🚀 Taking FluentCommunity Courses to the Next Level

Hi everyone ! Hi Shahjahan Jewel  !!!

First of all, let me say how much I love your products!! I use them daily and they’ve become a central part of my ecosystem. THANKS FOR YOUR WORK!!!

That’s why I’m reaching out to you directly: there is a real need to take the courses inside FluentCommunity to the next level.

I’d love to know if the improvements I’m outlining below are aligned with your roadmap — or if this is not the direction FluentCommunity will be heading :


1. 🎨 Visual & User Interface Enhancements

  • Course Banner: Ability to add a hero image or background video for each course in front
  • Contextual Sidebar: Replace the current navigation with a customizable sidebar showing sections/lessons and contextual info per course, fluentForms...
  • Action Button Placement: Move the “Lesson Completed” button directly below the video for better usability.
  • Modern Navigation: Add an off-canvas/toggle menu for a cleaner, more compact navigation experience.

2. 🧩 Course Structure & Organization

  • Intermediate Level: Introduce a missing level between Course and Lesson (e.g., Section, Module, or Chapter) for long-form content.
  • Categorization & Folderization: Organize courses into categories and folders for clearer navigation.
  • Diploma Page: Generate a personalized certificate/diploma page upon course completion (name, date, logo).
  • Points System: Award points for completing lessons, opening the door to gamification and engagement strategies.

3. 📋 FluentForm Integration

  • Forms in Courses: Insert a form via shortcode inside a lesson or in the course sidebar.
  • Conditional Display: Show forms or blocks conditionally (e.g., unlock a quiz after watching a video, display a survey at the end of a module).

Main Objectives:

  • Make course evaluations easier.
  • Build more advanced quizzes.
  • Use opt-ins in free courses to create a conversion funnel.

4. 📅 FluentBooking Integration : planned ! Yes!


5. 📊 Reporting & Analytics

  • Unified Dashboard: A dashboard in the same style as FluentForm/FluentCart for consistency and ease of use.

  • Detailed Tracking:

    • See unviewed videos.
    • Track video watch time per learner.
    • Global and individual statistics (progress, points, badges).

6. ⚡ Automations & FluentCRM Integration

Trigger automations inside FluentCRM based on learner activity:

  • Course or lesson started (not enrolled)
  • Course or lesson not started after X minutes/days/months.
  • Add points (e.g., after completing a quiz).
  • Remove points (e.g., inactivity, missed validation).

Thanks so much in advance for your answer !!

Fluent Community's Course UI and UX is fine for now as it can definitely be improved over time. But its Lesson's UI and UX demand some face lifting. To give an example, you could consider looking at "The Focus Mode" of the popular LMS plugin, which actually provides the feeling that you are indeed inside a focused learning space. Fluent Community's Lesson UI ,unfortunately, feels like you are not in a very focussed space and are just left learning in an open, random space. We can make it better. And I am sure it will be so as WpManageNinja, particularly Shahjahan, is well known for lending his constructive ears to his users' feedback.

I stopped using fluent community for now untill they add auto generated certificate. am using tutor lms.

hope fluent community add certificate. its a core of online lear;ng

Jorge de los Reyes

Angela Grolet have you tried auto generate it via API?

There are interesting services over there that can actually create nice certificates.

Angela Grolet

Jorge de los Reyes  i tried all of certificate builders, by far far, tutor lms is the best! 95% way less complex than the rest!. also its integrated with fluentcrm.

i want ready to go plugin. am tiredof api and mixing so many codes....

Jorge de los Reyes

Angela Grolet of course. Having this natively… could not be compared.

I was specifically thinking of https://certifier.io/

Very straight forward.

Just in case it can be useful for you until (if) this is available on FC

DAVID MOUSSEBOIS

QUi voilà ;-) Donc je t'écris en français. I would add to have a single place to respond to yopus lesson comments or in the community

Morgan McArthur

These are great suggestions, have you included them in the roadmap as featured suggestions?

Morgan McArthur

fyi.. I know they are not aiming to make their course section too advanced like a heavy duty LMS however the more important basic/intermediate features should definitely be added.

Mateusz Gola

Definitely, we need it! +10
