Single Connected Network

flux is a single connected network, all about sharing and discovering great content at the places where that content is actually being created. flux brings community tools to some of the best sites on the web, allowing visitors to start connecting where they are already hanging out – on the site itself.

Single Profile - Multiple Communities

Once you've joined one flux-powered community, we make it easy for members to join more. Use your same flux login information to join additional flux communities, and bring your profile, friends, and account settings along with you.


Flexible Integration

flux allows you to choose your integration method. Choose a fully hosted option and build your site completely on the flux platform. Or use APIs to build your own site hosted as you wish. Or a combined approach, to get the best of both worlds. And you can use Widgets with any integration method, to feature your content in external places on the web.


Robust Community Toolset

  • Start with a preset site template including Community, Members, Photos, Videos and Discussions.
