I forwarded an email to a colleague to answer a question in our community and when they clicked the link, it logged them into my account automatically. I assume that's not supposed to happen?

Edit: I'm using the Magic Login Pro plugin which I guess created a magic link to auto login. So I don't think it's directly a FC issue (correct me if I'm wrong).

Sorry another quick question... can I add the plugin to my existing wordpress website and keep the existing pages that are set up, design etc? Or would it wipe existing styles (Astra/Elementor)

So I'm trying to set up messaging/chat for my forum but where do I get the App ID etc? Is that something else I need to buy or should have myself?
And is there a way we can further customise the look of the forum particularly in its white manifestation? Slightly changing the background page colour to off white or something, adding a community banner across the top of the forum

Is there a straightforward way of surfacing a list of clickable topics for the user please?

Hi everyone - I tend not to advertise my premium products here but am making one exception to let you know I'll be winding down my lifetime deal if anyone was still interested. I launched it at the end of last year when things were very early in development and have since released Events Pro, Progressive Web App, Push Notifications, Directory, Blog, Bookmarks, Custom Menus, Widgets Pro, Course Blocks, Multi-Reactions, Real-time support, Custom Themes, and Global Search. As things have got more stable I'll be giving my website a refresh to reflect what's there and to price things up individually and as bundles, but until then this is all available in the LTD.

You can get here now with split payment options available, whilst stocks last.

I appreciate many of you are purists and are waiting for some of this to come in the core FC product and that's fine, this stuff likely isn't for you. In the event any of this is released in core I will ensure easy migration/compatibility.

Add-ons currently available:

Events
Complete event management and registration add-on. Adds events directly into your community. Allows for user submitted and controlled events, recurring events, custom registration forms, space restricted events, and more.

Progressive Web App + Push Notifications

Directory

Add a filterable directory inside your community. Users can submit and manage their own listings. Customise the directory name, slugs, categories etc.

Blog + Community Comments

Bring your wordpress blog posts into your community. Choose from several display options. Use in conjunction with Community Comments to link your blog post to a space post and share the comment thread between all three.

Multi-reactions

Replace the default heart-like button with a facebook style multi-reaction selector. Choose which reactions to include. Adds a new reaction modal with a breakdown for each chosen reaction.

Custom Display Names
Customise how your members are shown in your community. Choose username, first name, or any custom pattern.

Global Search
Replace the default search with one that searches across all posts, comments, courses, lessons, members, events, blog posts, and wordpress pages.

Real-time

Add real-time notifications and content to your comment. Configure pop up toaster notifications to show user presence and activity. Add a "members online" and "viewing space" widgets to your feed.

Build custom menus and widget areas for your community. Display different widgets and menus based on your role/membership etc. Choose from presets or build your own.

Hello Folks,

Here from the start, trying to make a better community for my members and for me also, as a small business owner, i want to give you my honest review, regarding my attempt to make an app for my Fluent Community website.

I think the best solution for now is from Fluent Community addons, the PWA from Ross is great. Pretty solid, notifications and settings are sweet. Pretty much everything that a small community needs.

I was very anxious about the future, i saw LazyCoders, maybe its not the right fit for me and then i saw James Elrod and the things they are building.

I took the chance to use their trial and i will continue towards them.

The app is fast as Flash, load time under a sec, you can customize pretty anything and the managed package is so easy to customise.

That's all, i do not know why i am telling you this, but my feeling is that this managed app can help you.

Thanks

Hi everyone,

We've built a purchase flow where users buy on an external WordPress
site and get access to a FluentCommunity portal on a separate install.

We use the incoming webhook to create the user and enroll them in a course.
Everything works correctly, the user is created and enrolled.

The problem is onboarding: the new user has no idea what password to use
to log in. We need to send them login credentials after account creation.

How are other people handling this?

Options we've considered:

1. Pass user_password in the webhook and send it via welcome email, but
   it seems the password field may not be applied as expected
2. Send a password reset link after account creation, but this feels like
   poor UX for a paid product
3. Use FluentAuth Magic Login Link, seems like the cleanest solution but
   we'd like to understand if there's a simpler native approach first

What's the recommended flow for sending a new user their first login
access after being created via incoming webhook?

Thank you

Hello,

Whether you are a dev or a community member, would you kindly let me know what you think of these ideas?

Conditional access requirements

Private space: instead of a simple "Request Access" button, space owners could define one or more conditions, for example:

• enter an access code;
• answer a question;
• write a short application;
• accept specific rules;
• meet predefined requirements (e.g. complete profile fields).

Mandatory spaces (that you can't leave)

Allow administrators to designate certain spaces as compulsory, preventing users from leaving them. This would be useful for spaces such as Announcements, Welcome, etc.

Link courses to spaces

Allow one or more courses to be associated with a space.

Examples:

• enrolling in a course automatically grants access to its space;
• a space can be restricted to enrolled students
• the space can also serve as an internal way to promote courses related to the space topic.

Limit the number of joined spaces

Could the maximum number of spaces a user may join depend on:

• paid membership;
• community level or leaderboard points;
• administrator-defined permissions?

For example, free members could join 2 spaces, while premium members would have unlimited access.

Remove the descriptions displayed beneath each space access type. The labels Public, Private, and Secret are already self-explanatory, and the additional text adds unnecessary visual clutter. The description is quite redundant across the community.

Instead of opening a space directly on the discussion feed, add a dedicated Overview (or Home) tab that serves as the space's main page. This page could highlight the most important information, such as the space's guidelines and announcements, before users jump into the discussion.

Do you think these features would be technically feasible in future updates?

More generally, I'd be interested in understanding how you envision integrating a membership system with space permissions, course access, community levels, and limits on the number of spaces a user can join. The current paywall implementation is quite limited. It only supports placing one space at a time behind a paywall, and the configuration process could be much more intuitive (for a noob like me at least!)

Thank you!
