Patrick Bass Area: Monetization (audit p10) · Surface: /learn/courses/{slug} (course detail) · Dimension: competitor-gap · Severity: major
Teachable, Thinkific and LearnWorlds sales pages all lead with an expandable curriculum outline (sections + lesson counts + a few free 'preview' lessons), star ratings/reviews, and an instructor bio with credibility. These are the proven conversion levers for course sales. Our detail page is a price + a paragraph + a checkout button, with the lesson list described only as generic boilerplate. Buyers can't see what they're getting, so conversion and average order value suffer versus every dedicated LMS.
Evidence
templates/courses/detail.php only renders a markdown description and a static 'What You Get' block (detail.php:139-150: 'All lessons, materials, and resources.'). grep for curriculum|lesson list|module|rating|review|testimonial|instructor|preview lesson|sample over templates/courses/detail.php returns no curriculum outline, no rating/review markup, no instructor section, and no free preview lesson. CourseCatalogController::detail (CourseCatalogController.php:39-71) passes only offer + descriptionHtml + alreadyPurchased.Suggested fix. Pull the mobieusLearn course's module/lesson tree onto the offer detail page as a collapsible curriculum with lesson counts and per-lesson free-preview flags; add a ratings/reviews block sourced from completed-enrollment feedback; add an optional instructor bio field on the offer.
