Sensei Course Participants 2.0

Sensei Course Participants 2.0 is now available! 🥳

Please note that Sensei Course Participants 2.0 requires a minimum Sensei version of 1.11.0 and a minimum PHP version of 5.6. If you are not running Sensei 1.11.0+ and PHP 5.6+, please update to more recent versions of both before updating Course Participants.

If you’re not sure which version of PHP your site is running, you may find the How to Check Your WordPress Site’s PHP Version section of this article helpful. You can also read more about updating PHP on WordPress.org.

What’s in this Release?

Here are the highlights of the Sensei Course Participants 2.0 release:

• Course Participants requires Sensei 1.11.0+ and PHP 5.6+.
• Course Participants is now compatible with Sensei LMS.
• Only learners who are currently taking the course are included in the learner count and the widget.
• The <h3> tag has been replaced with a <span> tag for the participant’s name. This is a potentially breaking change for those using an h3 CSS selector. Please update your CSS where necessary.
• Asensei_course_participants_exclude_completed_participants filter has been added that determines whether or not to include learners in the learner count and widget if they have already completed the course.
• A sensei_course_participants_profile_url filter has been added that enables customization of the learner profile URL in the widget.
