How was Roadmap Link Embedded?

Shahjahan Jewel Maybe covered, but could you explain how you embedded the Roadmaps content above into the Community space https://community.wpmanageninja.com/road-maps/. Until there is proper embedding, is your hack shareable?

Inquiring minds want to know!

This is just a guess. When you edit a space. Change the default lock screen type to "custom Lock". At the top is a tab Lock screen. Edit the design of the banner and call to action.

Ryk Melck Sounds interesting, tried to find default lock screen type but don't see that in settings anywhere. Any chance of a screenshot in case that could be a solution.

Daniel Herrera here we go

The "Lock Screen" settings only take affect if you use the "Custom Lock Screen" option.

Ryk Melck Cool, so worked out what you meant and could recreate that but clicking the button View Blogs takes you out of FC again of course. Also their Roadmap link and page is on the Top Level.
But good to know about this custom lock page for getting people to sign/buy into spaces.

Daniel Herrera if you want to embed a page inside the Community as it was done with the Roadmap you need to just wait to get out of the box solution. There are many request for page embeds (inside the fCommunity but also take some elements from the fCommunity layout and embed it into the regular WP Page).

Adding related link so the fTeam can follow.

Mat ‎ Aha see you were on that one. Just that as they now have this solution for Roadmap, good to see this could be the way embeds work.

adding also a link to the Roadmap idea for Theme Compatibility

Seamlessly integrate FluentCommunity elements like headers and sidebars into your theme to build custom page templates. Also, provide the full app as a shortcode so you can paste that into any of your pages.

Daniel Herrera there were many request and I believe some kind of embeding or customization will be possible. Embeds inside the existing Fluent Community could be out of the box solution for many of users. Keep fingers crossed.

Mat ‎ I can see a way of hacking this. and I was able to do something similar. I used the custom lock option for 3 pages. Copied their links etc to be added to the menu and buttons. Then used custom CSS to hide the spaces from the group. 😀

Mat ‎

Ryk Melck you are a master so for now there is a workaround. It would be good to have this implemented as a standard feature if needed - the Roadmap is open so users can be creative there

Ryk Melck

Mat ‎ yep! We need a proper solution.

The roadmap page is a regular WordPress page and we are doing some R&D about it. The method is really technical and it's a part of our R&D. Our ultimate goal is make the feature available to everyone and make it super easy and native.

Daniel Herrera

Thanks Shahjahan Jewel, good to see that solution and know its coming. The non wordpress nature of FC is def stirring things up, but i'm confident in you and your team.

Shahjahan Jewel

Daniel Herrera Maybe I will write a blog post about the so-called "non-WordPress nature of FC" which is untrue. Not sure why someone told to people that.
