LifterLMS Conditional Tags

These conditional tags can be used in the same way that the core WordPress conditional tags can be used, except these conditional tags apply specifically to LifterLMS templates and content types.

Each conditional function returns either true if the condition is met or false if the condition is not met.

For example, if is_course() if used on a template for a LifterLMS Course, it will return true, but if it is used anywhere else (like on a WordPress page) it will return false.

Conditional tags only work after WordPress post data has been retrieved from the database. If you use a tag before the main WP_Query has run the condition will always return false because there’s no data to check against.

It’s best to add conditional tags to your theme or child theme’s template files. You can also add conditional tags within functions that are loaded in your theme’s functions.php or in plugins but always be careful that your tags are run using a hook that runs after the WP_Query.
