LearnPress Announcements

Description

The Announcements add-on adds an internal announcement system to LearnPress courses, letting instructors publish notices directly on the course page and notify enrolled students about news, schedule changes, or extra content. Integrated into the LMS dashboard, the component creates a dedicated announcements tab in each course, keeps a message history, and centralizes the communication channel between teacher and class without relying on external email or bulletin board plugins.
