Hiding LearnDash Course Navigation

Introduction

By default, BuddyBoss does not provide an option to hide the LearnDash course navigation (Next and Previous lesson links). Using a simple CSS snippet, you can remove the course navigation links from LearnDash lessons to create a cleaner and more focused learning experience.

Custom Workaround

Follow the steps below to hide the LearnDash course navigation:

1. Go to BuddyBoss > Theme Options
2. Under Custom Codes, enable CSS
3. Append the following:

.bb-lms-header .learndash_next_prev_link { 

    display: none !important; 

}

4. Save changes.

Note: Any modifications are considered custom work already. Know more about our Support policy here: https://buddyboss.com/support-policy/

Troubleshooting and FAQs
