Building a platform to host clubs.

The organizers will be managing their own Space. The organizers would pay to be an organizer! How can i make that happen in FC. would like the members to pay a small subscription also. Need automation that would make organizes managers and allow them to manage a space.

  1. Organizers sign up to be run their own space. pay subscription fee
  2. Members sign up and pay a fee

Any suggestions? I am a fluent junkie and want the Fluent products to do all the lifting.. I have pro CRM, Forms, Paymattic, Community, bookings, social ninja, and Azon Press.....

I am not a programmer!!! I cheat with Elementor and ElementsKit.

Help..............................................

Im guessing (and Im no dev) but you could add Fluent snippets and add the first one from this page:
https://github.com/WPManageNinja/fluent-community-docs/blob/master/filter-hooks.md

fluent_community/space/create_data

  • Description: Filters the data used to create a new space.

  • Parameters:

    • $dataΒ (array): The data to be used for creating the space.
  • Example:

    add_filter('fluent_community/space/create_data', function($data) {
        // Modify or add data before space creation
        return $data;
    });

Maybe look into setting up an automation with a fluent form or maybe fluent cart for the trigger and with the help of an AI like Chatgpt you could get a workflow together for this.

Can any dev out there that confirm this would be the way to do it??

Luke HubCoΒ we will try this and let you know if this works! I really appreciate the advice.

Off topic here: how does something like that work legally? Can one distance themselves from what happens in such a 'rented space'?

adding side link but still I am not sure how legally this case would be considered when there would be some illegal activities/topics in place - on one side we have UGC and on the other the service Admin/MODS plus the local law

Example - older article says:

Well, there are different answers in different countries and so let’s talk about the US for a moment. In the US in 1996 Congress enacted a law, sometimes called the Communications Decency Act of the CDA, I just refer to it as Section 230. And Section 230 basically says that websites aren’t liable for publishing third-party content. It could be user-generated content with other types of content, it could be advertising, in the case of Backpage. If the content comes from a third party, the website publishing isn’t liable for it. And that legal foundation actually really shapes the way that we think about content moderation in the United States because there is no one right answer for how to moderate content from a liability standpoint because if you moderate content aggressively you’re not liable for what you missed.

If you don’t moderate content, you’re not liable for the fact that you publish offensive third-party content. So Internet companies in the United States have the ability to dial up or down the level of content moderation to suit their particular community. Either way, whatever they choose, the legal liability answer is the same. That’s not the case in other countries, in other countries, there are different legal standards for different types of content that in many cases impose substantial legal liability for not doing more to filter or manage content, and definitely impose liability for whatever the sites might miss. So in other countries, content moderation is dictated much more by the law. The United States it’s all dictated by what the company thinks is in the best interests of its users.

Mat β€ŽΒ Thanks Mat. I am in Europe but with a website we all are basically worldwide, so it can get complex.

J VΒ yes we can.

Mat β€ŽΒ this was considered but this is for legitimate business clubs off small businesses. most of which are in our city directory or chambers of commerce. We reject businesses that are involved in Sex-entertainment, gambling etc. you are right we can never delegate our responsibility as the website host!

I am talking about business clubs. We are moving them away from using Facebook to conduct business networking and "ASKs"

this is the project mentioned. It is 100% legitimate. All registered businesses.

William DicksonΒ hi there, I guess the pricing page is a temporary one, so I'm curious, why don't you setup a full community for each organizer and charge monthly like circle does? Knowing that this is what most of those who aquired the multi license offer are doing or planing to do (me included), Or will it be too expensive for your target market?

Adel KassouriΒ this is a great point we are offering clubs a stand alone option that is a private club or a community option. Many of the organizers and members like the community offer. thanks for the suggestion as we may lean more for the stand alone options. we need to price that out. any suggestions? sorry, who or what is "circle"?

dont be critical we are still building!

UPDATE! How is your fix holding up. we tested some webhooks and it worked with organizers and member, as we sent the members to our welcome lobby and then the organizers to a space specifically made for them... next step we are using a college class of students to test our bandwidth. zogohost.com is on several VPS and we have seen some good test results with bandwidth overall. they also allow FCRM to send thousands of emails in a day with no issues... just get the right plan....

We enlisted some help from a seller on fiverr and we worked thru some bugs but ultimate got what we needed. we had to make a few concessions but over all have a few automation's in place.
