🧠 Top 10 FAQ - Memberships, Communities and Courses
Q1 - How do I create a course or training program in GoHighLevel?
A: Go to Sites → Memberships, click “New Product,” and add your lessons, videos, and PDFs. You can structure modules and set progress tracking.
Q2 - Can I drip content over time instead of giving full access right away?
A: Yes. Use the drip schedule to release lessons daily, weekly, or based on a user’s start date.
Q3 - How do I automate access to courses after purchase?
A: Create a workflow that triggers on payment success. It adds users to the correct Membership and sends them their login details automatically.

A: Absolutely. You can customize colors, fonts, and layout to match your brand or your client’s.
