FAQ
Common Questions from Educators
Yes. PDFDraft integrates with WordPress hooks and popular LMS plugins. You can configure a trigger so that when a student’s course status changes to “completed,” a personalised certificate is generated and a download link is delivered automatically.
PDFDraft is built on standard WordPress APIs, so it works alongside all major LMS plugins. You can embed PDFs on lesson pages using a shortcode and trigger generation from any WordPress action hook your LMS fires.
Yes. You can embed a personalised download button on any page — including WooCommerce “My Account” areas or LMS dashboards — using the PDFDraft shortcode. The PDF is generated on demand each time the student clicks download.
Absolutely. Use the PDF embed shortcode to render an inline viewer on any page or post. Students can scroll through the document without downloading it or leaving the page. It works on mobile too.
Access control is handled by WordPress user roles and your LMS plugin. PDFDraft generates the PDF, and you control who sees the download button or viewer using standard WordPress conditional logic or your LMS access rules.
No. PDFDraft places no artificial limit on generation volume. Whether you have 10 students or 10,000, every completion triggers a fresh certificate. The only constraint is your server’s resources, which are typically more than sufficient for any educational site.
