Fluent Messaging question
Is there any reason why the Messages tab (shown at the bottom-right of the screen on desktop) doesn’t work when using the Fluent Community template?
Pages using the FC template still seem to use the old messaging system, with Messages displayed in the top header instead of the new bottom-right tab.
Is this intentional, or is it something that hasn’t been implemented for the FC template yet?
I think the FC template definitely needs some love - it's a great tool, just not quite perfect yet.
Jonathan Gwyer Same for Fluent Messaging.
I think, that it's a really nice add-on.
But there is room for improvement.
For example:
I'd love to see a direct integration between Messages and Fluent CRM.
I think of it as a no-brainer: you can send a transactional email from FCRM, but you can not send a messsage using Fluent Messaging.
I think it will be a smart feature.
Receiving a DM feels more "personal" than an email; and could be useful in many situations. But, there is simply not an integration or "talk" between Fluent Messaging and FCRM at the moment.

Thanks for reporting this. We're bringing the floating Messages widget to FluentCommunity template pages in the next release. Until then, you can enable it with this snippet using FluentSnippets or Code Snippets:
add_action('fluent_community/before_portal_dom', function () {
if (!class_exists('\FluentMessaging\App\Hooks\Handlers\ChatAppHandler') || did_action('fluent_community/portal_head')) return;
echo '<style>ul.fcom_user_context_menu_items li.top_menu_item.fcom_chat_notification_holder { display: none; }</style>';
});
add_action('fluent_community/template_footer', function () {
if (!class_exists('\FluentMessaging\App\Hooks\Handlers\ChatAppHandler')) return;
(new \FluentMessaging\App\Hooks\Handlers\ChatAppHandler())->loadChatComponents();
echo "<script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded',()=>document.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent('fluentComPortalAppReady')));</script>";
});
Once the update is out, you can remove the snippet.
