Full release note: https://fluentcommunity.co/blog/fluent-community-version-1-2-0/
Shahjahan Jewel thank you!
Excellent! I'll be playing with the Bunny stuff today to see how it works. Thank you.
Great update Shahjahan Jewel , please consider post scheduling for the next update 🙏
Shahjahan Jewel you are the best 💪😀
Natascha Vantuykom Yes, please!
Natascha Vantuykom Yes! This would be very beneficial for batch processing things.
I literally just came here to see if there was a fix for the image rotation issue. I invite a bunch of people to join my community but that was one of the hold ups!
Patrick Anderson Add it to roadmap lets vote
Bryan William It is already fixed in this release!
Amazing! Moderation, webhooks, and FC in CRM are amazing additions. I know lots are waiting on BunnyNet also. Can't wait to test this all out.
Thank you excellent update... So so amazing
Great job, please considere Custom Menu (To load pages and post like WP) For Fluent community 🫠
The BuddyBoss Migration still hasn't been fixed. The profile pictures are still not displayed properly, the media import isn't working, and the links won't get displayed as links.
Jonathan N. Our team is working on it. We will release an update dedicated to that within this month.
Shahjahan Jewel Great, thank you.
Shahjahan Jewel Did you not tell me in another thread that this was fixed????
Paul Crawford we had a roadblock that’s why we did not merge into this update. They have some super complicated media storage system and some mixed data structure with backward compatibility so we could not ship in this update.
Shahjahan Jewel so this comment from you 20 days ago wasn't exactly true then??? This is why there is so much frustration amongst the community!!!
What is the ACTUAL ETA of this fix??
Paul Crawford it was rejected in final test phase. As I described in the previous comment.
Some really good stuff here Shahjahan Jewel - thank you!
But I did get excited thinking the Bunny.net integration was for videos in courses 😭 I guess I just have to wait a bit longer!
Jonathan Gwyer Yes, that's on the backlog.
Shahjahan Jewel I was excited thinking that too :(
Courtney Vickery Me, too.
If I want to migrate from Cloudflare to BunnyNet, do I need to do anything, or will all data be transferred automatically? Shahjahan Jewel
Sella Yoffe Your old media will not moved to bunny but old data will work as expected.
Shahjahan Jewel thank you. Just finished watching the video. Great update. Amazing plugin, wonderful team. Keep on 👏
Awesome thx!
Great update please consider bunny stream for lessons videos and live meetings booking
Shahjahan Jewel Will there be any integration with LearnDash so that access to a Discussion Group could be granted based on course enrollment?
Jerad Hill you can automate the space access on course enrollment using FluentCRM automation where we have integration with LD
It is possible in this version to disable image-compressing by hook?
Kevin Heinrichs yes, I will share the code snippet in few hours
Shahjahan Jewel So amazing, thanks!!! Because that is a big need for us. Also big need is PrestoPlayer for courses and posts, hopeful it will comes next 😜
Shahjahan Jewel I did a try, but it will be still compressed. From 297kb to 162kb :(
Kevin Heinrichs Maybe it's compressed by other plugins?
Shahjahan Jewel I found the issue, everything is great now! Thank you so much :)
Are there any specific settings needed to enabled Content Moderation (I use custom slug for the portal) - error: No route was found
Mat go to settings on the moderation and enable that. Also make sure you are using the latest version of FluentCommunity Pro.
Shahjahan Jewel yeah true - Thanks!
Just tried to enable Content Moderation, enables, but when I refresh the page it goes back to Content Moderation is disabled.
Marcus Wareham we noticed a bug on the enable button. Click on the settings and then enable from the settings form.
Shahjahan Jewel I can't get it to stay enabled consitantly. It seems to be done, I add some profanity words and number of times to flag a user. It seems to stay on, but if I go back to add more words, it turns off again.
Also, does the profanity filter get ignored for admins?
Marcus Wareham I see that Admin post with forbidden words are also flagged for moderation
Great, thanks for that. That is good news
I can’t test it as I can’t get the moderation module to remain switched on!
Marcus Wareham would you please open a support ticket so we can take a look.
Shahjahan Jewel done. Ticket number: 122637
Marcus Wareham it’s almost mid night for our team. They will take a look at the morning.
Exciting thank you Shahjahan Jewel!
is it possible to have an ETA for the Theme Compatibility? This featured was teased from the launch...it is in the roadmap with most votes since November. IMHO this should have been one of the first features to be included in the early updates after the original launch
Giovanni Cacchione I explained about that in the video.
Giovanni Cacchione April/May according to the video. They are working on it as a priority but it's not straightforward so they want to make sure it works correctly for everyone.
Giovanni Cacchione there's a quick well to work with fix shared by Ross H , I believe it can help for now
Please add shortcode and special page function
Amazing !!
It seems that it is not possible to report via mobile, buttons are missing. Great update - well done.
Shahjahan Jewel Can you confirm that reports works on mobile? No buttons for me at all. Works at desktop
Kimsoft Media AB I will test on mobile tomorrow. Thanks for reporting.
Man!
What a GREAT update!!!
- BunnyCDN integration (still waiting for Bunny Stream integration) ✅
- Incoming webhooks (I have to play with it) ✅
- BUT I'm specially excited about this first release of moderation feature 🚀
Still waiting for Presto Player (and themes) integration 😉
Scheduling posts and events (Skool style), would be cheery on top 🍒
Shahjahan Jewel and team, THANKS for all the work on this GREAT tool! 🙏
Jose Luis Duron PrestoPlayer would solve a lot for me with the Bunny Stream and managing files.
William Beem I really don’t want to depend on a 3rd party plugin for this super important feature.
Plz !
Hello, I bought a single license in December and a 5-site license. I installed Community on a production site, but the plugin isn’t public or usable yet due to translation difficulties. Some words are impossible to translate (French), and that’s a real problem. Moreover, if we have to recheck everything with every update, it will soon become impossible. Please consider addressing the translation issues—it could win you even more customers
D@vid David it will be great if you report which strings are not translatable so we can address and make sure to include those strings.
Hello,
Here are a few observations even though my .pot files are 100% translated into French. I had noticed others, like the pagination at the bottom of the page. Additionally, all alert messages that appear, and disappear, at the bottom right, are in English.
I purchased the plugin (5+1) 3 months ago, I installed it on a site, but I cannot put it into production.
I do not doubt that you are doing what you can, but the ability to translate is an essential element for the plugin's use and your company's growth.
Thx
David
Shahjahan Jewel tried the bunny net integration, but even if everything is correct, it seems not working. Opened ticket #122642
another question. when it will be all good, is there any way to offload existing files and images to the storage?
Tindaro Battaglia I will take a look of your ticket tomorrow and get back to you. For now, there has no way to offload existing media files.
Super awesome!! Extremely happy with the incoming webhook 🤩 😁
How about course drip by lessson? :D
Cristian Ciuberea This is a big one for some of my clients. Date-based drip, relative date drip, activity-based drip. We need all the drip criteria.
Shahjahan Jewel great news and updates! any soon plan for private message notifications? My community is looking to connect each other but without the email notification makes it more complicated
Carlos Rodera You noticed that we did not release the update for Fluent Messaging add-on in this update, right?
Our team is working on that part actually and I hoping to release that update late next week.
Carlos Rodera I've suggested to others that they look into replace FluentChat with BetterMessages, which has a more robust setup for private messaging. It's free, unless you want to pay for a webhook version, and the integration with FC has been seamless for my community so far. It has email notifications too!
Stuart McKelvie yes. We have wroked together and provided them all the required hooks to add the integration.
Shahjahan Jewel Thanks, yeah I noticed, that's why I was really waiting this because the members are trying to connect on live calls and similar and they're requesting something like a Telegram channel or similar, but I will like to keep everything in the community, so looking forward to this, thanks of the update!
Stuart McKelvie thanks! I will check this out, it does display inside the FluentCommunity this plugin? or you need to go out?
Carlos Rodera it's all internal to the community! You just uninstall the FluentChat plugin, and install the BetterMessages plugin. Here is a list of their features https://www.better-messages.com/docs/integrations/fluentcommunity/
Stuart McKelvie amazing I have to try this tomorrow! thanks!
❤️❤️❤️ I was waiting for Bunny integration to show FCom to my furutre customers. Hope in the future, you will add Bunny Stream which is more dedicated to video (for LMS it is a game changer with DRM and multiple resolution...). Great job to all your team ;)
I just test the Bunny storage integration. I did some test in the LMS section with a sample lesson. It is working with a small file. But when uploading a zip or mp4 file there is no error but the file doesn't appear in the list at the uploading end.
Moreover, with big files, it can be useful to have a percentage of progress.
We still dont have the ability to upload a video for the lesson.
It's a pity because it could be simple to let people upload a video and have it as a video lesson instead of an embed link.
When we upload a file to Bunny storage (for example myvideo.mp4) we have directly a accessible link : https://mycdn.**b-cdn.net**/myvideo.mp4 (in our case with FCom it will have a bigger name).
So for the LMS case, it is still unusable for me. I don't want my customers use vimeo or youtube to upload their courses videos. People wants simplicity. 😀 The best test is to ask your mother to try...
Bast #Sén we don’t have bunny stream support yet.
Shahjahan Jewel No Bunny Stream support yet? Aw, crap. I presume that means it's coming some day. At least for now their embed code works with some slight mods. I was just hoping for a better process to use stream video. Thanks for clearing that up.
Thank you! Love it. Do we have the ability to change image quality yet?
thank you very much!
Shahjahan Jewel thanks a lot! 🎉🎉🎉
Shahjahan Jewel My understanding is that you cannot programmatically add a user to a course without Fluent CRM?
I setup all of my stores with SureCart prior to Fluent Community's release which creates new user/user roles upon a successfully payment.
I really want to have an open free community with Restricted Courses. But, I need to pay an extra 100 USD/per year to automate adding users to courses?
Do you think there will ever be an option to restrict content by user role instead of Fluent CRM tags?
Or perhaps allow FluentCommunity purchasers a way to add the FluentCRM tag without the Pro version?
John Aperture you can easily do that programmatically:
Shahjahan Jewel So I am guessing all my other questions are a no for now? I'm not trying to be difficult here, but when i reach out to SureCart support and WPManage Ninja Support, the general response back is "you can't do that without upgrading to X software."
John Aperture there has a free solution as well. Use Paymattic which free payment plugin and has integration with FluentCommunity.
Alternatively, you can ask SureCart to add an integration directly.
Shahjahan Jewel Thanks for the replies.
But, there is no way SureCart is going to do that. They want you on SureDash. I chose FluentCommunity because my whole stack is on Fluent minus SureCart.
I like all your apps...except for Fluent Community Content Restriction. You guys want us on FluentCRM Pro. And I get it...but just say so..thats all I'm asking so I can plan accordingly for my own business.
John Aperture our access management with FluentCRM is available in the free version. I think you also use their sure triggers where they have integration with FluentCRM so that will work as well.
Shahjahan Jewel I have not figured that one out yet.
You can create an automation that integrated with SureCart (FluentCRM Pro) Or you can add Fluent CRM tags when a new user is created (FluentCRM Pro).
Can you point me to the docs to accomplish this with FluentCRM Free?
I reached out to support already on this and they said it's not possible.
Incoming Webhooks - yay - fantastic - thank you team!!
Love it!
I wonder why there is no option to select by Categories?
