#FeatureRequest Is there a way to create Business Pages in FluentCommunity?
We are thinking about creating a local community site with members, groups/spaces (local news, weather, announcements) and a business directory with list of local business pages (name, address, phone, links, reviews). Similar to FB #Pages (for business, brands, hobbies, fanpage, etc).. also similar to this currently available plugin for BB https://wbcomdesigns.com/downloads/buddypress-business-profile/
We would like the option to monetize individual #BusinessPages (woocommerce, sell subscriptions/memberships). Is this possible? Thanks
I doubt there will be a native solution for this anytime soon (if ever). Even BuddyPress and BuddyBoss users have to rely on other plugins (such as the one you linked) to make this happen. I'm sure developers will come up with plugins for expanding/enhancing FluentCommunity if it gets popular in the future 🤞
+1 for this - hoping it will be implemented natively
Followup after 9 months... any updates on providing "Business Pages" to our Fluent Community sites??
Would this plugin by "BuddyPress Business Profile - Wbcom Designs" work with FC? It works with Buddypress/Buddyboss.

Any suggestions on how to accomplish this would be great.. thanks 👍
I would love this 😍
Diana van der Pol yep, me too... still waiting..
Insta Net I've used Wbcom before when I had Buddyboss, it does look really nice and my community loved it. That is one thing I do miss... Hopefully, it will be added as a feature down the road 🤞🏼
Diana van der Pol yessss I really wish this Wbcom plugin becomes compatible with FluentCommunity.. or that the FC community develops this themselves.
And I also have many great things to say about Wbcom agency... amazing support and customer service. I am very grateful to the entire WBCOM team and Varun Dubey (BuddyPress Core Developer, CEO @ Wbcom Designs).. ❤️
Insta Net I need to review more but seems appealing, however, integration of two completely different plugins would be a challenge since wpcom would be a 3rd party plugin that may need constant updates, so the next would be to build all the features from wpcom into fluentCommunity and im not so sure Fluent is willing to do that and that be obvious since your post is about a year old. Forum owners use fc in various ways, not everyone may need or use the advanced features you want, keep in mind, adding more bloat or features does not always sell more copies but this for FC to decide. Have you tried contacting wpcom to see if they would come out with some sort of integration addon for FC? But they may not be interested either...
Diana van der Pol instead of FC integration of business pages, maybe a stand alone business page plugin may be more popular in the business niche, of course it can stand alone or integrate with all fluent products, including FC. Maybe the business page plugin can be called FluentBusiness.com and this domain is forsale. At the end of the day, they may not be interested.
David Scurlock thanks for taking the time to leave a message and sharing your opinion 👍
Insta Net I would vote for that since my particular niche would benefit from the use of business pages.
