Sound familiar?
Building every course title, description, lesson, category, tag, and media link one by one inside LifterLMS eats hours you don't have.
LifterLMS has no built-in CSV importer, forcing course creators to copy-paste data field by field with zero automation.
Adding ten new courses or refreshing existing ones means repeating the same manual process every single time.
Bulk-Import Any Course Catalogue into LifterLMS Instantly
The LifterLMS CSV Course Import Plugin gives you a ready-made CSV template — fill it in like a spreadsheet, hit upload, and watch every course, lesson, category, tag, featured image, video, and audio field land exactly where it belongs inside LifterLMS. No copy-pasting, no clicking through individual screens.
Now with Google Sheets support (released April 9, 2026), you can collaborate on your course catalogue in the cloud and import directly — making it the fastest way to build and scale an eLearning site on WordPress.

Frequently asked questions
Does this plugin work with the free version of LifterLMS?
Yes. The plugin is an extension for LifterLMS and works alongside the core free LifterLMS plugin installed on your WordPress site.
Can I import from Google Sheets as well as CSV?
Yes. The April 9, 2026 update added direct Google Sheets import, so you can manage your course catalogue in the cloud and push it straight to LifterLMS.
How many domains does the licence cover?
The licence covers one domain. If you need to test on a staging site first and then deploy to your live site, email the support team and they will issue a one-time additional API key at no extra charge.
What exactly gets imported — does it include lessons, not just courses?
Yes. The plugin imports full course data (title, descriptions, categories, tags, featured image, length, difficulty, video, audio) AND lesson-level data (lesson title, lesson description, video embed URL, audio embed URL, and the Watch the Video field).
Is this a subscription or a one-time purchase?
It is a one-time purchase of $95 USD. There is no recurring fee. Your purchase is subject to the Buyer's Agreement provided at checkout.
I already bought the Excel to LifterLMS Question Importer — is this the same product?
No. The Excel to LifterLMS Question Importer handles quiz questions. This plugin handles full course and lesson creation from a CSV or Google Sheet. They are complementary tools that work well together.
