Uncanny Toolkit

Design Upgrade Pro applies styles to several modules in both the free & pro versions of the Uncanny Toolkit for LearnDash.

Uncanny Toolkit Free vs. Pro

Depending on whether or not you have upgraded to pro, you’ll have different features available to you. We discuss the differences between Uncanny Toolkit’s free & pro versions in our Getting Started with LearnDash course.
