Reset completion status for a lesson

    I’m wondering if you’d consider adding a way to reset the completion status for a lesson? I am working on implementing LearnPress as a way to allow student to track their progress through classes/courses they take, and each lesson inside of a course will be a key takeaway for that course. So, there may be 10–20 “lessons” in each course. I could foresee students accidentally completing a lesson or realize later that they want to mark it as incomplete.

    I did find a workaround for this by going into the database and deleting the entry for completion of that lesson. It works, but it would be nice to have a way that administrators could do this right in the WordPress admin, or better yet allow students to do this themselves.

    Thanks!

    @bighamagency Sorry about the extremely late reply! I got a notification when you replied, and just scanned it and didn’t see that you wanted to know what my workaround was. I haven’t worked on it at all this summer, but let me go through my notes and document the steps to my workaround. I’ll try to post that later today.

    @bighamagency Here are the steps to do this:

    1. Go into phpMyAdmin (or any other way you may know to access your WordPress database).
    2. Look for the database table titled “wp_learnpress_user_items”.
    3. The entries in this table record the statuses of “enrolling”, “viewing”, “completing”, and “finishing” lessons. You can delete entries here to change the status, like undo a “finished” status on a lesson for example. You may want to create a test user and experiment a bit just to make sure it works the way you want. One thing to note, after you do change status this way in the database, on the front end the progress will still show as before, but once you click a lesson again it will refresh.

      4. Hope that helps!

    Hello @kendy73,

    Have you guys already made an option for this in WordPress Admin? I don’t have the skills to go into the database, but I do have the same issue with wanting to undo it when someone incidentally clicked finished for the whole course.

    Thanks!

    Hey there,

    Is a resolution available yet?

    I have a member who clicked complete course, but the course is not complete.

    Yes, there is a resolution to the query I raised. In order to get the course tested, end to end, you must first register as a user. Although you are an administrator, this is what you have to do. Then the course can be started and completed and quizzes taken. There are other steps in between, such as getting registered as a user with login credentials and paying for courses to fulfill an order and generate the automatic emails to the user so s/he can start the first course.
    I hope this helps.

    Hey Mill,

    Thanks for your response.

    I am a bit confused.

    I am trying to reset completion of lesson for members – I have my own admin login as well as a user login.

    Thanks for your help

    Actually how do you register a user? I was trying to autoenroll members by a tag in infusionsoft which used to work.
