AI chatbot for GoodLayers LMS courses and lessons
SleekAI reads the GoodLayers LMS post types like gdlr_lms_course, gdlr_lms_lesson, and gdlr_lms_quiz plus the progress postmeta. Students ask which lesson is next, why a quiz failed, or when their certificate unlocks, and the bot answers from real data with your own OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or OpenRouter API key.

GoodLayers LMS students get a dashboard, not a coach
GoodLayers LMS powers many course sites built on GoodLayers themes. It registers a stack of custom post types: gdlr_lms_course for courses, gdlr_lms_lesson for lessons, gdlr_lms_quiz for quizzes, gdlr_lms_question for the bank, and gdlr_lms_certificate for credentials. Learner progress and quiz results are stored in postmeta and a usermeta map keyed by user_id and course_id. The dashboard surfaces course progress as a percentage and a checkbox list, then stops.
SleekAI maps those post types and postmeta into variables. The bot reads which lessons a student has marked complete, which quiz attempts passed or failed (with score and timestamp), and which certificate is eligible. A display condition scoped to the GoodLayers course post types or the student dashboard URL ensures the bot only appears where it can help. Multibot can run separate course-specific bots, each grounded in its own course content via course_id.
Generic chatbots see the course title and lesson list in the page HTML but nothing else. They cannot say which lesson is next in the configured order, why a quiz attempt failed, or how many points short the student was for the certificate. SleekAI quotes the actual lesson title, attempt score, and certificate rule, and the system instruction keeps it from spoiling future quiz answers stored in gdlr_lms_question.

Features
What SleekAI gives you for GoodLayers LMS
Course-aware lesson nudges
Reads the configured lesson order on a gdlr_lms_course and matches it against the student's completion postmeta. The bot can say lesson 3.2 covers your weak topic and your last position was 6 minutes 22 seconds in.
Quiz attempt grounding
Every gdlr_lms_quiz attempt is stored with question_id-level breakdown. The bot can name specific topics that pulled the score down and tie those topics back to the lessons in gdlr_lms_lesson that cover them.
Certificate transparency
Course-wide certificate rules live in the gdlr_lms_course postmeta. The bot can confirm the required average score, which lessons must be complete, and how close the student is to unlocking the credential.
Use cases
Where this chatbot earns its keep
Independent course creators
Solo educators selling GoodLayers LMS courses. The bot acts as a 24/7 teaching assistant who can answer course-specific questions without manual reply emails.
Corporate training sites
HR teams using GoodLayers LMS for internal onboarding. The bot helps new hires navigate required modules and points them at remediation when quizzes fail.
Membership academies
Membership sites with dozens of GoodLayers LMS courses. A multibot setup gives each course its own coach, scoped by course_id and grounded in that curriculum only.
The bigger picture
Why coaching beats a checkbox progress list
GoodLayers LMS does an honest job of structuring courses and showing progress, but a progress percentage on a dashboard is a low-resolution signal for a struggling student. A learner who failed a chapter 3 quiz has many possible reasons: a missed lesson, a misremembered formula, a confusing question. The dashboard cannot tell them which.
The default fix is to re-watch the chapter, which is slow and demotivating. A coach who can say you missed two questions on meta tags, lesson 3.2 covers it, you stopped at the 6 minute mark, the meta description section starts at minute 8 is dramatically more effective. SleekAI provides exactly that coaching by reading the same data GoodLayers LMS already stores.
The same idea scales to certificate unlock rules, retake policies, and pre-enrolment questions, all of which currently route through email support or remain unanswered. Over a semester the conversation log becomes a curriculum-improvement dataset: lessons that drive heavy questions are candidates for re-recording, quizzes that fail at unusual rates are candidates for re-wording. The plugin gives you the data.
The bot turns it into outcomes.
Questions
Common questions about SleekAI for GoodLayers LMS
At minimum gdlr_lms_course, gdlr_lms_lesson, gdlr_lms_quiz, and gdlr_lms_question. Add gdlr_lms_certificate if you award credentials. Course progress and quiz attempts are stored in postmeta and usermeta keyed by user_id and course_id, which SleekAI exposes as scoped variables.
 Yes. GoodLayers LMS supports lesson ordering within a course via menu_order and parent_id relationships. By tagging lessons or matching topic strings, SleekAI can route a student from a failed question topic back to the specific lesson that covers it, with the last watch position included.
 Yes, retake configuration lives in course postmeta. The bot reads the actual settings (unlimited, limited count, cooldown) and answers retake questions truthfully rather than giving generic language. Misstated retake rules are a common cause of support tickets that this eliminates.
 SleekAI scopes the data by course_id from the current URL or the active course in the dashboard. If the student is on the chapter 3 quiz of course A, the bot only loads course A's lesson tree and quiz history, not the entire library, which keeps the prompt focused.
 Only if your system instruction allows it. The default prompt for an LMS bot forbids revealing correct options from gdlr_lms_question when an attempt is in progress. After submission, the bot can walk through the attempt with specific wrong picks called out.
 Yes. SleekAI's multibot feature lets you create one bot per course_id with its own instruction and presets. The advanced SEO course can have a strict, technical bot while the social media intro course has a warmer, more encouraging coach, all scoped via display conditions.
 Yes. GoodLayers LMS pairs with several GoodLayers themes that ship pre-styled course templates. SleekAI loads via shortcode or PHP embed in the theme template and reads the same post types regardless of which front-end template is active.
 If the student lacks an enrolment row for the active course_id, the bot switches into pre-sale mode by default. It can describe the course outline (from gdlr_lms_lesson titles) and answer pricing questions if the course is set up via WooCommerce or a custom price field in postmeta.
