 * Welp, we never claimed to add them as buttons so that’s why an upgrade didn’t
   turn them into buttons!
 * If you want them to be buttons you can add some custom CSS to your site that 
   turns them into buttons.
 * Here’s a freebie:
 *     ```
       .llms-sd-nav .llms-sd-link {
           background: #2295ff;
           border-radius: 4px;
           padding: 10px;
           color: white;
       }
   
       .llms-sd-nav .llms-sd-link:hover {
           background: #0077e4;
       }
       ```
   
 * Some additional CSS to hide the separators if you want them gone now that you
   have buttons:
 *     ```
       .llms-student-dashboard .llms-sd-item .llms-sep { display: none; }
       ```

 * What on earth do I do with custom css? Read this: [https://lifterlms.com/docs/add-custom-css-using-wordpress-customizer/](https://lifterlms.com/docs/add-custom-css-using-wordpress-customizer/)
 * Hope that helps!

 * This look great… is there a way to change the color of the active button?
    or
   the background of inactive ones?

 * `.current` is the class on active ones
 * There’s no inactive class so add your background color to ALL of them and change
   it for the active ones
 * Element inspector is your friend for getting classes to add custom CSS: [https://developer.chrome.com/devtools](https://developer.chrome.com/devtools)
