Total TalentLMS API Integration
Give Your eLearners A Better Experience!
TalentLMS provides their own WordPress Plugin, so you may be wondering: What makes this TalentLMS API Integration solution any different?
The key difference is that this TalentLMS API Integration solution provides 100% Integration of TalentLMS’ API into WordPress.
Your eLearners will be able to register accounts, enroll in courses and groups, as well as track their course progression as they engage in your eLearning content directly from your WordPress website.
TalentLMS Course Overview
Customizable Templates
Display a list of available TalentLMS Courses anywhere on your website with a custom shortcode.
Templates are 100% customizable to change how the TalentLMS Courses are displayed on your WordPress website.
If a user is not enrolled, they will be shown a “Purchase Course” link. A lightbox screen will pop-up to allow the user to purchase the course through PayPal.
TalentLMS My Course Overview
Cleaner Design
Using a separate shortcode, you can display a list of courses that a user is already enrolled in. From here, the user can navigate to see in-depth Course Progression information.
Users will also be able to use a manual sync button that will permit them to ensure they always have the most up-to-date TalentLMS information.
Future improvements may combine the Courses and My Course page to streamline the experience.
TalentLMS Unit Overview
Track Unit Progression
With your WordPress website, your eLearners will be able to track all of their TalentLMS Unit progression.
From this page, your eLearners can launch the course. A lightbox will pop-up and the user can take your TalentLMS eLearning Courses directly from your WordPress website.
We cannot import Units directly into WordPress and other solutions may navigate your users to TalentLMS, which can impact the overall User Experience.
Launch TalentLMS Courses
Lightbox Pop-Up
To keep your eLearners on your WordPress website, TalentLMS Courses are launched within a lightbox.
Once the user is finished, they can simply close the lightbox and refresh the page (or perform a data sync) to update their TalentLMS Course Progression.
The user will be able to fully navigate your TalentLMS portal from within this lightbox, but they will always begin at the course they launched from your WordPress website.
TalentLMS API Information
Full-Featured Admin Panels
From within your WordPress Administration area, you can get a complete picture of your TalentLMS API Integration.
View the total number of users, courses, categories, groups, your API call limit, how many API calls are remaining, and the last time you performed a full data sync.
At any time, you can also initiate a manual TalentLMS Data Sync to pull down the most up-to-date information. TalentLMS Data is also automatically synced through a WP Cron Task.
TalentLMS Course Overview – Admin
View Synced Courses
You can quickly see which TalentLMS Courses have been imported and the Course ID of those courses.
With the Course ID, you can fine-tune other settings to include or discriminate courses so that only the courses you want imported will be imported.
Information notices are placed to help make the configuration of our TalentLMS API Integration solution easier.
TalentLMS Enrolled User Overview – Admin
Manually Enroll Users
From your WordPress Administration area, you will be able to see which WordPress Users have been synced with TalentLMS Users and how many Courses they have been Enrolled into.
If needed, you can also handle Manual Enrollment by providing the TalentLMS User ID and the TalentLMS Course ID within the form found on this Admin Panel.
Future improvements may include another screen to showcase exactly which TalentLMS Courses the user has enrolled in.
TalentLMS API Integration Settings #1
Tune Data Sync
You will be able to fine-tune the intervals with regards to TalentLMS Data Sync.
If you have fewer users, you can reduce the interval period to permit data syncs to occur more frequently.
User Data is synced periodically when the user is logged in and active on your website. This may cause a slight delay in page load times when the data sync occurs.
TalentLMS API Integration Settings #2
Restrict Courses and Units
You can define which Courses you want to show within your WordPress website as well as which Courses you want to make available to the user to purchase or enroll in.
This feature can be beneficial if you have multiple eLearning subjects and want to split up your TalentLMS eLearning content between multiple WordPress websites.
Future improvements may allow multiple pages to be created to group available courses for a cleaner user experience.
TalentLMS API Integration Settings #3
User Registration
You can choose whether you want to automatically register TalentLMS User Accounts when a New User is created within your WordPress website.
This solution also provides a unique feature which will create WordPress User Accounts when your existing TalentLMS users sign into WordPress using their TalentLMS Login Information.
Any time a user logs in, this solution will also check TalentLMS to see if the user’s email address exists within TalentLMS and will automatically link the two accounts together.
TalentLMS API Integration Settings #4
Enable The Features You Need
A lot of functionality is implemented to be toggled on or off, which can help when you need to modify the level of integration in the future.
This also improves testing as individual features can be tested to ensure it is working properly.
Visit the Dashboard at any time to adjust the level of integration.
TalentLMS API Credentials
Simply Add To Get Started!
You will need to set up our TalentLMS API Integration solution with your API Key and API Domain.
Once you hit save, your TalentLMS data (courses, units, groups, categories) should begin to import.
All Data Syncs will clear out existing data and import fresh data, so you can make adjustments at any time (such as restricting courses) and the next Data Sync will reflect your changes.
Manual TalentLMS User Linking
Different Email Addresses?
As long as your WordPress User is using the same Email Address, that they used on TalentLMS, the two accounts should automatically sync.
In scenarios where a user is using two different Email Addresses, you can edit their WordPress User information and set the TalentLMS User ID.
Once the TalentLMS User ID is set, a link between the WordPress and TalentLMS User Accounts will be created for future Data Syncs.
