Update: Plugin author responded promptly and took appropriate action. I added two stars in consideration of that. We will try the plugin again after new version is released. Original: Strange things happen using this plugin with LearnDash Video Progression and Vimeo. It doesn't automatically mark the lesson completed after the video has been fully viewed. If you hide the mark complete button, as we were, users can't progress as a result. I spent a lot of time tracking down the problem since the settings are correct in LearnDash but this plugin is overriding those settings without any notice in the admin. Disabling this plugin resolved the issue. There is also an existing unresolved topic in the support threads about this with no reply from the author.

Good stuff, just works, a nice simple approach for adult users, thank you! Would be really nice of course if users could choose to "untick" manually, if they haven't really completed, just clicked/glanced through, or even mark a lesson/topic for review like can happen with questions on the quizzes 🙂

The plugin works as advertised and is very simple to install with no setup involved. In fact, it works better than the Uncanny Owl Autocomplete plugin (which is now a paid plugin).

I would like to thank the developers for this awesome plugin. I'm also using your other plugin called Visibility Control for LearnDash. Also, could you please add some settings interface.
