How to Send LifterLMS Enrollments to AddCalendar
AddCalendar is a calendar platform. Here is how to pipe LifterLMS data straight into AddCalendar using Advanced Form Integration. The setup takes about five minutes and runs entirely on your own server.
Skip the automation middleman
Rather than routing data through a third-party cloud, AFI sends it directly from your WordPress server to calendar. No task meter, no monthly bill.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with LifterLMS installed and at least one course.
- A AddCalendar account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect AddCalendar to AFI
- Get your AddCalendar API Key from your account settings.
- In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → AddCalendar.
- Paste the API Key and click Save Changes.
Setting up the integration
1. Create a new integration
Go to AFI → Add New. Name it LifterLMS to AddCalendar.
2. Pick your trigger
Select LifterLMS as the form provider. AFI fires when a student enrolls in a course or purchases a membership, giving you access to student details, course information, and enrollment data.
3. Select AddCalendar as the destination
Choose AddCalendar from the platform dropdown and pick Add Event. This creates an event in AddCalendar.
4. Map fields
Match each AddCalendar field on the left to the corresponding LifterLMS field on the right. Common mappings include student name, email, course title, and enrollment date. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.
5. Add conditions if needed
Only want to send certain enrollments? Set up a conditional rule based on any field value.
6. Save and test
Click Save Integration. Complete a test enrollment in LifterLMS. Check AddCalendar to confirm the data arrived. If anything looks wrong, open AFI → Log to see the exact request and response.
Free vs Pro
The free version maps title, date, and description to AddCalendar with unlimited enrollments. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-enrollment fees on any plan.
Frequently asked questions
Which LifterLMS events trigger the integration?
AFI fires when a student enrolls in a course or purchases a membership. This covers new enrollments, course completions, and student registrations.
Will adding this slow down my site?
No. AFI sends data to the destination after the enrollment event completes. Your students are not affected.
Can I send enrollments to multiple platforms?
Yes. Create a separate integration for each destination, and every enrollment flows to all of them simultaneously.
