How to add a widget for course registration and student account login

With the SendPulse website builder, you can use the “Course login” widget to add buttons for course enrollment or log in to a student account to the course registration page with your own design.

For example, you can create a multi-page site about your school or an expert, link various courses to it, and present them in the required style.

You can add this widget only to a site with a linked course. To do it, go to the course site, create a new page of your site with a linked course, and add the widget to it.

Add the element

Add the Course login widget to your template.

Select a course

Select a course to add buttons to its page.

Select and customize the buttons

In the Form display options field, select your widget forms (Sign In, Sign Up, or both).

Sign up

This button leads to your course registration page. You can add fields to your registration form and customize your registration button.

Once a user fills out your registration form, they will receive a confirmation email with their login data. They will be able to log in to their account and start learning after following the link specified in your email.
