Lesson Navigation

Lesson Navigation​

Renders the outline of the current LearnDash lesson — its topics and quizzes — with completion status icons. The outline updates as the learner progresses.

BeaverDash - Modules - Lesson - Lesson Navigation

Usage​

On a lesson Themer template — Place in a sidebar or at the top of the lesson to show learners a map of the topics remaining in the current lesson. Scoped to the current lesson only — unlike Course Navigation, it does not show the full course.

Expand: Current — Collapses completed topic sections and shows only the current topic open. Useful for longer lessons with many topics.

Enabling quiz visibility — Both quiz levels (lesson and topic) default to off (confirmed in source). Enable only the levels needed to avoid cluttering the outline.

How it works​

The outline reflects topics and quizzes within the current lesson only. Status icons update automatically. Quiz items at lesson and topic level are hidden by default.
