After development of our site comprised of LearnDash and Memberpress I needed a way to pull in our content from Vimeo. Both LD and MP are pretty horrible when trying to do this natively. Pfft. Enter Vimeotheque. I had been considering this plugin all along but waited until I had the rest of the site developed. Once I got into it I found that for my purposes, with LearnDash I couldn’t easily link between the two for courses. Sigh… here’s where the fantastic support comes in. After a few detailed emails with Constantin at Code Flavors, we figured out where the disconnect was and … BOOM! I have LearnDash add-on that imports into my LMS as a lesson. The import feature is great but I can’t say I’ve used it for other than importing videos on a manual basis. But if there is something wrong, I know if I reach out he’ll have an answer.
