Editor Blocks: Course and Lesson layouts are now (preferrably) powered by various editor blocks.
When a block is added to a course or lesson, the template hook that automatically outputs that element is removed automatically (preventing duplicates).
If you use the LifterLMS Labs: Action Manager you may no longer need it!
Course & Membership instructors are now managed through an editor “plugin”. Check out the rocket icon near the “Publish/Update” button.
Instructor metabox will load conditionally based on presence of the block editor
New courses and lessons will automatically have a preloaded block editor template
Courses and lessons will automatically be “migrated” to these templates when edited on the admin panel
Various course settings conditionally load based on the presence of the block editor
Added filter to the headline size in the course/meta-wrapper-start.php template. Allows customization of headline via the “Course Information” block settings.
If you’re not ready for WordPress 5.0 you can still upgrade LifterLMS. This release is fully functional without the block editor.

Fixed issue causing quiz reporting screens to be blank for users without view_others_lifterlms_reports capabilities.
Added a new notification “New Private Post Comment” which sends email notifications to students and instructors when comments are left on a private post.
Students will also receive on-screen basic notifications when an admin leaves a new comment on a private post.
The notification “New Private Post (Email)” can now be tested via LifterLMS core email test settings.
Privacy Exporters and Erasers
During data exports, all private posts assigned to the student will be included with the export.
