LearnPress Tracking

📋 Overview

The LearnPress Tracking add-on connects Ultimate Affiliate Pro with LearnPress — the popular free LMS plugin for WordPress. Once enabled, the integration automatically assigns referral commissions every time a visitor referred by an affiliate completes a course purchase through LearnPress.

Because the module fully inherits your existing Ultimate Affiliate Pro settings — commission rules, ranks, cookie duration, and payout methods — there is no duplicate configuration. Enable it once and referral tracking starts working immediately.

🔄
Automatic Assignment Referrals are recorded as soon as LearnPress confirms the course purchase.

📦 Installation

ℹ️
This guide assumes that Ultimate Affiliate Pro is already installed, activated, and licensed on your WordPress site. If not, please complete that setup first before continuing.

The LearnPress Tracking integration is delivered as a separate add-on plugin (ZIP file) that you install on top of Ultimate Affiliate Pro. Follow the steps below to get it running.

Step-by-step: Installing the LearnPress Tracking Add-on

  1. 1

    Download the Add-on ZIP — Log in to your account on ultimateaffiliate.pro, go to My Account → Downloads, and download the LearnPress Tracking add-on ZIP file.

  2. 2

    Upload via WordPress Admin — In your WordPress admin go to Plugins › Add New › Upload Plugin. Click Choose File, select the downloaded add-on ZIP, then click Install Now.

  3. 3

    Activate the Add-on — Once installed, click Activate Plugin. No separate license activation is needed for the add-on — it inherits the license from your main Ultimate Affiliate Pro installation.

  4. 4

    Confirm LearnPress is Active — Make sure the LearnPress plugin is already installed and activated. The add-on requires LearnPress to be present to function correctly.

🔌 Enable the LearnPress Integration

Once the add-on and LearnPress are both active, enabling tracking takes just a few clicks:

  1. 1

    From your WordPress admin sidebar, go to Ultimate Affiliate Pro › Integrations.

  2. 2

    Locate the LearnPress card in the Integrations list. Click on it to open its settings panel.

  3. 3

    The LearnPress Tracking settings page will load, showing the Source Custom Name field and the LearnPress Account Page section. Configure the options as needed (see Configuration below).

  4. 4

    Click Save Changes. The integration is now active — Ultimate Affiliate Pro will begin tracking all LearnPress course purchases made through affiliate referral links.

💡
You can verify that the integration is working by making a test purchase through a referral link. The referral should appear under Ultimate Affiliate Pro › Referrals within a few seconds.

⚙️ Configuration

The LearnPress integration settings are split into two main areas: Tracking Settings and LearnPress Account Page.

Access all settings at: Ultimate Affiliate Pro › Integrations › LearnPress or Ultimate Affiliate Pro › Modules › LearnPress Tracking

General Settings

SettingDescription
Source Custom Name A custom label displayed on the Affiliate Dashboard to identify this referral source. Defaults to LearnPress. You can rename it to match your branding (e.g. “Online Courses” or “Academy”).

LearnPress Account Page

This section lets you embed an Affiliate Account tab directly inside the LearnPress Student Dashboard, so affiliated students don’t need to visit a separate page to access their affiliate tools.

Activate / Hold Affiliate Section

Toggle this option to show or hide the Affiliate Account tab inside the LearnPress Student Dashboard.

Enabled — A new tab will appear in the student’s LearnPress dashboard.
Disabled — No affiliate tab is added; affiliates use the standard Ultimate Affiliate Pro Affiliate Portal.
SettingDescription
Menu LabelThe text label used for the new tab inside the Student Dashboard. Defaults to Affiliate Account Page. Change it to suit your site’s language and tone.
Menu PositionControls the order of the tab within the Student Dashboard navigation. Enter a numeric value — lower numbers appear first. Default is 3.

Affiliated Students Behavior

This setting controls what students who are also affiliates see when they click the Affiliate tab inside the Student Dashboard.

Display ModeBehavior
Show Affiliate PortalRenders the full Ultimate Affiliate Pro Affiliate Portal content inline inside the Student Dashboard tab. The student does not leave the LearnPress area.
Redirect to Affiliate Portal PageRedirects the student to the dedicated Ultimate Affiliate Pro Affiliate Portal page set in your plugin settings. Best when you want a full-screen affiliate experience.
💡
Recommendation: Use Show Affiliate Portal for a seamless student experience. Use Redirect to Affiliate Portal Page if your portal has advanced customizations that rely on a full-page layout.

Non-Affiliate Users

When the Affiliate Account tab is enabled, non-affiliate students will also see the tab in their Student Dashboard. Instead of displaying affiliate tools, you can show them custom content — for example, an invitation to join your affiliate program.

Enabled — Non-affiliate students see the tab with your Custom Content defined below.
SettingDescription
Custom Content for Non-Affiliate Users A rich-text editor where you can write any message or call-to-action shown to students who are not yet affiliates. Supports HTML and shortcodes. You can use the Ultimate Affiliate Pro shortcode to show a one-click join button directly inside this tab.
ℹ️
If you disable the Non-Affiliate Users toggle, students who are not affiliates will see the tab but the Affiliate Account Page content area will be empty.

🔍 How Tracking Works

Understanding the end-to-end tracking flow helps you confirm that everything is set up correctly and troubleshoot any edge cases.

  1. 1

    Affiliate shares their referral link — Each affiliate has a unique referral URL (e.g. yoursite.com/?uap_ref=john). They share this link in blog posts, emails, social media, or course reviews.

  2. 2

    Visitor clicks the link — Ultimate Affiliate Pro sets a tracking cookie in the visitor’s browser. The cookie duration is controlled by the Ultimate Affiliate Pro › Settings › Cookie Duration setting.

  3. 3

    Visitor purchases a LearnPress course — When the purchase is confirmed by LearnPress (order status: Completed), Ultimate Affiliate Pro intercepts the event via the LearnPress Tracking add-on.

  4. 4

    Commission is automatically recorded — Ultimate Affiliate Pro matches the purchase to the referring affiliate, applies the correct commission rule from the affiliate’s rank or product rate, and logs the referral as Pending or Approved based on your settings.

  5. 5

    Affiliate sees the referral — The referral appears in real time on the affiliate’s dashboard under Referrals. The source column will show the Source Custom Name you set (default: LearnPress).

  6. 6

    Admin reviews & pays out — You can review all LearnPress-sourced referrals under Ultimate Affiliate Pro › Referrals and pay affiliates via PayPal, Stripe, or Bank Transfer using the Payouts section.

⚠️
Important: Commissions are only recorded for paid course purchases. Free course enrollments without a completed payment are not tracked as referrals.

📊 Viewing LearnPress Referrals

All referrals generated through LearnPress are recorded in the main Ultimate Affiliate Pro Referrals log alongside referrals from other integrations. You can filter them by source to see only LearnPress activity.

  1. 1

    Go to Ultimate Affiliate Pro › Referrals in your WordPress admin.

  2. 2

    Use the Source filter column to search for the label you set in Source Custom Name (default: LearnPress).

  3. 3

    You can also go to Ultimate Affiliate Pro › Reports to see revenue totals broken down by integration source over any date range.

ℹ️
Each affiliate can also view their own LearnPress referrals from their personal Affiliate Portal → Referrals tab. The source column will display the custom name you configured.
