Dashboard Widgets for LearnDash adds 4 widgets to the Dashboard page in your WordPress admin area — Overview, Courses, Links & Recently Modified.
<ul>
<li>The LearnDash Overview widget shows you the total number of courses, lessons, topics, certificates, quizzes, questions, assignments, essays & groups.</li>
<li>The LearnDash Courses widget displays a list of up to 10 courses, with handy stats & quick links to edit content that belongs to that course.</li>
<li>The Links widget exposes most internal LearnDash pages for quick navigation.</li>
<li>The Recently Modified widget displays the 3 most recently modified courses, lessons & topics. Links are available to edit content, open the course builder or access the individual course settings page.</li>
</ul>
NOTE: By default, only Administrators will see the widgets. See the FAQ below about “user/role permissions” to learn how to enable them for additional users.

Dashboard To-Do List

I love this plugin, perfect to help creating websites!
It would be great to choose left or right position and why not randomize the list order to improve productivity and add checkbox.

wonderful plugin but a couple of bugs

This plugin is fantastic. I'm adding it to every client site so that we can keep notes between team members.
