Sikshya LMS — WordPress learning management plugin for online courses, quizzes, Stripe/PayPal checkout, certificates, and learner dashboards on your domain. Sikshya LMS is a WordPress LMS (learning management system) for educators and creators who want students to enroll, learn, and pay without leaving the site. It installs like other WordPress plugins: you control hosting, data, and branding. The free core lets you launch a real course catalog, sell when you are ready, and upgrade to Sikshya Pro when you need automation and advanced add-ons. At a glance

Sell — Free or paid online courses with Stripe and PayPal, coupons, and orders via native checkout in the free core.
Teach — Visual course builder, structured curriculum, video & text lessons, quizzes & auto-grading, assignments, and course certificates.
Support learners — Dashboards, progress, wishlist, and role-aware flows for instructors and staff.

Creator-first workflow — A fast admin experience (React-powered shell) so you spend time teaching, not hunting through scattered WordPress screens.
Commerce that belongs in the free core — Paid courses, coupons, orders, and mainstream gateways are part of the baseline story—not an afterthought locked behind “contact sales.”
Sensible defaults — Fewer knobs on day one; advanced automation, marketplace, and reporting unlock with Sikshya Pro when you are ready to scale.
WordPress-native — Courses, lessons, quizzes, and questions follow familiar custom post types and capabilities, with REST-oriented services where documented—so agencies and developers can extend predictably.
Compatible with your stack — Works with the WordPress block editor (Gutenberg), Classic Editor, and popular page builders such as Elementor and Divi alongside your existing theme.

Self-hosted WordPress LMS — curriculum, quizzes, checkout, and certificates Install Sikshya on your WordPress site to keep ownership of course content, learner records, and payments—without renting a separate SaaS LMS just to deliver training. In plain English: you create courses in the WordPress admin; learners open your course pages on the front of your site, track progress in their account, and complete quizzes or assignments you publish. Use Sikshya for coaching, professional training, customer education, internal onboarding, or the start of a course marketplace—with full control of content, branding, and revenue. New to WordPress LMS plugins?

No code required to publish lessons and quizzes—you work inside Sikshya’s admin screens like other WordPress plugins.
Your theme controls fonts and many layout basics; Sikshya adds course templates and learner views so selling and learning stay consistent.
Start small: create one course, one short lesson, and one quiz; invite a test student account before you invite paying customers.
Payments are optional: offer free courses first, then connect Stripe or PayPal when you sell.

Who is Sikshya for?

Coaches, consultants, and creators shipping paid programs without hiring a platform team.
Training companies & academies replacing spreadsheets with enrollments, progress, and assessments.
Teams doing internal training who need completion tracking and light certification.
Agencies standardizing one dependable LMS layer across client sites (including multisite when configured carefully).

Extended use cases

Blended learning — Self-paced lessons plus scheduled touchpoints (extended live tooling ships in Pro where applicable).
Customer education — Product training and onboarding academies tied to your brand site.
Community & cohort programs — Clear curriculum and progress signals; pair with your favorite community plugins as needed.

Top features (free core) Each headline below links to its dedicated feature page on the Sikshya site. Course Builder — curriculum + chapters

Unlimited courses, lessons, and quizzes (within your hosting limits).
Structured curriculum with sections/chapters and drag-and-drop style ordering.
Course landing content: descriptions, FAQs, announcements, preview lessons.
Course archive with search and filters aligned to your theme.

Video & Text Lessons — multi-format content

Lesson types: text, video via URL/embed-style delivery, downloadable materials.
Optional transcript field (downloadable URL + paste-in text) for accessibility and SEO.
Graceful media fallback when an embed or source can't load.

Quizzes & Auto-grading — assessment that actually scales

Quiz builder: multiple choice, true/false, short answer, essay, fill-in-the-blank, ordering, matching.
Passing marks, attempts, and timer-oriented assessment controls.
Sequential progression and chapter-style gating where configured.
Mid-attempt auto-save so a refresh doesn't wipe in-progress answers.
Per-type score breakdown + optional per-question explanations on review.
Assignments with submission and manual grading for real-world evaluation.

Course Certificates — issued on completion

Two ready-to-use certificate templates (Heritage + Vertex) ship in the free core, marked default so they survive updates.
PDF download from the learner profile when a course is completed.
QR-based external verification ships in the Pro Advanced certificates addon.

Learners

Student dashboard: enrollments, progress, resume learning.
Wishlist for saved courses.
Role-aware flows for administrators and instructors.

Native checkout — checkout & monetization (free baseline)

Free courses, paid courses, and manual enrollment by staff.
Stripe and PayPal as first-class payment paths in settings.
Coupons: percentage or fixed discounts, redemption limits, optional date windows.
Order management: visibility, notes, and administrative refund-style workflows as implemented per release.

Reliability & operations

Capability checks, nonces, and disciplined REST patterns aligned with WordPress security expectations.
Transactional email hooks for enrollment, purchase, and completion journeys (templates evolve by release).
Translation-ready (sikshya text domain); RTL-friendly layouts are a continuous improvement target—report theme-specific gaps via support.

Native commerce & checkout Sell access without duct-taping five plugins together for a basic launch: configure gateways, test in sandbox or test mode when available, publish your course page, and route buyers through a checkout experience designed for digital education—not generic cart prose bolted onto an LMS. Platform notes

Themes — Built to cooperate with well-coded WordPress themes; use a default theme briefly if you need to isolate CSS conflicts.
Multisite — Network-enabled; validate roles, capabilities, and data boundaries per site before production.
Developers — Hooks and filters around enrollments, lesson completion, and quiz outcomes; REST coverage is summarized on the product site and expanded in Sikshya documentation.

Upgrade to Sikshya Pro Unlock advanced content drip and prerequisites, multi-instructor collaboration, subscriptions, deeper analytics and gradebook workflows, course bundles, white-label options, and broader integrations. Free stays generous; Pro unlocks scale. 👉 Explore Sikshya Pro 👉 Sikshya pricing & plans Sikshya Pro add-on catalog Below is the full commercial add-on line-up from the Sikshya feature registry. Each title links to pricing so you can compare plans. Availability varies by plan tier (Starter, Growth / Pro band, Scale); see the pricing page for the current matrix. Starter-band add-ons

Content drip & scheduled unlock — Release lessons over time (“day 3 after signup”, dates, cohort pace) instead of opening the full catalog on day one. Best for paced programs and term-style delivery; disable for purely self‑paced libraries.
Course reviews & ratings — Collect star ratings and written reviews on course pages with moderation before they go live. Builds social proof in the catalog; turn off when public reviews don’t fit your model.
Prerequisites (lessons & courses) — Require completion of chosen lessons or whole courses before the next step unlocks—ideal for sequencing, compliance, or leveled paths. Leave off when every course stands alone.
Instructor dashboard — Gives each teacher a concise snapshot (e.g. enrollments on their courses) without sharing the whole admin site. Useful when instructors should see their numbers only.
Drip & automation emails — Optional transactional emails when drip rules unlock lessons or schedules (templates in Email templates). Pair with Content drip when you want “lesson unlocked” style notices.
Calendar — Shows learners a dated schedule—enrollments, upcoming drip unlocks, assignment due dates—on My account plus REST data for custom UIs. Handy when deadlines and releases should appear in one place.

Growth-band add-ons

Professional email delivery & branded templates — Route Sikshya emails through a proper ESP (SendGrid-style setup) and wrap messages with your branding. Improve deliverability versus generic PHP mail.
Course discussions & Q&A — In-course discussions and Q&A with instructor moderation for cohort-led learning. Skip when comments are handled entirely outside Sikshya.
Multi-instructor & co-authors — Assign multiple instructors per course with optional revenue splits for shared authoring and payouts. Keeps ledger-style splits disciplined at checkout.
Advanced analytics & exports — Download enrollment-style and progress-ready data for Excel/Sheets and offline planning. Bridges dashboard charts and spreadsheets when stakeholders need files.
Gradebook — Consolidates quizzes and graded assignments into a per‑learner, per‑course scores view plus export workflows. Targets real grading—not “completion only.”
Student activity log — Timeline of milestones (enrollment, completions, quizzes, submissions, checkout) when you must answer what happened, when. Helpful support and dispute trail.
Advanced certificates (builder, QR, verification) — Verification links/pages, richer layouts, and optional QR tying to proofs beyond the basic PDF. Use when authenticity checks matter externally.
Subscriptions & memberships — Sell ongoing access via recurring billing models instead of strictly one-shot course sales. Fits memberships and renewals layered on gateways you configure.
Course bundles — Sell several courses together for one bundled price—“bootcamp packs” or value SKUs—with enrollment logic tied to the pack.
Advanced coupons & upsells — Coupon rules beyond a flat discount—minimum order, applicability to chosen courses—and checkout guardrails accordingly.
Dynamic checkout fields — Add configurable checkout questions (text, select, checkbox) with simple visibility rules. Store answers on orders or profiles when you need VAT, referrals, consent, etc.
Advanced assignments — Rubric-style grading guidance and uploads restricted by file types for stricter coursework hand-ins.
Advanced quiz types — Groups / pools of reusable questions when you assemble many quizzes without duplicating stems—think organized question banking.
Live classes (Zoom / Meet / Classroom) — Persist meeting links and platform labels directly on lessons so learners always hit the correct live URL from the syllabus.
Social login — Let learners sign in with Google-style providers when policy allows fewer passwords-only accounts.
SCORM / H5P — Embed packaged SCORM or H5P experiences inside Sikshya lessons—bridge vendor-built interactives inside your Sikshya path.

Scale-band add-ons

Multi-vendor marketplace — Track vendor ownership per course plus platform-vs-seller splits for many independent sellers sharing one storefront.
White label & branding — Tune Sikshya-facing labels and learner/admin chrome toward your agency or customer brand—including login accents where supported.
Webhooks — Deliver signed JSON to your HTTPS endpoints whenever major LMS lifecycle events occur for custom automation backends.
Zapier — First-class Zapier workflow entry points so Sikshya events can fan into thousands of Zap actions without bespoke code projects.
Email marketing (Mailchimp / MailerLite) — Keep marketing lists synced from enrollments/completions so campaigns react to Sikshya learning milestones.
Public API & API keys — Issue revocable secrets for bespoke apps/partners integrating over REST without sharing WordPress passwords.
Multisite & network license tools — Guidance surfaces for multisite admins mapping licenses across subsites on true WordPress networks.
Enterprise reporting — Automated weekly KPI-style email rollups aimed at inbox-friendly executive snapshots—pair with analytics exports when you need detail too.
Multilingual (WPML / Weglot) — Bridges Sikshya’s front-end/interface strings into popular translation stacks so multi‑language sites localize consistently beside your theme/content.

Shortcodes Sikshya registers the shortcodes below. Paste them into any page, post, or widget that runs WordPress shortcodes (Shortcode block, Classic editor, or a theme template that calls do_shortcode). Attribute names are lowercase unless noted. Quick reference

Sikshya Courses block (or [sikshya_courses]) — Grid or list of published courses (same card UI as the catalog).
Sikshya Login block (or [sikshya_login]) — Sign-in form (Sikshya auth handler; errors stay on the same page).
Sikshya Registration block (or [sikshya_registration]) — Create a Sikshya student account; optional instructor intent submits a pending teaching application.

In the block editor, open the Sikshya block category or search for “Sikshya”. Each block exposes the same settings as the matching shortcode attributes in the sidebar; front-end output is identical to the shortcode. [sikshya_courses] What it does: Queries published courses and renders them with the same course card partial used on archives and the catalog. Attributes (all optional except where a default is listed):

per_page — Number of courses per page. Default 9. Minimum 1, maximum 50.
columns — Layout hint. 3 forces a three-column grid; other positive values (up to 6) adjust the auto grid; 0 or omitted uses the default auto layout.
view — grid or list. Default grid.
category — Filter by course category taxonomy slug (not the numeric ID).
tag — Filter by course tag taxonomy slug.
search — Free-text search string (same idea as the catalog search).
orderby — date, title, or price. Default date.
order — asc or desc. Default desc.
pagination — 1 (show paging) or 0 (single page). Default 1. When enabled, page links use the query argument sikshya_courses_page so paging does not clash with the main query.

Examples [sikshya_courses] [sikshya_courses per_page="12" view="grid" category="web-design" orderby="price" order="asc" pagination="1"] [sikshya_courses view="list" search="wordpress" pagination="0"] [sikshya_login] What it does: Renders an email-or-username + password form that authenticates through Sikshya’s admin-post handler (wp_signon). Failed logins show a notice on the same URL (no redirect to wp-login.php). Used on the virtual login page and inside checkout. Attributes:

redirect_to — Absolute or relative URL after successful login. Validated with wp_validate_redirect. If empty, the handler falls back to the HTTP referer, then the site home URL.

Examples [sikshya_login] [sikshya_login redirect_to="/my-account/"] [sikshya_login redirect_to="https://example.com/checkout/"] [sikshya_registration] What it does: Renders a registration form (display name optional, email, password). Creates a WordPress user with the Sikshya student role, then triggers the same new-user email notifications WordPress sends after core registration (wp_send_new_user_notifications, admin + user). Intended for checkout (“Create account”) and custom landing pages. Attributes:

type — student or instructor. Default student. instructor does not assign the instructor role: the account is a student and a pending instructor application is recorded (same meta as the account “Apply to teach” flow). An administrator approves applications in the dashboard; only then is the sikshya_instructor role added.
redirect_to — Same behavior as [sikshya_login] after successful registration.

Developers: Filter sikshya_send_new_user_notifications (bool, user ID) to disable core emails if you replace them with your own. Examples [sikshya_registration] [sikshya_registration type="student"] [sikshya_registration type="instructor" redirect_to="/courses/"] Use of third-party services Features you enable may connect to services you configure. Examples:

Stripe — Terms of service · Privacy
PayPal — User agreement · Privacy
Embedded or linked video — YouTube, Vimeo, or other hosts may apply their own embed terms, cookies, or analytics; see each provider’s policies.

Optional usage insights (opt-in): Sikshya may include optional, aggregated usage insights to help prioritize improvements. It stays off unless you enable it, is designed not to collect learner personally identifiable information, and is described in full (what is sent, where it goes, and how to disable) in the Sikshya documentation—privacy & usage. Other optional connections added in future releases will be listed in the changelog and documented on Mantrabrain / Sikshya docs when applicable.

1.0.5 - 2026-05-31 Vendor + readme hygiene

Composer: composer/installers moved from require to require-dev — it's a Composer build-time plugin, not a runtime dependency, so it had no business shipping to customer sites. The runtime require list is now just PHP 7.4+ and firebase/php-jwt ^6.10 — the bare minimum the plugin actually uses at runtime.
Build pipeline: build.sh already ran composer install --no-dev --optimize-autoloader before zipping, but the working tree now also reflects production-only deps; a fresh checkout's vendor/ weighs in at ~716 KB instead of the previous 78 MB.
Readme: full restructure with a marketing-funnel section order — "Why choose Sikshya?" promoted above the fold; Pro CTA → catalog → competitor comparisons → developer reference flow; new "Compatible with your stack" callout naming Gutenberg, Elementor, Divi; 4 new FAQs (page-builder compatibility, migration from LearnDash/Tutor/LearnPress, mobile-responsiveness, GDPR).
Readme: all 36 distinct feature pages on mantrabrain.com/plugins/sikshya-lms/ are now deep-linked (Free Course Builder, Video & Text Lessons, Quizzes, Course Certificates, Native Checkout + 31 Pro add-ons), each with feature-specific UTM campaign so analytics attribute click-throughs back to the originating section.
Readme: documentation host migrated from docs.mantrabrain.com/sikshya-wordpress-plugin/ to sikshya.mantrabrain.com/docs/; product page URL aligned with /plugins/sikshya-lms/ and "Explore Pro" + "Pricing & plans" CTAs route directly to /pricing/.
Known issue: firebase/php-jwt ^6.10 has a low-severity advisory (CVE-2025-45769, "weak encryption"). The fix requires a major bump to v7.x — slated for the next release after we verify the API delta against JwtAuthService.

1.0.4 - 2026-05-31 Learn page — production sprint

Quiz auto-save: mid-attempt answers now persist via a new POST /sikshya/v1/me/quiz-save endpoint and auto_save_data column — a refresh no longer wipes 30 minutes of work. Hydrates on resume.
Lesson transcripts: new _sikshya_lesson_transcript_url and _sikshya_lesson_transcript_text meta with admin UI in the React lesson editor and a calm <details> disclosure beside video / audio players.
Per-question explanations: new _sikshya_question_explanation meta surfaced as a "Why?" disclosure after grading on the Review answers view.
Per-type score breakdown: results card now shows multiple-choice / essay / matching / ordering subtotals so learners see where they slipped.
Course-completion CTA hook: new sikshya_learn_course_completion_cta action above the tabs strip for Pro Certificates Advanced to slot a celebratory card.
Quiz client validation: warns about unanswered questions before submit and scrolls to the first miss.
Ordering questions: 36×36 touch buttons + Alt+↑/↓ keyboard reorder.
Tabs ARIA: role="tab", aria-controls, aria-selected, tabindex, role="tabpanel", aria-labelledby, hidden mirrored on lesson + quiz templates.
Media fallback: video / audio embeds now render a graceful "open in a new tab" panel when the source fails to load.
Assignment dropzone: plain-text "Allowed: pdf, docx · Max N MB per file" hint above the dropzone.
Course title + permalink (target=_blank) added to the Learn sidebar so learners always know which course they're in. Learn page — mobile
Content header sticky behaviour fixed for both lesson and quiz pages using display: contents on the wrapping section (the section was zero-height on the lesson page, killing sticky's pin range).
Tabs strip: edge-fade gradients + scroll-padding signal "more here, scroll to reveal" without needing a visible scrollbar.
Topbar progress: compact 56px chip in the header; on mobile the topbar scrolls away with the page while the content header pins.
Header chrome trimmed on phones: hides chapter inline + focus toggle + 5 quiz meta pills so the 52px fixed row never wraps under the topbar. Account page
Top-right user menu: now avatar-only (name + email + caret hidden); dropdown z-index lifted and parent overflow: hidden removed so it stops being clipped behind content.
Form-status pill: empty pseudo-class hides the chip on initial load (was rendering as a phantom bordered chip next to "Save profile" on the marketplace view).
Focus-visible ring on the avatar button. Course landing
"Expand all / Collapse all" button now ships with unfold-more / unfold-less icons (Material-style double-chevron pair).
Label wrapped in its own span so the icon swap survives JS text updates. Schema + infra
SCHEMA_VERSION bumped 1.9.0 → 1.10.0 with idempotent migration adding auto_save_data to sikshya_quiz_attempts.
Migrations now run lazily on admin_init (handles drop-in deploys without re-activation).
sikshya_course_completed action gains an optional 3rd $enrollment_id arg (additive — existing 2-arg listeners unaffected).
display: contents mobile-sticky pattern: cleaner than absolutely-positioned shims and respects the document scroll model. Hardening sprint (carry-over from internal audit)
60+ patches across security, capability checks, post_status guards on learner endpoints, email-listener wiring, perf, i18n, and admin column polish — see AUDIT_REGRESSION_TESTS.md for the full ledger.
Compatibility: no breaking API changes; all public hooks remain backwards compatible.

1.0.3 - 2026-05-08

Readme: WordPress.org listing refresh—SEO-oriented short description and tags; Quick links (documentation on Mantrabrain, demos, pricing, community); structured sections (At a glance, self-hosted LMS, FAQs including block editor and optional usage insights); third-party services and privacy disclosure aligned with docs.
Readme: plugin listing title aligned with WordPress plugin directory expectations; screenshot captions tuned for LMS and checkout keywords; Installation and security reporting guidance clarified.
Plugin metadata: version bump; default documentation URLs in Plugin API / admin bootstrap now point to https://sikshya.mantrabrain.com/docs/.

1.0.2 - 2026-05-04

Admin (React shell): Grading & submissions and gradebook screens — toolbar layout fixes so Course, Search, and Status filters align cleanly; contextual helper copy moved below the filter row; clearer sidebar icons for Gradebook and related entries.
Marketing: Pro upgrade notice now uses “up to 50% off” instead of “50%+ OFF” for clearer, defensible wording (classic admin notice + in-app strip).
Public: course category index and taxonomy routing improvements for a better category archive experience.
Build: refreshed compiled admin JavaScript/CSS from current sources.

1.0.0.1 - 2026-05-02

Certificate: fixes for issues in the admin certificate designer (layout, editing, and related flows).
Build: refreshed compiled admin React assets from the latest sources.

1.0.0 - 2026-04-30

Initial public release.
Core course, lesson, quiz, and question model with builder-oriented admin UI.
Student and instructor roles with capability-safe management surfaces.
Baseline commerce: Stripe/PayPal-oriented checkout, coupons, orders.
Learner templates, account views, and progress-oriented flows.
REST-aligned services where documented for integrations.
Default certificate presets (Regalia & Vertex) ship without QR blocks; QR-style verification remains documented as a Pro-oriented enhancement.
Requires PHP 7.4+ and WordPress 6.0+; tested on current stable WordPress releases.
Checkout (with Sikshya Pro Dynamic Checkout Fields): optional server-rendered dynamic field markup—JavaScript attaches listeners and visibility without rebuilding the form in the browser; includes CheckoutDynamicFieldsView and refactored checkout helpers (dfBindDynamicFields, dfSyncValuesFromHost).
