I toast to the best e-commerce plugin in the world 🥳
Yes! I really believe that 😁
Natascha Vantuykom, I am incredibly grateful to you and Jorge de los Reyes
I definately need more help with taxes.
Shahjahan Jewel If you have any questions about taxes in the EU, specifically Slovakia and the Czech Republic, feel free to write, I will forward the details to our accounting/tax company.
Shahjahan Jewel Count on that! 😄 Thank you for all the dedication - always happy to help, and truly glad our paths crossed!
Nice job!
Congrats on the launch!!
I bought a lifetime license immediately! I really can't wait to start using it!
I really hope other plugins get on it and start making integrations ASAP. Thanks so much for the hard work Shahjahan Jewel and team!
Best of the best. Congrats!
Brilliant work Shahjahan Jewel! and to the whole team for having everything ready on record time!
You can feel the dedication and relentless effort behind every detail.
Proud to witness the beginning of a new era!
Jorge de los Reyes everything ready? Where's the developer documentation?
Unfortunately I cant use it. At this point, im simply to integrated with Woocommerce, but i am sure FC would be fine for most that do not have complex eCommerce sites.
Shahjahan Jewel Thank you, we have 50LTD and look forward to truly changing the WordPress e-commerce environment. Translations into Slovak and Czech are already in the process ... I wish you pleasant and creative days 🖖
Juraj Hudák Thank you so much. Please feel free to send me the language files for pro so we can pack it in the package.
Shahjahan Jewel No worries, you've already provided access to translations for me and my colleague, so all you have to do is add FluentCart and I believe we'll add that soon. https://profiles.wordpress.org/jurajhudak/#content-translations
some suggestions to add to fluent cart
- when marking shipped it should give the ability to enter the tracking #/code and supplier (shipping method)
additionally, it should send an email to the recieptient that the order has been shipped and provide the tracking number in that email that was entered
on the admin page when changing the shipping status to shipped - The tracking number should be monitored via ajax or some style of request using the entered tracking number at the providers site
to when the tracking says delivered the shipping status on the dashboard is automatically changed to delivered,
and when delivered is the shipping status the order should be automatically marked as completed - Make a back in stock notification (they fill in their email)
- when you add a new product or when you go to products you should have the ability to push the specific product/products selected out to
all your customers via an email with the direct link to the product/products (so they can buy it if they want)
basically push advertising ability - add a low stock push to send out to all customers when stock for an item is low
- a wish or watch list for products
Tactical Guardian WOW! Thank you so much the detailed feedback!
Shahjahan Jewel I realized a bit later the stock quantity is already placed on the product page. I replaced the number 3 suggestion for a notice of back in stock when no more exist currently. This product is seriously DOPE. And I like alot of the products you guys make so I'm always down to test and look into things. I also code so I like features too lol.
Will this be compatible with FunnelKit?
Matthew Steinman this is what I'm hoping for too. Hard to switch from woo if no funnel builders integrate another ecomm platform
Matthew Steinman Following this aswel
Matthew Steinman You have to ask the Funnelkit team if they want to add the integration.
Matthew Steinman 🤔 Funnelkit is a woocommerce based product
Shahjahan Jewel are we going to be adding a space for FluentCart along with a roadmap on here for everyone's amazing thoughts/suggestions?
I have a few small bugs at the moment that I'm trying to work through, such as the cart integration telling me I need to download FluentCommunity despite already having it! Other than that, it's already sped up my website so much compared to WooCommerce
Shani Cipro Same problem here.
Anthony Fisher yah, we made a mistake on checking if installed or not. We will have it fixed tomorrow.
Shahjahan Jewel Thank you! Loving FluentCart already :)
Shahjahan Jewel this is good to hear. Thanks for being so on it!
Excited to install it on a few websites today!
- Will there be custom product attributes?
- Edited and deleted.
- Are products registered as a custom post type? Can we add attributes via MetaBox or ACF?
- Will product mass edits be available?
- What will the prices be after the deal ends? Does "It's kind of like the one-year license fee" mean that annual licenses for one domain are going to be $249?
- Yes. You can use any custom fields plugins to add custom data on product description editor (Builder). but we will add native atrributes support.
- It's the same.
- Yes, it's CPT so you can use all the integrations.
- Not yet.
- The annual price will be similar. Maybe 20% less than LTD.
Shahjahan Jewel Why did you edit my comment?
Daniel The point 2 that you had, that was a private for our beta users and I really don't want to confuse our users. I am sorry if you feel otherwise.
Shahjahan Jewel If it is private why can I still see it? If I have any feeling at all it would be confusion. But it is good to know that the public deals are better than those for beta testers.
Daniel Not sure where you see it?
Shahjahan Jewel I'm on mobile, not sure if I can dm you
Shahjahan Jewel check chat
Shahjahan Jewel took his time to answer all of my questions and address the technical glitch that confused me - on launch day!
I had already pulled the trigger on the deal because I'm really thinking that FluentCart will absolutely replace WC for my use cases in a few months.
Thank you so much for your time and answers - and I hope I didn’t sound too harsh! Hoping to contribute in a more positive way in the near future.
Daniel Thanks for understanding and replying to my message. See you around.
is it possible to have an overview of the Woocomerce migration to Fluentcart?
Ioannis Glossopoulos That would make a very good tutorial....
Hi just wondering is it possible to integrate woocomerce payment gateway as many payment gateways in my country only supports woocommerce. Thanks. Good job! Love your work.
Cassie Technically that's not possible as Payment Gateways built for woo and uses Woo's functions. But we are going to make our Payment Gateway API so simple that anyone can build a gateway easily.
Shahjahan Jewel thanks for the incredibly fast reply. That’s great! At least it is possible :)
Shahjahan Jewel I plan on helping out with that aspect. Extending the Docs API with a tutorial or two.
Shahjahan Jewel another reason why people in my local market can’t ditch woocommerce entirely is the lack of sales funnel design. I think this can be easily mixed with the help of FluentCRM. But sales funnel plugins like cartflows, WP funnels and funnelkit all heavily rely on Woo… is there any plan like this on your road map? Thanks 😇
Paal Joachim Romdahl Of course. Our team will work on these and release it.
Cassie With FluentCart, we will have a native sales funnel system. You don't need 3rd party plugins like Cartflows.
Shahjahan Jewel please... with that combines with the payment API will be my dream come true! Hopefully it’s all on recent roadmap… 😌
Cassie It's our top priority.
Shahjahan Jewel please!
So, is there a download somewhere or are we stepping in blind? Am I missing something Shahjahan Jewel ?
J V Not sure what do you mean.
Shahjahan Jewel I want to see the product before I buy. Cannot find a link.
Core plugin you can download it here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/fluent-cart/
PRO plugin you can grab it from: https://fluentcart.com/account/
Is there a Fluent Cart Community? I'm experiencing some errors and would assume you'd rather me look through the community to find answers instead of going straight to tech support. Shahjahan Jewel
AKA Stripe payment connect error: "{"error":{"message":"Standard OAuth is disabled for this account."}}"
Wendy Shoef Come back tomorrow. I think Jewel mentioned he would open it tomorrow. For now, he's had a long day.
Wendy Shoef Issue resolved. It will work now.
Shahjahan Jewel Thank you. It's working perfectly now. Glad I get to play around with it on my own website first before I do an online store for someone in the next couple of weeks.
Congrats Jewel and all the team! 🎉❤️😎💪
Pascal Claro Thank you so much. Our team loves your "instantaneous" video <3
NIce! Looking at the Roadmap I see 'Sales Funnel Q1 — Q2 2026' would this be equivalent to what Cartflows offers?
Morgan McArthur Don't know exactly the feature details but we will build it on our own way!
Shahjahan Jewel Look forward! Cartflows is probably one of the best optimized conversation checkout page plugins out there so definitely look at what they are doing and make it better! 🙌
Morgan McArthur I also enjoy FunnelKit a lot, but its Automation seems to have a lot of redundant to FluentCRM.
Shahjahan Jewel Why is Bricks at the released and coming soon listed at the integrations?
Any plans with Breakdance?
Christian Strasser The basic version of Bricks integration is done. We may add a few more components for Bricks. Let's see how many requests we get for Breakdance.
Shahjahan Jewel Do you have a board for feature request or how do you want these requests? I doubt random by comments or emails.
Shahjahan Jewel I'm a +1 * all my clients. Breakdance is the best builder I've found that allows non-tech savy end users to take over after I customize everything.
Please, please, please!!!!!
Hey Shahjahan Jewel I love your products and we use Thrivecart a ton. You're probably exhausted today but if you, a team member, or anyone from the community can answer how Fluent Cart is different/better than Thrive Cart, I'd love to hear it. Give me a reason to buy! :)
Graham Graham I will start with one: ThriveCart is a SAAS solution and you have no control over it. In the last 10 years, they have not updated much (recently updated the pro).
FluentCart is a fully self hosted, e-commerce solution.
Shahjahan Jewel Ok that was easy, you sold me! lol. Love your products and your commitment to small businesses, appreciate all your hard work. I've built a really big business with other tools and have bought much of your stuff but never had time to fully switch over, that changes now as I'm a big believer in having full control (1 of the reasons I love Wordpress). Thank you for the reply too, like I said, it's probably an exciting but tiring day for you guys! I'm buying!
Y'all did it!! Thank you, each and every one. For all of it. 🙏🏼🏆
Where can i download the free version? Its not in WP directory yet and I want to test before buying LTD
Also what about Importing and exporting products from CSV. What's ETA on that?
Will Fluent Cart have the ability to sell "External/Affiliate Products" like they have in WooCommerce?
https://woocommerce.com/document/managing-products/#external-affiliate-products
Patrick Anderson Nice question
I was ready to buy and testing out the free version but, I don't see a terms and conditions section. Is that something that is (hopefully) in the pro paid version? The way it works now, when someone buys something, they have to check a box agreeing to my terms and conditions (that I put in there) and once they check and agree, they can pay. If they don't agree and check the box, they can't check out. That's a must for me, I have to have that in there, is that possible with Fluent Cart Shahjahan Jewel ?
Graham Graham We will have T&C field which you can enable in the next version.
I bought the one site really wanted two. But I guess that deal is done. I was a little worried about slow payment processing with stripe like how woo can be. I imagine fluentcart team is using their own products and I was surprised how fast processing the transaction was. Very well done.
Darrin Rich reach out to them in a support ticket to see if you can upgrade more licenses. They've supported me in previous situations where I underestimated the number of licenses I should purchase
Janice Bennett thanks for the tip
The lunch was successful...
For this price tag, where is the developer documentation?
Nice job! I see there are EarlyBirds deals, until when is this deal available? Shahjahan Jewel
Got it! I'm really excited about this. I wanted to ask if you all would prioritize the Woocommerce sync. I have over 150 products I'd need to manually create without it. So I won't even waste my time doing it manually when the sync is coming. But I'm just hoping maybe you can add it sooner?
I have a feature request. I have not seen anything about product reviews. I currently use stamped.io for my woocommerce. What they do is send an email request for a review. The customer doesn't even have to leave the email to review and add a photo. Would this be possible to do with FluentCRM?
Jacqueline Fatica I love this idea! It would make things so much better!
Shani Cipro And even MORE cheaper for us! I can't wait to start cancelling plugins :)
Based on watching the video, playing with the demo store...
1, The demo product pages seem misleading, reviews and ratings are static etc.
2, No integration listed for Cloudflare R2 downloads, S3 is prohibitively expensive for a larger digital store
3, No integration for accountancy platforms such as Xero listed
4, Multi Currency is not accepting payments in any currency, that's simply what PayPal and Stripe offer, we'd need to be able to set prices by currency and indeed by country for emerging markets
5, Multi Vendor is an absolute must, if neccessary by brand
6, Cost of Good calculation with % of sale price after VAT
7, Integration with Google Sheets for automatic data expo
8, No Breakdance Integration
9, No Wishlist for customers to store favourite
10, Add serial key for each purchase of a produict from a csv file, auto generation doesn't work for most software resellers
I get that the Fluent universe of other plugins are intended to be used for this but Woo simply has far too many advantages at this stage, so i wish you all the very best and look forward to the devlopment until this becomes a mature platform.
Darren Cowley It’s great that you took the time to highlight all these points, Darren — they’re definitely valuable insights. However, your comment comes across a bit less as constructive feedback and more as a comparison trying to prove why Woo is still “better.”
Let’s face it: WooCommerce has been around for decades, and yet it’s still slow and bloated — even something as simple as switching from a grid to a list view costs an extra $49 per year, which is honestly ridiculous. There’s also a long list of things other plugins already handle better than Woo.
I think we should give the WPManageNinjas team some credit here — they’re building something new and ambitious, and lifetime early-bird deals are meant for those who believe in such teams and want to support their growth. What’s great about them is that they actually listen to user feedback and implement new ideas quickly.
It’s not really fair to criticize a product that’s just been launched; it’s far more productive to share suggestions that help the developers improve it and adapt it to our needs.
Fit Lehrer These are the minimum requirements for the platform to be even considered, without third party plugins this seems impossible at this stage.
Woocommerce is far more mature hence my statement about it's advantages and i hope that the Fluent team provide some solid competition.
Love the product so far and the quick fix on a few things as I was hitting a wall wondering if my site was being persnickety or if it was the plugin.
One item that I'm hoping to see tweaked is the minimum size of the store logo. It seems that it requires 512px minimum but holy smokes in the emails it's a ginormous logo if viewing on the desktop. I've tried to use a smaller logo, but I get error when saving.
And something that might be coming for the 'advanced variations' not sure - is an opportunity to just have one inventory for the item. For example, I am trying to setup a full-pay and a 2-pay. At the end of the day, I only have a select inventory for the whole item, but would like to give them the option of paying in full or installments. So if I only have 8 - I don't want to split my inventory or have to manually tweak it. So it would be nice to have the option to combine the inventory. I see that there is a 'skip' inventory on a variation, but not sure if that helps me as it seems to be on just that variation.
Shahjahan Jewel I cannot find direct checkout in product setting page, is this feature available already?
Ah.... I found it. From variations product, it's in Action. No problem now.
Are there shortcodes for products yet (not just for the shop pages)?
with creating shipping zones, this needs to be much easier to implement. I have 2 zones, 1 for my local country and 1 for international. with woo you can select 'everything else' as a zone, meaning EVERY country not already in a zone. With fluentcart I need to add a zone for each country! that is a lot of zones... We need to be able to select multiple countries per zone.
Matt Win Yes, we have noticed that. We are going to improve that.
