Troubleshooting and FAQs

Q: Will this hide the actual course progress for users?

A: No. This only hides the visual progress display. LearnDash will still track user progress in the background.

Q: The progress display is still showing after adding the CSS. What should I do?

A: Clear your site cache and browser cache. If the issue persists, submit a ticket to the support team for assistance.

Q: Does this affect course completion or reporting in LearnDash?

A: No. This change is purely visual and does not affect course logic, completion tracking, or reports.

Q: Will this work for both logged-in and logged-out users?

A: Yes. This CSS hides the progress display for all users regardless of login status.

Q: Does this apply to mobile devices as well?

A: Yes. The snippet applies to all screen sizes unless overridden by other custom CSS.
