Waitlist for locked Fluent Community spaces

I had another look through the developer docs, and I think this should actually be possible with a small custom snippet. There is a space/join_requested action that fires when a user requests to join a Space, so you could automatically apply the corresponding FluentCRM tag and then let FluentCRM handle the confirmation email, admin notification, and any other automation.

So yes, it looks achievable without a form: just not entirely no-code. 🙂

Patricia Montagno You're very welcome, Patricia! 🙂

No worries. It's actually pretty straightforward to use snippets thanks to Fluent Snippets.

If it helps, here's the general process:

1. Create one FluentCRM tag for each waitlist (it sounds like you've already done this 👍).

2. Add the snippet using the Fluent Snippets plugin (or your child theme's functions.php if you prefer).

3. In the snippet below, simply map each Space ID to the corresponding FluentCRM tag ID.

4. Once a user clicks Request to Join, the snippet applies the correct tag automatically.

5. Then, in FluentCRM, create an automation triggered by Tag Applied to:

   • send the confirmation email,
   • notify you,
   • or do anything else you need.

The only things you'd need to customize in the snippet are the Space IDs and Tag IDs.

It's actually a pretty small snippet once you know those IDs. 🙂

Hope this clarifies where to put that "code".

That being said, just follow the team steps. This is just an aproximation idea haha :)

Draft snippet code you can use (substituting the IDs):

_____Copy from here

/**

• Add a FluentCRM tag when a user requests to join

• a specific Fluent Community space.
  */
  add_action(
  'fluent_community/space/join_requested',
  function ($space, $user_id) {

   if (!function_exists('FluentCrmApi')) {
       return;
   }
  
   /*
    * Map each Fluent Community Space ID
    * to its corresponding FluentCRM tag.
    *
    * You may use the tag ID, slug, or title.
    */
   $space_tag_map = [
       123 => 'waitlist-community-one',
       456 => 'waitlist-community-two',
   ];
  
   $space_id = isset($space->id) ? (int) $space->id : 0;
  
   if (!$space_id || empty($space_tag_map[$space_id])) {
       return;
   }
  
   $contact = FluentCrmApi('contacts')
       ->getContactByUserRef((int) $user_id);
  
   if (!$contact) {
       return;
   }
  
   $contact->attachTags([
       $space_tag_map[$space_id],
   ]);

  },
  10,
  2
  );

Jorge de los Reyes wizard! Still hard for me to understand but I had to praise you on this one!

AS W thank you !

Nothing fancy tbh. Just the allmighty magic of the WPMN dev docs.

As flexible as always ✨ 🧙‍♂️

Jorge de los Reyes dev docs you actually understand how to manipulate. I'm still a noob after 6 months of almost everyday use of wp!

Patricia Montagno Happy to help! Let us know if it works!
