You will be presented with a variety of potential layouts, making it extremely easy to create a visually attractive LearnDash lesson with the click of the button.

Once you select your block, all you need to do is add your content, as shown below so let’s start making a lesson.

First, we will set the title for the lesson,  I have named this one  “Introduction to web development”. In the image below I have shown the block editor mode and the preview mode side by side.

In this step, I have added a Heading using the K2 Block’s heading widget. You Can easily drag and drop the blocks you like, to create custom lessons.

In the image, I have shown the editor and the preview mode.

In this step I’m going to use the K2 Blocks Call to Action widget to show the contents of the lesson. You can click to start the individual lesson by click on the  ‘Start’ button

Similarly you can design the page in many forms, we can add the progress bar widget from the K2 block. This widget can be used to demonstrate the percentage of skills on your resume. I am going to use this widget to show how much you can learn about the specific technology from this course.

You can customize the widget size and the amount of percentage you want to show using the block setting in the top-right corner.
