It’s difficult for me to keep up with all the third-party add-ons and plugins that enhance and extend Fluent products. But I think there a lot of potentially helpful and useful tools getting lost in the sauce.

Let’s gather the third-party tools for Fluent products all here in one thread. Even better if we could have a tag/topic for third-party tools.

Please include the name, description, link, and any discount currently availableβ€”or just a testimonial of something you use and love. Show us what you got!

Hi! When I use Google Translate to translate my community, the result isn’t bad, but it is too literal.

I understand that translating user-generated posts contextually isn't really feasible. However, I would at least like the community’s interface strings to be translated naturally and in context. For example, β€œFeed” is translated far too literally in many languages (like "food intake"), so I would need the option to review and manually edit individual translations.

Which plugin would you recommend if I want to:

  • translate interface strings contextually and manually refine the translations when necessary;
  • allow users to choose their language from a large list? (like google translate does when you right click to translate)

Thank you!

This is both a test and a question, but does the PWA have push notifications like a normal app?

Hey guys, I was wondering if it was possible to create a video gallery as the one in the picture.

I think this creator uses circle, but I wanted to create something similar... is there any (upcoming) feature or way to do something similar?

I am a Youtube creator and I would want my community to see there muy new vids...

Thanks!

VIDEO GALLERY: IS THIS POSSIBLE?? πŸ“Ί

Hello Shahjahan JewelΒ 

Is there an option to migrate community data in FluentCommunity? I’m planning to move it from a subdomain to the main domain.

Hi everyone πŸ‘‹

We run a fitness community on FluentCommunity around 116 course videos, ~16k views/month. Our members follow 30-40 minute workouts at home, so watching on a TV instead of a phone is the main use case, not a bonus feature.

The problem: we keep getting support requests from members who can't cast lesson videos to their TV. What's interesting is that the reports come also from recent devices.

Videos are hosted on Bunny Stream and embedded in lessons with Bunny's standard iframe. Before posting I ruled out everything on the Bunny side:

  • DRM (MediaCage) β†’ off
  • Embed view token auth + CDN token auth β†’ both off
  • Allowed domains β†’ our domains + *.gstatic.com (the one Chromecast needs)
  • "Block direct URL file access" β†’ off, so referer-less requests from cast receivers are allowed
  • AirPlay + Chromecast controls β†’ both enabled in the player
  • Embed URL β†’ no disableIosPlayer parameter

This is the embed as rendered in the lesson:

html

<iframe src="https://player.mediadelivery.net/embed/500044/[id]?autoplay=false&loop=false&muted=false&preload=true&responsive=true"
  loading="lazy"
  allow="accelerometer;gyroscope;autoplay;encrypted-media;picture-in-picture;fullscreen;"
  allowfullscreen="true"></iframe>

My working theory is the ManagedMediaSource change: since iOS 17.1 Safari allows JS players to handle playback via MSE, and AirPlay is known to break when that happens, where before, iPhones were forced into native HLS and AirPlay always worked.

So, three questions:

  1. Does FluentCommunity wrap or sanitize third-party embeds in lessons β€” extra iframe layer, stripped allow attributes, sandbox? If the embed ends up nested, are Permissions Policy directives passed down to the inner frame?
  2. Does FluentPlayer handle AirPlay / Chromecast, and does it use native HLS on iOS or a JS player?
  3. Has anyone here got casting working reliably from lesson videos? If yes, what's your setup: Bunny, Vimeo, Cloudflare Stream, FluentPlayer, self-hosted? I'd rather copy something that's known to work than keep debugging blind.

Thanks πŸ™

Hi everyone,

I am facing a strange and critical issue with Fluent Forms Pro on my WordPress website, and I need expert advice or guidance if someone has encountered this before.

The Problem:
When users submit our multi-step visa application form and upload mandatory documents (like passports and PDFs), the files briefly hit the local temporary folder (/wp-content/uploads/fluentform/temp/), but some files randomly disappear or go missing right before the final form entry/submission is completed. As a result, the submission comes through, but the attached files show as "Not Found."

What We Have Checked & Ruled Out:
Server PHP Limits: High and optimized (upload_max_filesize = 1024M, memory_limit = 1024M, max_execution_time = 600).

Folder Permissions: The upload directories and permissions (755) are correct.

No External Cloud Storage: We are not using Google Drive or Dropbox integrations; files are meant to save directly to the local server.

Conflicting Code Snippets: All active WooCommerce and custom PHP/JS code snippets have been audited and verified; no syntax errors or restrictive hooks interfering with AJAX requests.

Hosting Environment: Other sites on the exact same server/cPanel account are functioning smoothly without issues.

If anyone has experienced this file-dropping behavior in Fluent Forms or knows what might be purging these temporary uploads during the AJAX request cycle, please let me know. Any suggestions or debugging tips would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

I've just launched SpaceBuddy, a free hub for my add-ons for FlunetCommunity. SpaceBuddy gives you one dashboard to discover, install and update my add-on Packs. Three Packs are available today, with more already visible as Coming Soon on the dashboard.

To get started, download for free, install and activate the license (required to control access to the packs and updates).

IconPack β€” a browsable library of 1,200+ icons, that you can easily access inside FluentCommunity's own portal/admin area

  • Easily select icons when adding or editing Spaces, Courses, and Links without leaving the screen
  • Outline and bold styles, copy any icon as clean inline SVG (no more emojis)
  • Everything bundled β€” zero CDN calls, nothing loads from anyone else's server

PWAPack β€” turns your community into an installable app.

  • Full web app manifest with icons at every size browsers and iOS actually ask for (maskable included)
  • Offline page and smart caching - works for community-only or full-website if required
  • Install banner, an install card in the community menu, and a step-by-step guide for iPhone, iPad and non-Chromium Android browsers
  • App colours that follow your community's light and dark modes
  • Options to customise the text and messages

PushPack β€” real web Push Notifications, no third-party provider, no fees.

  • Posts, comments, @mentions, thread replies, reactions, new followers (FC Pro) and DMs
  • Notifications are encrypted, direct from your website to each member's browser
  • Member opt-in card in the menu plus opt in/out options in the Members notification settings page
  • iOS iPhone and iPad are supported through the installed PWA App β€” either use PWAPack or FluentCommunity's own PWA

Compatibility with FluentCommunity 2.8 and its PWA β€” yes, I know how the timing looks, and I'll probably get some flack for it πŸ˜† but I've been using PWAPack and PushPack on my own site for a while. Alongside the manifest, PWAPack uses a service worker which allows better offline support and caching, and it's what allows Push Notifications to work. The text and messages are all customisable and translatable too. PWAPack will check if FC's PWA is active and show a warning, as they would both try to provide the PWA app. An honest comment, if you prefer FC's PWA, my PushPack will happily deliver push notifications through it, so just use whichever suits you πŸ™‚

Everything is translatable and should work as expected, I spend a lot of time testing by hand, on real sites, real phones and real members, before shipping (no AI slop!). I will always offer support for all my products (free or paid), so if you spot any errors or have any issues, please tell me and I'll fix it asap.

Some screenshots, more available on my website - full docs coming soon.
