Depending on your preferences, you will be able to enable user verification so that registrations are validated by the administrator. In addition, the extension allows you to hide the WordPress admin bar for particular user roles.

Second, Uncanny toolkit allows users to pick up where they left off in learning their course on LearnDash. To do this, they will only need to click a single button. Note that the login and logout redirection feature is also available. It allows users to be sent to a URL as soon as they want to access courses or when they have finished their session.

Third, depending on whether a user is logged in or not, you have the ability to control the visibility of menu entries and use short codes to show or hide content. Also, if you are frustrated with logged-in users seeing login links, you can add links to menus and pages or widgets with a shortcode.

The Uncanny toolkit plugin helps you view courses and the rest of your site as a specific user. Here, there is no need to enter any password. This highly compatible extension automatically moves to the next step when the user clicks on the "Click here to continue" button.

Uncanny toolkit comes with a lot of features in its free version. One of them is the non-registration redirection. As the name suggests, this is an option that redirects readers to a specific URL when they are not registered for a course. The extension uses a short code to display a list of all certificates obtained by a user. This is an interesting option to have an overview of the progress on the LearnDash platform.

Finally, Uncanny makes it easy to identify membership in a LearnDash group through a user's profile page.

In addition, the extension allows you to choose the administration tools accessible from the top bar for instructors. In case there are many buttons for you and other users, Uncanny toolkit pro allows you to reduce or extend the bar.

As learners progress, they like to keep an eye on the goal and determine how much effort they need to put in to achieve it. The Uncanny toolkit plugin allows you to set up a progress bar at the bottom. Finally, you will have the opportunity to add a timer to your LearnDash platform to boost your students' motivation. It will allow them to calculate their speed and complete their learning in the shortest possible time.
