## Description

**Indigetal Course Workflow Enhancements for Tutor LMS** extends [Tutor LMS](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tutor/)
with practical workflow options for sites that rely on WordPress and Gutenberg. 
It is the **free WordPress.org edition of [TutorPress](https://indigetal.com/tutorpress)**.

Configure everything under **Tutor LMS  Course Workflow**.

#### What this plugin does

**Five optional toggles** on the Course Workflow settings page:

 * **Redirect Backend Course Editing to Gutenberg** — When enabled, backend course
   editing links open the WordPress block editor instead of Tutor’s default editing
   flow.
 * **Redirect Frontend Dashboard Editing to Gutenberg** — When enabled, course editing
   links in the frontend instructor dashboard open the block editor.
 * **Remove Button to Frontend Builder in Course Editor** — Hides the frontend builder
   button in the course editor when you want a Gutenberg-first experience.
 * **Enable Discussion Tab in Lessons** — Adds a Discussion tab to the lesson sidebar
   and presents lesson comments using standard WordPress comment patterns. Helpful
   when you want to use third-party comment or moderation plugins.
 * **Add Media Library & H5P Links to Instructor Dashboard** — Adds links on the
   frontend instructor menu to the WordPress Media Library and H5P editor in wp-
   admin, so frontend instructors can manage media and create H5P content when you
   allow backend access for those tools.

**Included whenever the plugin is active:**

 * **Lessons submenu** — Adds a Lessons item under Tutor LMS in wp-admin for quicker
   access to lesson posts.
 * **Co-instructor editing in Gutenberg** — Co-instructors assigned on a shared 
   course can open and save courses and lessons in the block editor.

#### Summary: alignment and choice

At a higher level, this plugin helps in two ways:

**Alignment** — Supports sites that want Tutor LMS course content to work more like
the rest of WordPress: block editor routing where you choose it, lesson comments
presented in a familiar pattern, and instructor access to media and H5P tools from
the frontend dashboard when needed.

**Choice** — Each major workflow change is a toggle. Enable only what fits your 
site. Leave the rest off to keep Tutor LMS defaults.

## Installation

#### Requirements

 * WordPress 6.0 or greater
 * PHP 7.4 or greater
 * [Tutor LMS](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tutor/) (plugin slug: `tutor`)

#### Setup

 1. Install and activate **Tutor LMS**.
 2. Install and activate **Indigetal Course Workflow Enhancements for Tutor LMS**.
 3. Open **Tutor LMS  Course Workflow**.
 4. Enable the toggles you need—for example, Gutenberg redirects for block-editor-first
    authoring, the Discussion tab for comment plugins, or dashboard links for frontend
    instructors who manage media or H5P.

## FAQ

### What is the Discussion tab for?

It adds a Discussion tab to the lesson sidebar and surfaces lesson comments in a
layout aligned with standard WordPress comment patterns. Sites that use comment 
plugins or want a familiar discussion experience on lessons often enable this toggle.

### What do the Media Library and H5P dashboard links do?

They add links on the frontend instructor dashboard menu to the WordPress Media 
Library and H5P editor in wp-admin. Use them when frontend instructors need to manage
uploads across courses or create H5P content—not only select items that already 
exist. Leave the toggle off if instructors should not access those backend screens.

### Can I leave all toggles off?

Yes. The Lessons submenu and co-instructor Gutenberg support remain active without
enabling any toggles.

### What is full TutorPress, and where can I get it?

**Full TutorPress** is the paid plugin from [Indigetal WebCraft](https://indigetal.com/tutorpress).
It includes everything in this free plugin **plus** the Gutenberg Course Builder(
curriculum metabox, course settings panels, quiz modals, and related admin tools),
and premium integrations.

It is not distributed on WordPress.org. Learn more and purchase at [indigetal.com/tutorpress](https://indigetal.com/tutorpress).
When you install full TutorPress, deactivate this plugin—your Course Workflow toggle
values are preserved. Do not run both plugins at the same time.

### Will my settings survive if I upgrade to full TutorPress?

Yes. Both plugins use the `tutorpress_settings` option.

### Does uninstall delete my TutorPress settings?

No. Uninstall removes only plugin-specific housekeeping options.
