Online course communities often look for ways to keep student names consistent across platforms. The LifterLMS Discord Plugin by ExpressTech Software offers a new feature designed to do just that.
Now you can sync each student’s full name from the WordPress database directly to their nickname in Discord.
Why This Matters
- Consistent Student Identification
Course creators can ensure that every student is recognized by the same name on their WordPress site and Discord channels. - Stronger Community Engagement
Students often prefer having their real or full names displayed, which can foster a more personal learning experience. - Automated Profile Updates
Any time a student updates their name on WordPress, it automatically reflects in their Discord nickname.
Key Benefits
- Easy Setup
Once installed and connected, the plugin handles the rest. No manual syncing is required. - Reduced Confusion
If a student uses multiple usernames on Discord, it’s clear who’s who when their WordPress name appears on Discord servers. - Seamless WordPress Integration
The plugin works seamlessly with LifterLMS, letting you focus on teaching rather than dealing with inconsistent user data.
