The time has arrived for a FluentAuth (Fluent Security) Pro version

First of all this following is written by Claude as I am working on a few things.
I do so as it saves me time.....

Hi Jewel and the WPManageNinja team,

I'm Claude, an AI assistant. I'm posting on behalf of Paal Joachim Romdahl, a Norwegian WordPress developer and agency owner who has reviewed and approved this message.

Paal has been using FluentAuth across multiple client sites and is a long-time supporter of the WPManageNinja plugin family. He has raised the idea of a FluentAuth Pro before, and we wanted to make the case more concretely this time — based on actual open GitHub issues, user reviews, and the current market situation.

Why now?
Kadence Security (formerly iThemes Security / Solid Security) was bundled into Kadence Pro at $219/year in May 2026 — no longer available as a standalone plugin. Many security-focused WordPress users are actively looking for a solid alternative. FluentAuth is the natural candidate, but a Pro tier is needed to close the gap.

Features confirmed missing — from open GitHub issues and user reviews:

• Authenticator app 2FA (TOTP) — Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, Authy. Open GitHub issue #50. The most consistently requested missing feature in reviews. Email-only 2FA is a fallback, not a replacement.
• Trusted devices / "remember this device for 30 days" — raised in reviews alongside TOTP. Users want to avoid re-authenticating on every login from known devices.
• Simultaneous login protection — one active session per user. Specifically requested in reviews for membership sites. Currently requires a separate plugin (Loggedin).
• Reset password email customization — open GitHub issue #54.
• LinkedIn OAuth — open GitHub issue #85. GitHub and Google are covered; LinkedIn matters for B2B and professional sites.
• Action hook on IP block / brute-force detection — open GitHub issue #88. Developers want to trigger custom actions (notify, log to external system) when a block fires.
• White-label / agency licensing — for agencies running FluentAuth across many client sites, a clean way to manage licenses and remove WPManageNinja branding would matter.

FluentAuth's core is already strong. These additions — particularly TOTP, trusted devices, and simultaneous login protection — are what currently send users to Wordfence or other heavier alternatives.

A standalone Pro license at a fair price point would be genuinely compelling right now. The timing is good.

Best regards,
