Fluent Community – Community Plugin with a Native Course Builder

If you’re looking for a solution where you can build a community with an educational platform, then FluentCommunity is the right option for you.

Community is the heart of a business or cause when you want to interact with your stakeholders. And a Facebook group is not quite the solution because at some point you have no control over a large third-party platform.

Think about your own social media. The place where you make the rules and you decide what to do next. That’s where Fluent Community comes in, a revolutionary WordPress plugin to build a community within your WordPress site.

What’s wrong with the existing solution?

Existing solutions for building a community are not as optimal as we need. They lack innovations and can’t meet the expectations accordingly. From there, WPManageNinja got inspired to bring a new solution, especially when our customers requested one.

They’re slow: Users mostly complain about the heavy loading of the plugins. When you need faster performance because you and your users expect

Third-party dependency: Other plugins are heavily dependent on third-party applications. If you want to unlock more features, you need tools built by external developers. With so many third-party applications, not only you are 

Pricing cuts your bank: Usually, the available solutions cost very high. We were considering whether we could present a less expensive solution. 

The learning curve is high: If you’re a user of an existing community solution, you know how hard it is to learn about the platform and adjust yourself around the product. If the tool is not easy to grasp, then you’ll lose so much time just to know the settings, instead of building

No built-in LMS: Course creation is a significant part of a community. Actually, they’re connected. When you offer courses you need a platform where people discuss their learning. When you build a community around your expertise, people want you to create a course for them. The existing community builders are dependent on third-party LMS tools to provide online learning facilities. 

Why Fluent Community?

You can guess from the above reasons that Fluent Community is here to resolve the pain points so our users can enjoy a flawless environment to build their community. Let’s have a quick look at how Fluent Community is a better solution.

What you can do with Fluent Community

With Fluent Community, you can do two main things. Building community and creating courses. There are other features, but for now, let’s focus on the two prime parts. From its name, it’s clear that the plugin is for building online communities. You’ll decide what will be the community for, it completely depends on your business and activities. 

At the same time, you can build an online education platform. We’ve included the course-building option since online learning and community are highly associated with each other. Usually, other tools connect a third-party LMS tool or plugin to enable the education platform. And there’s nothing wrong with that. But that creates a dependency on an external tool while adding more costs to your invoice, not to mention the heaviness of the site loading.

Fluent Community is unique in this regard, allowing you to create a community and build courses at the same time without subscribing to an extra tool. You can build and manage courses natively, and there will be more features to come.

Create community, nurture your fanbase

Fluent Community has all the power and structure to build a community right from your WordPress dashboard. I’ll not go into the details of each feature, rather I’ll show you some sneak peek so you can get a quick idea.

Right upon entering the portal you’ll get a Dashboard. That’s where you can streamline community activities from one place and get a bird-eye view of what’s going on.

Another important part of Fluent Community is Spaces. You can think of this as groups where you’ll engage with like-minded people and let them discuss their favorite topics.

In addition, users can personalize their Profile, just like they do on social media. That includes uploading the profile picture, adding a profile description, integrating social handles, and more.

Your community members can post across different spaces they’re in. They can interact with text, images, emojis, and GIFs. Even they can create polls to address any issues.

The built-in chat functionality is a brilliant feature of Fluent Community. You can enable your members to chat privately with others, without requiring any third-party messenger app.

Comments and Reactions are other powerful parts. Users can comment on a post and reply to a comment with text, images, and GIFs. At the same time, they can react to the posts, comments, and replies.

Additional tools to boost engagement

Fluent Community has a grand arrangement to engage your audience. That’s one big point that creates a difference with other solutions. We treat the tool as a means to grow your community

Let’s start with the Leaderboard where you can display your top contributors with some badges that inspire others to contribute more.

Another tool is Mentions. With that, you can mention a member in the post or comment while getting auto-suggestions.

Users can also create Hashtags like other social media in order to make a topic trending. Hashtags also help to find a topic easily.

Utilize the search facility to find posts, topics, and members. Users can find anything via the search bar across the whole community.

You can apply different levels of privacy – public, private, and secret. Whether it’s a course or a community, you can keep access level according to your choice.

Although I’ve mentioned once, I think Polls need to be highlighted. You can arrange polls and surveys to get people’s opinions on a certain topic.

Create courses with the in-built course builder

Let’s start with the course editor, where you can create and manage courses easily. With the power of the Gutenberg editor, designing and organizing courses is easier to manage. Building and developing courses is a guided process and kind of self-explanatory.

Next up, delivering content is smooth with Fluent Community, making sure students get the learning materials whenever they want. 

Students can engage in interactive discussions based on courses and lessons. Since the forum is built-in, users can easily talk about any lessons at the native environment. 

Student management is a significant part of any learning management system. Fluent Community ensures seamless enrollments, privacy, performance, and more.  

Student progress can be monitored with the default progress tracking. This will make sure both educators and learners are on the same page.

Final note – best community and learning management solution for WordPress

If you own a community, you can think about transferring it to the Fluent Community. If you want to build a new community, you can start your journey with Fluent Community. The features, simplicity, and user experience make the tool the best in its category.

Let’s own the community you’ve built. It’s time to say goodbye to the expensive, heavy, and third-party (where you have little control) solutions.
