choice (SMS, WhatsApp, RCS, Voice, with fallback in the order ticked) and approved template.
