Add-ons allow you to extend any product with additional content types - without creating separate standalone products. They work across all product types and give your members a seamless, unified experience.
Common examples include:
A support community attached to a course
A digital download library or resource archive for course materials
A content page for community guidelines to a community
Any combination of content types under a single product umbrella
To add an add-on to a product:
Open your product and navigate to the Add-Ons section.
Use the toggles to activate the add-ons you want - for example, a Community or a Digital Download.
Once activated, each add-on will appear as its own tab within the Add-Ons section, ready to configure.
Note: Toggle an Add On to activate it.
Note: Once an Add-On is activated a tab will open for the Add-Ons settings and options.
After activation, click on the add-on name to access its settings:
Community: Manage all community settings directly within the product.
Digital Downloads: Upload files and manage your download library and homepage — all nested under the parent product.
Content Page: Add a custom page to the product for additional content of your choice.
In the members area sidebar, your members will see the main product (e.g. the course) listed first. Any add-ons you've activated appear below it, keeping everything neatly grouped under one product.
Note: In this sidebar the “Lessons” are the Course (main product), “Downloads Library” is the Digital Download Add-On, “Community” is the Community Add-On and “Community Rules” is the Content Page Add-On.
Tips
Add-ons are available for all product types, not just courses.
You can activate multiple add-ons on a single product.
Add-ons are managed per-product, giving you flexibility to tailor each offering independently.
