About LifterLMS
After the 10.0 feature push, LifterLMS settles into a steady security-hardening cadence.
LifterLMS, the WordPress LMS plugin, has shipped a string of 10.0.x point releases that are almost entirely security fixes, many credited to external researchers, plus occasional performance and developer-tooling work. The substance lives in 10.0.0: in-builder lesson editing, a focus mode for lessons and quizzes, an Events tab, and an 'Any' engagement trigger. Everything since has been stabilization rather than new capability.
