Plus for FluentCommunity v2 now released.
This is a major release that introduces a completely new Plus administration experience alongside several powerful new publishing, integration, and community-management systems.
What’s new
– New Plus v2 Control Center and dedicated admin workspaces
– New Theme Studio for Menu, Topic, and Badge styling
– New Publishing Rules and historical content backfill
– New per-rule post-content customization
– New Feeds in Spaces for RSS, Atom, and public FluentCommunity sources
– New Discord in Spaces inbound and outbound automation
– New Content Archiving workspace
– New User Hub support for secured Plus Admin Notes
– Destination-specific mappings and extensive duplicate prevention
– Numerous compatibility, security, interface, and reliability fixes
Existing Plus features—including Analytics, Admin Notes, Messaging Controls, Profile Fields, and Download Tracking—remain available inside the reorganized v2 experience.
Before updating, I recommend backing up your site. After installing v2, open the new Plus 4 FCom menu and review your enabled Enhancements, Add-ons, Publishing Rules, and integrations.

And the new v2 User Manual
Just as an FYI, v2 is just the foundation for several more improvements and features that will be coming.
I am also going to be releasing another plugin I'm working on called User Hub for Fluent aka User Hub/UHF. To get a preview of it, just go look at your profile here. For now, the Custom Profile Fields and User Hub are separate, but in the future they may become one.
The goal of User Hub is to create a centralized profile for your users rather than multiple if you have several fluent products such as FluentCart, FluentCommunity, FluentAffiliate... and so forth. You will also be able to sync in the normal WordPress account for posts or to just simply replace the FCom profile. So while it's main focus is for Fluent products, it will still work without them.
Jeff Brigman Looks great so far!
Jeff Brigman for posts being published to the feed can we select which user should show as the author? Right now all the posts show as authored by me.
Chris this was an accidental omission on my part and I had intended to have the same granular controls the other two have. I will push out a minor update soon to include this. It will have a global and individual rule settings allowing you to set the author.
Jeff Brigman greatly appreciated!
Chris doing final testing and should have it ready soon.
You will be able to set the global author, which if not set defaults to the original author and then to the FCom super admin if it's not set or the OP doesn't exist in FCom.
Publishing rules also has the Post As which will override the global, and has the same fallback protections as global.
