What you’ll need to generate AI course descriptions
Important: We assume you already have the Tutor LMS plugin installed and activated on your WordPress site.
This is what you will need to generate course descriptions for Tutor LMS using artificial intelligence:
1- WP Sheet Editor – Courses
This plugin allows you to view and manage courses from different LMS plugins (LearnPress, Tutor LMS, LeardDash, and others) using an intuitive spreadsheet with advanced search, bulk edit, export, and import tools. If you already have it, you can skip this.

3- External API provider
The AI functionality in WP Sheet Editor relies on an external API like OpenAI, OpenRouter, etc. You’ll need an account with the provider and an API key to connect.
WP Sheet Editor – AI is compatible with these AI providers:
- Open AI for text and images (more info here)
- OpenRouter (more info here)
- Any other provider that uses the same format as OpenAI.

Prompt for generating course descriptions for Tutor LMS
Here is a prompt that you can use to generate Tutor LMS course descriptions.
Generate an engaging and appealing course description for $Title$. The description should start with a compelling introduction paragraph (not heading) that highlights the course's value and relevance to potential students. Clearly outline what students will learn, using bullet points or short paragraphs for readability. Emphasize key benefits, such as skill development, career opportunities, or practical applications. Maintain an engaging and professional tone, making the course appealing to a broad audience. Use clean HTML formatting, including: <h2> for main sections; <h3> for subsections; <p> for paragraphs; <ul> for bullet points; <strong> for emphasis. Avoid using <html>, <body>, <header>, or <footer> tags, as LearnPress handles these automatically. Ensure the output is structured for easy readability and directly ready for use in the course description field.
This prompt takes as context the course title to generate an appropriate description for each site. Remember to test and customize the prompt to make sure you get the best results.
Optional: Save it as a global prompt
WP Sheet Editor – AI allows you to create global prompts so you don’t have to type the prompts every time you want to use them. You can create a bank of global prompts that will make your work much easier. You can use global prompts both in the spreadsheet rows and in the Bulk Edit tool.
To create a global prompt for generating Tutor LMS course descriptions, you need to:
- Go to WP Sheet Editor > AI > Settings > Prompts.
- Click on Add new.
- Enter a name that is easy to remember in the Name field.
- Enter the prompt text in the Prompt field. You can add the prompt we shared above.
- Click on Save.
Once you have saved your global prompt, you will see an auto generated prompt slug, which you can use in the ai:prompt-slug shortcut to run pre-saved global prompts in spreadsheet cells (ai:course-description in this case).
Now let’s see some ways to generate descriptions for your Tutor LMS courses using generative AI.
Method 1: Generate course descriptions with AI in the spreadsheet
WP Sheet Editor – AI allows you to generate Tutor LMS course descriptions in the spreadsheet cells. You just need to enter the prompt or prompt shortcut in the spreadsheet cells and the AI will generate the course descriptions.
Once you’re in the courses spreadsheet (WP Sheet Editor > Edit courses), you need to add the AI prompt that allows you to generate descriptions for your Tutor LMS courses. To do this, you have at least two options:
- You can use the full prompt by typing ai:prompt (replace “prompt” with the actual prompt).
- You can use the prompt shortcut by typing ai:prompt-slug (replace “prompt-slug” with the global prompt’s slug).
Go to the Content column.
In this example, we will use the global prompt we saved above, so we need to use the prompt shortcut: ai:course-description.
Once you hit enter, the AI will start working to generate your course description, so you will see a loading icon in the cell.
As you can see below, we have generated the course description using artificial intelligence.
If you click on Edit in the cell, you can view the generated course description, edit it and save the changes.
Want to generate descriptions for multiple courses at once? You can do it asily by pasting the same prompt or prompt shortcut in multiple cells.
And once you have generated all the course descriptions you want, you can click on Save.
Method 2: Generate AI course descriptions in TinyMCE editors
Another method for generating course descriptions with generative AI is to use the TinyMCE editor in the spreadsheet.
Just go to the “Content” column and click on Edit to open the TinyMCE editor in a popup.
Once the popup opens, click on Edit with AI.
Then, paste the prompt in the Prompt field and click on Generate. In this example, we’re using the prompt we shared with you above.
The AI will start working to complete your request, and you’ll see a loading icon on the Generate button while the request is processing.
The AI will generate the description and you’ll be able to check the results, make all the changes you need, and save the changes. This is a great way to have control over every description you generate.
Method 3: Generate course descriptions in bulk
Generating course descriptions in bulk is great if you want to save a lot of time editing hundreds or thousands of courses. With our Bulk AI API, processing AI requests takes much less time, so you can use AI in hundreds or thousands of courses easily.
In this example, we will show you how to search for all the courses missing description and generate descriptions with AI in bulk.
Let’s start by opening the Search tool.
Now select these values to search for all the Tutor LMS courses without description:
- Tick the Enable advanced filters checkbox.
- Field: Content
- Operator: =
- Value: Leave this field empty.
- Click on Run search.
As you can see below, we have filtered all the courses missing description. You can see the active search filter above the spreadsheet.
Now you need to open the Bulk Edit tool.
Select these values in the Bulk Edit tool to write course descriptions with AI in bulk:
- Select the rows that you want to update: Edit all the rows from my current search
- What field do you want to edit: Content
- Select type of edit: Here you have two options:
- First option: You can select a pre-saved global prompt. For example, we will select our course description prompt, displayed as AI command: Course description. This way, you don’t have to type the prompt.
- Second option: You can select AI Prompt, and you can paste or type the full prompt.
- AI Provider: If you have configured multiple providers, you can select the one you want to use to complete this task.
- You can click on Show preview to see the result before saving the changes.
- Now you can click on Execute Now
We started with our courses missing descriptions, and now all our courses have a description that was generated with generative AI.
Generating Tutor LMS course descriptions with generative AI is easy with WP Sheet Editor – AI. You can auto write hundreds or thousands of descriptions with a few clicks and thus save a lot of time. Forget about having to manually write course descriptions and start transforming your workflow with the power of artificial intelligence.
