  5. Activate the plugin by clicking the Activate button.
  6. Create your first course and start sharing knowledge!

Manual installation

The manual installation method involves downloading the plugin and uploading it to your web server via your favorite file transfer application.

  2. Using an FTP program, or your hosting control panel, upload the unzipped plugin folder to your WordPress installation's wp-content/plugins/ directory.
