What you’ll need
- The LearnDash plugin installed and activated.
- At least one course with content published.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin installed and activated.

Create the integration
- Go to WP Admin → AFI → Add New.
- Enter an Integration Title, e.g.
Course completed → Mailchimp graduate segment. - In Trigger → Form/Data Provider, select LearnDash.
- In Form/Task Name, choose the event (Course Enrolled, Course Completed, Quiz Passed, etc.).
- In Action → Platform, pick the destination and complete the field mapping.
- Optional: configure Conditional Logic.
- Click Save Integration.
Useful patterns
- Course-completion drip campaign: students who complete a course get added to a Mailchimp segment for an “alumni” follow-up sequence.
- Quiz-fail alert: when a student fails the same quiz multiple times, ping the instructor’s Slack DM for outreach.
- Certificate sync: when a certificate is earned, push to a CRM with a tag like
certified-graduate.
Conditional logic example
Goal: when a student completes the Premium Masterclass course, also add them to a “Top-tier graduates” segment in Mailchimp for a special offer campaign.
Create the Mailchimp integration on the Course Completed event. Open the Conditional Logic panel, add a condition with the course title field, Equal To, value Premium Masterclass.
Troubleshooting
Course-completion event doesn’t fire
LearnDash fires the course-completed event when all lessons and quizzes in the course are marked complete. If a student misses the final quiz, completion never fires. Check the student’s progress in LearnDash → Reports.
Quiz score appears as 0 for completed quizzes
If your quiz uses the “answer key” pass mark (yes/no rather than score-based), the score may be reported as 0 even on a pass. Check quiz_passed instead of quiz_score in your conditional logic.
