This space is the home for add-ons built by 3rd party developers in the Fluent community. If someone has built something that extends FluentCRM, FluentCommunity, FluentCart, or any other Fluent product, you’ll find it here.

To make browsing easy, every addon hasΒ one thread, and all updates appear as comments in that same thread.

If you use addons

  • Browse the threads to find addons for the products you use
  • Follow an addon’s thread to get notified when it updates
  • Ask questions in the thread, and the developer will help you there

If you build addons

  • Create one thread for your addon using the template below
  • Post every update as a comment in that thread, not as a new post
  • Keep your first post updated with the latest version

Quick note: these addons are built and supported by 3rd party developers, not by our team. For help with an addon, please contact its developer directly.

πŸ“– Please take a minute to read the full guidelines: Community Addons Guidelines

Thanks for building with us. It’s really exciting to see what you all create on top of Fluent.

Welcome to Community Addons πŸ‘‹
