How we write these guides
Every guide names the Tutor LMS version it was checked against. Before a hook, function, database table or setting appears in an article, we confirm it in the source code of Tutor LMS and, where relevant, Tutor LMS Pro. Features that need Pro are labelled as such. Code examples are written as small, self-contained snippets for a child theme or a site plugin, so they survive plugin updates.
