Install & update

Install

1. Upload and activate MindfulAttendance (ZIP or FTP to wp-content/plugins/mindful-attendance).
2. On activation, the plugin creates its database table for attendance records.
3. Ensure Edwiser Bridge (Moodle) or LearnDash is installed for the platform you intend to use.

Permissions

• Admin screens under Attendance require appropriate admin capabilities (see your site’s role setup).
• Public check-in uses AJAX handlers for both logged-in and guest flows where supported—verify nonce and rate limits in high-traffic events.

First run

1. Open Attendance → Settings and set branding: accent colour, taglines, meeting button label, intros for online/in-person.
2. Create a page and add the [attendance] shortcode with a real course_id (see Usage).

Updates

• Back up the database before updates; attendance table is preserved across upgrades unless release notes say otherwise.
• Re-test check-in on staging after Edwiser or LearnDash updates.
