Introducing FluentCommunity 1.7.5 - Another Awesome Update πŸŽ‰

We are excited to announce the release of FluentCommunity 1.7.5, which features several new and exciting enhancements.

In this version, we made major improvements to our feature modules. We redesigned the course landing page to show more course details, instructor info, and a modern lesson layout. You'll love the new look! We also added a lesson preview feature, letting you set certain lessons as previews.

We introduced link-type support for space groups, allowing you to add any link and control visibility based on space or course membership. This is a big upgrade for many users! You can also manage these access controls via custom sidebar links.

We added a data sync feature, letting you disable syncing between the community and WordPress user display names for better privacy.

We included a few new API hooks for developers.

Please read the full changelog post here: https://fluentcommunity.co/blog/fluentcommunity-1-7-5/

Custom Links 😍

only one word: Awesome.

Edit: Do u think will it be possibile to have link visibility by Wordpress roles? I'd like to have some link visible only for e-commerce managers

p.s. EDIT ME REMOVED...That's the GAME CHANGING FEATURE!

Michal Paczula

Shahjahan JewelΒ awesome update thanks!

2 quick things

  1. Course Content - there is no string to translate
  2. Badge - if user have multiple badge, this is look badly (not only here, this is general problem in FC)

Artur Abakarov

Michal Paczula a lot of badges in general look bad..... I confess i even take more than 1 with pain in my eyes

Raiyan Marzan

Michal PaczulaΒ Noted. Thank you!

Raiyan Marzan

Michal Paczula I just checked and found that 'Course Content' is already included in the translation strings. Could you please check again on your end?

Michal Paczula

Raiyan MarzanΒ you're right - this is cache issue

Ross FCA

Looks great! Can't wait to try out the new course layout.

Ross FCAΒ hey ross, any news about implementing tags of fluentcrm for you sidebar link visibility?

Jonathan Gwyer

Excellent. But now we've got that instructor information showing - it would be good if there is a way to change who the instructor is - I set the courses up for my clients.

Rui Venda

Jonathan GwyerΒ Yes. We need to have a way to change the instructor or even have multiple instructors, since it could be the case where multiple ones are taking care of the course.

James Robinson

Rui VendaΒ Absolutely multi instructor is a must.

Jonathan GwyerΒ It's NOT pretty but if you're a bit handy with WP and ... the SQL databases (and PHP MyAdmin) ... you can change the user number to the WP user you want to be the teacher of the course.

Simpler option: create the course logged in as that user.

Rui VendaΒ Multiple instructors would be amazing!

Bryan William

Boom Bada Gbish... Lovely

Well done! and thank you! ... another good feature to add to courses is the course cover image like we have for spaces.

Morgan McArthurΒ that already exists, but it's a bit hidden

Antonios TriantafyllakisΒ can show me exactly where you see this as hidden? I don't see this feature for the feature cover image, only thumbnail image

Awesome! Thanks of the great updates. Let's go for events and have the greatest plugin ever!

Shahjahan JewelΒ Documents & files still not allowing external links?

Elisa Spiegel

Hoang HxnΒ would be great if it would allow the WordPress media library too

Hoang Hxn

Shahjahan JewelΒ The course should have an additional Public/Private filter (Allows customization of public = free and private = paid labels) to classify free and paid courses πŸ™

You guys ROCK! Fluent Community, Fluent CRM, Fluent Forms, Fluent Booking...blown away. I cannot imagine WordPress without you. Thank you.

How can we change who the instructor is?

It's currently listed at the incorrect admin account in all of our courses.

Mike Rads

I do not have the "Public users can view the lessons without enrolling the course" option for existing courses. It shows up if I create a new course. I have the pro version.

Awesome update. Kudos Ninjas.
I was hoping Ninjas would adopt the Course Featured Image idea by Noelle MenaΒ  and make it native. https://community.wpmanageninja.com/portal/space/community-meta/post/here-is-css-javascript-to-ge This is a really awesome feature to have. Shahjahan JewelΒ Please consider this. Thank you.

Tim OlukayodeΒ Yeagh! Noelle MenaΒ provided a temporary solution via custom code till it it can be integrated properly into the course menu settings. Looking forward for the ninja's to to make this appear πŸ™Œ

Does Fluent Community supports RTL?
Meaning that the navigation menu is on the right side?

Sella Yoffe

hi Shahjahan JewelΒ 

Sent you this dm several days ago:
I have two show-stopping issues with FluentCommunity. Both are related to RTL.
1) tagging people based on their Hebrew names

2) Digest emails are not RTL or any other emails sent to community users, such as those sent during posting.

I would appreciate a timeline for resolving these issues.
Thanks
Sella

This updates are great! I love it. But when are you introducing a certification system?

Deckard Cain

Great job.

Please add file support for mp3, mp4 and gif autoplay support.

Tomas Howlin

Fabulous! πŸ™Œ

Love the modern layout!

question Shahjahan JewelΒ , is there a reason why not all installed blocks are available? Would be nice to be able to embed forms or booking calendars

Also, I really miss shortcode support

Wilco

Nice updates, but I feel the whole commenting and thread should need some attention now. I have said this many times before, larger threads are horrific to go through. This needs to be better and I made many suggestions before on how to do that. But just take a look at Discourse our NodeBB and you instantly see how much easier it's to go through long threads.

Admin j

WilcoΒ also, FOLLOWING/FRIEND other users would boost engagement significantly so people would get notified every time someone they follow post a comment or thread! It is a must-need feature for a community, the most important one. Why would you want to add more features if you can't keep your audience back to the community?

Data Sync Privacy Settings! πŸ₯³πŸ₯³πŸ₯³

Very Minor, but details matter. Here (circled in red) should say 1 of 3 Sections, not lessons, as thats a counter for the sections to complete within the course progress.

Mike R

Shahjahan JewelΒ Don't quite understand what "disable syncing between the community and WordPress user display names" accomplishes or how this works?

When theme integration will work with woocommerce pages?
