FCE Shortcodes v1.0.0 - bring fCommunity into your Wordpress
Hi all,
Another very early version of an fCE plugin, this time to enable shortcodes. I've got a lot more of these to come and would welcome suggestions for what people are waiting for. So far we have:
🔍 Course search - add a filterable list of your courses anywhere on your wordpress site
👥 Community stats - display your community stats anywhere on Wordpress. Total members, total posts, total comments, active users. Customise based on Space, timeframe etc
📚 Course stats - show enrollment and completion data of your courses on your Wordpress pages
As always, expect bugs, will fix if you let me know.

Great! Good job. The events page gives an critical error
Sam Jansen which page sorry? Do you have a live site. Really hard to test these with all different plugin configurations.
Ross Your community. And than the events page. I think the events calendar plugin you had there
Sam Jansen ah ok I thought you meant on your own site. Yeah I'm working on a separate events calendar plugin, you can ignore that 😀
Ross aah cool! The events calendar is pretty bloated and extensive. I like the approach of the eventon plugin better. Or cpt/own plugin indeed.
Ooh, wow. Awesome! I'd love to be able to sort the courses by category (e.g. Marketing, Publishing, Finance) and/or experience levels: Beginner, Intermediate, Pro.
In the stats, love the sleek and simple black and white. Maybe an option for colors?
Looking great!
Erin Wright Thank you :) It did start out more colourful but thought people would have different themes etc so tried instead to theme it more like Fluent. There is minor customisation available and I'll increase this with next versions. I didn't want to spend too much time refining, better to get it in peoples hands and refine that way.
Ross H good point. It may be better to have just the text show so we could style it with our themes more easily. Would slim the code and make it more flexible with any theme.
Are there separate short codes for each individual counter or is that all together?
Curtis Marshall each counter individually or there's a grid option to include multiple like I have there.
This is awesome
This is a pretty neat plugin. Is there a way to only display text with no icons and no styling or boxes? I already had an icon where I wanted to display the total members, but somehow I have another box inside of a box. That would be awesome. Thanks!
Jaime Santiago Not as of yet. Hadn't got a lot of feedback on this yet so haven't focused on it as it's not one I'm using personally. You should be able to tackle it with some css.
.fce-stat-icon {
display: none !important;
}
.fce-stat-label {
display: none !important;
}
That would get rid of the icon and label
To style the box you can target .fce-community-stat
Ross H Sweet, let me try that. Thank you
Ross H see this would allow us to style it to our themes easily.
I only read the README and I am flashed. Sounds so nice!
I will try out the next few days (just building two fluentcommunities, my own and one of a client, she is launching tomorrow).
How do you like feedback? Here, in comments?
Nicole Y. Männl - NY Digital Great thanks Nicole. Feedback here for now is fine :)
Critical error on your website Ross H ?
Ria Kaashoek Which one? All working here. Main site for plugins is https://fluentcommunityaddons.com/
Oh, I see its the hoolet website, yeah that's my testing site so goes down quite a bit!
Ross H wow I love your site and the plugins!! 🙏
Ross H Great looking website and your plugins are great. The Dynamic Content one looks very interesting to me. Any idea when it might be available? Thanks!!
Thomas Oates Thanks :) Those features are present in the original Fluent Community Everywhere plugin https://acamedia.uk/fluent-community-everywhere-1.2.4.zip
I stopped developing that and started to split the features out into their own plugins and haven't got round to doing it with those yet. They work though, dynamic menu items and space widgets.
Ross H I thought a couple of those features sounded familiar. The big one listed that I'm most interested in is the extended user profiles. Has that already been released and I missed it? Thanks!
Ross FCA Do you have a shortcode to display the leaderboards?
Ceez Vision Not currently, haven't looked at this plugin in a while but if there's demand for it I can definitely take a look to update it. I have a full Leaderboards plugin in the works and may opt to include it in there.
You have a leaderboards plugin for fluent community?
The leaderboards would be a great add to the blocks plugin you created.
can i use that to get user first name / profile picture on the webpages (elementor) ?
