# Compatibility Add-Ons

LearnDash is built to “play nice” with many of the popular themes and plugins available for WordPress. However, there are some instances where a little more is needed in order to improve compatibility between LearnDash and other tools in the WordPress ecosystem.

That is where our Compatibility Add-ons come to the rescue! Simply activate the desired compatibility add-on and you are done. There are no settings to configure!

## Elementor Integration

## Multilingual Integration
