Another release is out today, and this is a big one for stores selling physical products.
We finally shipped proper packaging support. This is the base we needed before we can build accurate shipping rate calculations and carrier integrations on top. Been wanting to get this in for a while, honestly.
The variation editor also got a full redesign. The old side panel was getting too crowded, especially once you add subscriptions with trials, setup fees, inventory, and now packaging fields too. It needed a proper rethink.
Here is what is new in 1.3.19:
- Packaging Support for Physical Products. New Packages screen at Settings β Shipping β Packages. You can create reusable package profiles (Box, Envelope, Soft Package) with length, width, height, unit, and empty weight. Assign them per variation and the data goes straight into the order. This is what rate calculators need to give you proper quotes.
- Redesigned Variation Editor. A new modal with two columns. Variations list on the left, the selected variation on the right, with clean collapsible sections for Pricing, Inventory, SKU, and Shipping. Simple edits stay simple, and complex variations finally get room to breathe.
- Lots of internal improvements.
Plus a fix for price input fields that were showing values in the wrong format, and another fix for saved views conflicting with active filters in the product list.

We may have another awesome release this week, so stay tuned. Please leave a comment about this release, especially the new redesigned Variation Editor.
Hi everyone,
I'm running a membership platform on FluentCart + FluentCommunity + FluentCRM (migrated from Digistore24) and I've hit what I consider a critical gap in the post-purchase flow. I'd love to hear how others are dealing with this β and hopefully build enough community signal to get this addressed natively.
The problem
When "Create User Account Automatically after payment" is enabled, FluentCart silently creates a WordPress user β but there is no native email sent to the customer with their username or a way to set a password. The customer completes a purchase and then has no way to log in.
Why the obvious workarounds don't work cleanly
-
WordPress default new user notification β works, but fires for every registration site-wide, not just paying customers. Also looks generic and unbranded.
-
FluentCRM Automation with
{{contact.wp_password_reset_link}}β structurally broken for this use case, because the merge tag only resolves after Double Opt-in confirmation. Paying customers shouldn't be gated behind a marketing consent flow to access what they just bought. -
Custom WP Coder snippet on
fluent_cart/order_paidβ what I'm currently using. Works, but requires custom PHP and excludes non-developer store owners from running FluentCart in a production-ready state.
What I'd expect
A native "New Account Created" email in FluentCart β Settings β Email Notifications, triggered immediately after a new user account is created post-purchase, containing the username and a password setup link. Independent of any FluentCRM Double Opt-in status.
This is standard in WooCommerce, SureCart, ThriveCart, EDD β basically every comparable platform. For FluentCart to seriously compete in the membership / digital products space (which the FluentCommunity integration explicitly targets), this needs to be a native feature.
Questions to the community
- How are you handling this in your own setup?
- Has anyone built a more elegant workaround than the WP Coder approach?
- Has the dev team given any indication this is on the roadmap?
I've already raised this via support ticket and it's been logged as an improvement request, but I think it deserves more visibility. If you're running a membership site on this stack, please chime in β the more voices, the more likely we'll see this addressed soon.
Thanks,
Philipp

Hi,
I just looked at my FluentCart Product Page and my long description is suddenly missing. Has this been deleted? I'm using FluentCart Version 1.3.18 and the Elementor Building Blocks (version 1.0.0)
Hi everyone,
I enabled First Name / Last Name in FluentCartβs Checkout Fields, and it works in the default checkout.
But Block Checkout and Modal Checkout still show a single Full Name field.
Before assuming itβs a bug, I wanted to ask:
Is this expected behavior right now, or should these checkouts follow the Checkout Fields settings?
Thanks!
Hi guys, has anyone managed to integrate videos into the FluentCart Product page Carousel like how this product page displays: https://paula269.sg-host.com/products/new-moon-dreams-duplicate-a7cf9740-duplicate-67d2b454/
Thanks in advance π
Hi FluentCart team,
First of all, thanks for adding the Mollie payment gateway in v1.2.5 β great addition for European users!
I'm running a Belgian non-profit (ASBL) that sells formations, books, and annual memberships to customers primarily based in France and Switzerland. I'm currently using Stripe for everything, but Mollie offers significantly lower transaction fees for European cards (especially French CB cards: 1.2% vs 1.5%) plus native Bancontact support.
I'd love to switch new subscriptions over to Mollie while keeping existing ones on Stripe. However, looking at the developer docs, I noticed that the Mollie gateway module currently supports "Payment, Refund, Webhook" but does NOT list "Subscriptions" β unlike the Stripe module which explicitly includes it.
So my questions:
- Can the Mollie gateway currently handle recurring subscription payments in FluentCart, or is it limited to one-time payments only?
- If not yet supported, is Mollie recurring/subscription support on the roadmap? Any estimated timeline?
- In the meantime, is it possible to run both gateways simultaneously β Mollie for one-time purchases (books, single formations) and Stripe for subscriptions β without any conflict?
This would be a game-changer for European-based stores where Mollie's pricing and local payment methods (Bancontact, iDEAL, SEPA) make a real difference.
Thanks in advance for your help!

In malaysia. We need to use e-invoice for company 1 million /year revenue. My client ask for this features..
This:
https://www.hasil.gov.my/en/e-invoice/implementation-of-e-invoicing-in-malaysia/about-e-invoice/
I have some API to make this https://sdk.myinvois.hasil.gov.my/einvoicingapi/
This is API for e-invoice malaysia to lhdn.
Is it possible to get order bumps (and checkout pages) that you can customize? Like in the example. They really need to stand out, and that is not the case now.
I see little info or questions on the topic of shipping integrations. Is nobody doing shipping like this?
I'm about to lose my client on FC now. They want to go back to Shopify if they can't have any shipping integration.
Brilliant ideas, thoughts, or comments?
Maybe I just have to build my own?
