How to Stay Updated​

To make sure you're always using the latest version of Lifter Elements, follow these best practices:

  • Enable Automatic Updates: If your hosting environment supports it, consider enabling automatic updates to avoid missing important patches or enhancements.
  • Review the Changelog: Before updating, check the changelog for any major feature changes or adjustments that might impact your site’s functionality. This ensures you’re aware of new features or potential issues.
  • Test Updates in Staging: For significant updates, it’s recommended to test them in a staging environment first, particularly if your LMS is handling active learners and courses.

Releases (Stable)​

1.7.0 - Apr 29th, 2026​

The LifterLMS Groups integration is now rolled into Lifter Elements core — previously available as a separate lifter-elements-groups-integration plugin. This release adds 5 new widgets, 14 new dynamic tags, 4 new conditional-logic conditions, and enhances the existing Course Access Plans and Access Plan Button widgets to support group-enrolment seat counts.

  • New widget: Groups List — directory grid of groups, with visibility and enrollment filters (the "Enrolled only" filter replaces the need for a separate "My Groups" widget)
  • New widget: Group Members — member grid with avatar, name, and role
  • New widget: Group Page Course Card — auto-detects course vs membership
  • New widget: Group Invitation Link — button linking to the open invitation URL
  • New widget: Leave Group — confirmation form for members to unenroll
  • New dynamic tags (14): Group Name, Description, Visibility, Member Count, Seats, Pending Invitations Count, URL, Logo, Banner, Invitation Link, Course Title, Course URL, Course Image, Current User Group Role — see Dynamic Tags reference
  • New conditions (4): User Group Enrollment, User Group Role, Group Visibility, Group Seat Availability — see Conditional Logic in 4.5
  • Course Access Plans / Access Plan Button: when an access plan has the LifterLMS "Group enrolment" option enabled, the widget now displays a seat-count selector before the enroll button
  • Theme Builder: the llms_group post type is now supported as a Theme Builder location, enabling custom group page templates
  • i18n: text domain unified to lifter-elements (was lifter-elements-groups in the standalone integration plugin)
Requires LifterLMS Groups

The groups widgets, dynamic tags, and conditions only appear when the LifterLMS Groups add-on is installed and activated. Lifter Elements will continue to function normally for sites without it.
