The LearnDash Global Lesson Settings<\/strong> screen allows site admins to manage settings that apply to all lessons<\/strong> across the site. These global options help standardize lesson behavior and structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Access Lesson Settings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Navigate to LearnDash LMS > Lessons<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Click the Settings<\/strong> tab at the top of the page<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n

    If you’re using the course builder<\/a> to organize your lessons, the lesson display settings here don’t apply. You can ignore them. These are simply an alternative way to control the order in which your lessons appear, if you’re not using the course builder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    These settings will apply globally, to all lessons in all courses, but can be overridden on a course-by-course basis in the Course Display and Content Settings<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
