Introducing the LearnDash DevClub

I’m thrilled to announce the LearnDash DevClub—a friendly, collaborative space for developers who extend, refine, or customize LearnDash. Whether you’re creating new integrations, building add-ons, or handling complicated migrations, this community is all about sharing insights, supporting each other, and driving innovation together.

But first thing’s first…

Who am I?

I’m Taylor, Product Owner at LearnDash—a tech enthusiast with a passion for improving online education. When I’m not immersed in product strategy or chatting with our dev team, you’ll likely find me playing with our StellarWP products or out walking with my dogs.

Why a LearnDash DevClub?

Over the years, a thriving community of expert implementers, integration developers, and add-on creators has formed around LearnDash. It’s grown so large that it became challenging to maintain the close connections we value. Meanwhile, our ambitious roadmap for the coming year calls for renewed collaboration—which is why we’re reintroducing Release Candidate testing.

The DevClub is our solution to both challenges: a dedicated space to strengthen relationships, share insights, and, ultimately, create better experiences for the customers we all support.

So, what is it? 

Think of this club as your go-to hub for staying on top of LearnDash developments, exchanging best practices, sharing your insights in focus groups, and joining in on release candidate testing. As part of this club, you’ll gain a direct line to fellow devs and insider perspectives—so we can all grow together.
