Launching an online course usually means stacking a course plugin, a payments addon, and a membership plugin. Learnomy ships all three in one free LMS: courses, quizzes, verifiable certificates, checkout, and memberships. It is AI-agent ready too: every LMS action is exposed through the WordPress Abilities API, so assistants like ChatGPT and Claude can discover and run your academy. Free forever.
Uniform embeds. The lesson Embed type, embeds inside lesson and course content, and migrated content all render through one WordPress oEmbed pipeline as a premium responsive player, with a clean link-card fallback for anything WordPress cannot embed. Covers all built-in oEmbed providers (YouTube, Vimeo, TikTok, Spotify and ~40 more).
Author embed preview now matches the student view in the lesson editor and the front-end course builder, via a new REST endpoint GET /learnomy/v1/oembed-preview.
Translation ready. Every front-end string is translatable, and the plugin ships AI-assisted translations for 12 locales (German, French, Spanish, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, Dutch, Polish, Swedish, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese).
Improve
Classic-layout quizzes now reliably record short-answer, fill-in-the-blank and essay responses.
The lesson progress bar is calculated live from completed lessons so it always matches the X of N count.
Security
Embeds resolve only through WordPress's built-in oEmbed provider list, closing a server-side request risk on the author preview endpoint.
Dev
New filters learnomy_embed_html and learnomy_embed_oembed_args, and a new Learnomy\Content\Embed engine. Front-end account, registration and progress scripts are now i18n-wired.
v1.2.1
June 1, 2026
New 1 Fix 1
New
Course visibility is now a three-way choice - Public, Unlisted (hidden from the catalog but open to anyone with the direct link), or Private (enrolled students and admins only) - replacing the single Private hide-from-catalog checkbox so a course can be shared by link without being public.
Fix
Restored the Payment Provider Mapping fields on the membership plan editor (Stripe Test/Live Price ID, PayPal Sandbox/Live Plan ID) so plans can be mapped to provider price IDs again.

New
Import courses, lessons, quizzes, and questions from LearnDash, Tutor LMS, and LifterLMS through a guided wizard, with an optional people tier that brings across enrollments and progress.
Migrations run in resumable background batches with a dry-run preview, and state up front which data is not migrated (certificates, grades, and payments).
Build custom account fields for registration and the account profile from a no-code builder, managed entirely by the site owner.
Set per-lesson access requirements through a filterable access gate, including lessons embedded outside the course player.
Sections are now optional in the course builder, so lessons and quizzes can sit directly under a course.
Reassign a course's lead author and add co-instructors from the course editor.
Improve
Instructor roster data can now be anonymized through dedicated privacy hooks for export and erasure requests.
Promoted the Abilities API from a single modules-table row to a linked, first-class integrations doc.
Fix
Removed per-row queries in the instructor Q&A inbox, students-at-risk, and recent-transactions widgets so large dashboards load in a constant query count.
The grading detail screen no longer fatals on a malformed format string, and editing a lesson no longer mangles its media IDs.
Corrected a malformed placeholder in the revenue-trend widget that could fatal on PHP 8.
Dev
Added a wp learnomy migrate WP-CLI command and REST endpoints that drive the import wizard.
Added editor-field and integration hook seams so third-party fields round-trip through the course and account editors.
Added an AI Agents and Abilities API integration guide covering the 34 AI-discoverable LMS actions across 6 categories.
Added a Dutch (nl_NL) translation and regenerated the .pot.

Aligned with Learnomy Pro 1.2.0. Install both updates together.

Improve
Reworded user-facing strings to plain English across admin and front-end (replaced stylistic dashes with natural punctuation).
Fix
Deleting a course category that still has courses now moves them to Uncategorized and removes the category, instead of appearing to do nothing; the confirm explains the move and the result reports how many courses moved.
Checkout could subscribe a member to the same membership plan twice and double-bill; a second active subscription to the same plan is now rejected, and a different plan is directed to billing to change plans.
All 12 Gutenberg blocks now load their styles on any page, not only on Learnomy routes; they previously rendered unstyled elsewhere.
The membership pricing block now ships its own styles and shows the currency symbol on the amount.
The become-an-instructor page now sends anonymous visitors to the public registration form instead of bouncing them to wp-login and losing the applicant.
An unknown course URL now renders the theme 404 page and title instead of a "Course" title on a not-found body.
Course and catalog grids no longer leave blank trailing columns when there are fewer cards than columns.
The PWA manifest is now served dynamically with valid icons and a non-redirecting start URL, fixing manifest and icon 404s.
Documentation and marketing copy corrected against the shipped product: REST auth endpoint (/auth/token) and endpoint count (166), the five Pro quiz question types, the Pro module count (15), lesson content types, settings navigation, and analytics docs.
Dev
Full translation readiness: regenerated the .pot, added translator comments to every placeholder string, and registered front-end script strings (modals, course builder, quiz editor, toasts) for translation. The WordPress.WP.I18n check is clean.

Action Scheduler is now bundled, so recurring jobs (membership renewals, reminders, dunning, webhook delivery, large broadcasts) run on a standalone install with no WooCommerce required.
BuddyX and BuddyX Pro theme bridge: Learnomy adopts the theme palette and follows its dark mode automatically.
Fix
Bearer token authentication now works for REST and mobile clients; tokens were issued but never read, returning 401.
The certificate designer pre-loads the Classic template when creating a new certificate instead of opening to a blank canvas.
Cancelling a membership now unenrolls the member from the courses that membership granted, even on enrollments created without a stored plan id.
