# How to sell courses with FluentCart

FluentCart is a WordPress store plugin. RootWright LMS can sell courses through it: a FluentCart order grants access, and a refund or ended subscription removes it. You do not need a separate checkout.

## Before you start

* Install and activate **FluentCart**. RootWright LMS detects it automatically.
* Have at least one course published in RootWright LMS.

## Link a course to a FluentCart product

::: steps

1. Open the course in the course builder and click **Pricing & Access**.
2. Under **Store product**, in **Link a product**, choose **FluentCart** as the **Store**. Then type at least two characters in **Product** to find an existing product, or click **Create FluentCart product** to make one from the course.
3. Click **Update** to save the course.
   :::

Under **Settings → Checkout & stores**, the **Default store** setting decides which store sells courses when more than one is connected. Choose **Automatic (store priority)** to keep the built-in order, or pick FluentCart to always sell through it.

## What grants and removes access

| FluentCart event | RootWright LMS action |
|---|---|
| Order paid, or order completed | Grants access. |
| Order refunded | Removes access. |
| Subscription renewed, reactivated or resumed | Grants access. |
| Subscription expired | Removes access. |
| Subscription ended | Ends the plan. |
| Subscription canceled | RootWright LMS does not change access on this event. |

## Billing limits

FluentCart can bill only on these intervals: daily, weekly, monthly, every 3 or 6 months, or yearly. Courses on another interval cannot be sold through FluentCart. The plugin says so with an error naming the course.

## Thank-you page

After checkout, a student goes to the course thank-you page only when every item in the order is a course.
