Hello, I've been testing the free versions of fluentcommunity and fluentcart for my upcoming church site. I'm interested in purchasing the fluentcart lifetime deal but have 2 questions, 1 regarding a future feature and another regarding an apparent technical issue.

  1. I know there has been extensive conversations about this but are there any plans to add integrations with POD programs like Printify and/or Printful? I understand that this may not seem like a huge ordeal but fluentcart is being marketed to small businesses with a variety of budgets, big and small but the only one that all the features seem to benefit are the companies who can afford to keep their own inventory.

  2. The theme I'm using - WPAstra installed Woocommerce with the starter template I'm using. I installed and then uninstalled Fluentcart when I was forced to decide between the membership features of Fluentcart or POD features of Woocommerce. Later, I finally decided to create a separate shop with Woocommerce, uninstalled it and then reinstalled Fluentcart to use the membership feature with Fluentcommunity. Everything seemed to work fine but when I try to create or save a product, I'm getting an Error that says something like in_array(): Argument #2 ($haystack) must be of type array, null given.

    I see that there was a similar issue with a previous version but has anyone identified this problem with the most recent? Any ideas on how to fix?

    I gave as many details as I could to help assess what I could have done to cause this.

    Thank you!

Hey good people.

Greetings Shahjahan JewelΒ πŸ‘‹πŸ»

I'm sharing a project, which is early in its build. But a new site is up for those who want to have a look.

For the last months, I have spent a lot time on FluentCart for new customers. This has resulted in me building 4 custom plugin extensions for FluentCart and FluentAffiliate so far. Specific needs for a couple of long-time clients.

Recently, I have decided to offer these specific builds to other site owners. And one specific extension in FluentCart has been the request for shipping integration.

For now, this is the one FluentCart plugin extension I have ready for others to access. I already have to clients using it.

So here comes Shippo integration for FluentCart πŸŽ‰

Check out the Shippo integration as the first product available on my site.

For now, this integrations focuses on getting discounted shipping rates, label printing, and full parcel tracking.

It's an early stage plugin. But looks good and works well according to feedback.

Maybe some of you will like it.

I'll share more about the other FluentCart and FluentAffiliate extension plugins later.

FluentCart first shipping integration - Shippo

Hi all, nice to meet the WPManageNinja community! I finally got about to try FluentCart since I felt that it fits a new project for a client nicely. I really love how detailed the API and dev documentations are, and although I have a decent programming background, Codex helped me create a custom payment integration with HitPay with almost one-shot using GPT 5.5 and Extra High intelligence + plan mode. You can view a short recording here: https://ss.nayfla.link/mXugQrqO. It is built and tested on the latest WP, TwentyTwenty Five theme, FluentCart version, as well as no other plugins or settings created. Built on a local Docker environment.

Was wondering if there's anyone here who can help me do some testing? Locally or staging sites only of course. I'm not great in determining security issues so Please DM or comment me if interested and I'll invite you in the Github repo so you can submit a PR if you have any fix suggestions :)

Note: This payment integration will be shared with the public for free, of course

Separate question: anyone knows how do I force users to create an account when checking out? I feel like it's a UX issue cos they get a receipt but they cannot view it (you can see the issue I face in the last few seconds of the recording above)

How can I change the image to full size or adjust it?

Hi. I'm having a problem with Fluent Cart – a client has a 12-month subscription (via PayPal). The first invoice has been sent, but no invoices are being generated for the monthly payments, even though PayPal is debiting on time. How do I resolve this issue and create the missing invoices retroactively?

I wanted to request support for Afterpay and Zip Pay integration in FluentCart.

In Australia, it’s extremely common for online stores to offer buy-now-pay-later options like Afterpay and Zip Pay. I honestly haven’t come across a major ecommerce store here that doesn’t support at least one of them.

I originally requested this feature around the time FluentCart launched, so I wanted to follow up again because I believe it would add significant value for Australian users and merchants.

Adding support for Afterpay and Zip Pay would make FluentCart far more competitive and practical for the Australian market.

is there a way to add more emails for admin notifications?

Square is now a payment gateway in FluentCart. This has been on the request list for a while. Glad we finally shipped it.

Here is what is new in 1.3.26:

  • Square Payment Gateway. Ships as a separate addon, install it with one click from your FluentCart dashboard (Pro required). One-time payments, full subscription lifecycle, and refunds (full or partial) right from the order page. Six currencies at launch: USD, CAD, AUD, GBP, JPY, EUR. Digital wallets coming soon.
  • Private products work in discounts, coupons, and order bumps now. They were invisible to the selectors before. Useful for exclusive offers, member perks, or bundle-only items.
  • Subscription setup fee shows on receipts and emails as a separate line item. No more "what is this charge?" questions.

A handful of nice fixes too:

  • Order and invoice dates render in your store's timezone now (was using UTC, so late-night purchases could show the wrong day)
  • Coupon expiration in admin shows in your local time
  • LearnDash course expiry follows the subscription or license period properly
  • Plus Safari chevron fix, duplicate save toast gone, email preview fix, and a cleaner menu styling pass

Small UX win: button feedback uses spinners now instead of swapping the text. No more layout jumps when you click save.

If you were waiting for Square, today is the day. Update from your dashboard.

More cooking πŸ‘€

I’m building FCHub Payment Plans for FluentCart. Not another gateway. Nobody needs one more β€œrevolutionary payment layer” wearing a settings page.

This plugin is for selling a product with a deposit now and the balance later.

What it does:

  • add a Payment Plan tab directly on FluentCart products
  • set a fixed deposit or deposit percentage
  • set the balance as the remaining amount or a fixed amount
  • choose a fixed balance date or β€œX days after purchase”
  • show clear checkout disclosure and consent text
  • use automatic collection when the selected FluentCart gateway supports subscriptions
  • fall back to a normal FluentCart balance payment link when automatic collection is not available
  • track schedules, reminders, retries, and gateway capability diagnostics

How is this different from built-in FluentCart installments?

FluentCart installments are subscription/installment based: intervals, trial days, bill counts, recurring logic. Very useful, but not the same as saying:

β€œPay 200 EUR today, and everyone pays the remaining balance on 15 September.”

That fixed product-level balance deadline is the bit this plugin is built around.

It will be available soon. Free & open source.

Would you use this in your FluentCart store? What is missing? What would make it actually useful instead of just another plugin with a confident changelog and unresolved trauma?
