Modules FAQ

Everything about the 118 install-on-demand modules.

What is a module?

A module is an optional, niche capability you can add to your community. Bonfire ships 118 modules you can install on demand, so each community only runs what it needs.

How do I enable a module?

Go to Admin → Module Store, find the module, and enable it for your community. It activates immediately. You can also ask the AI Owner Copilot to toggle modules for you (it confirms first and logs the change).

How do I disable a module?

Return to Admin → Module Store and turn it off. Disabling hides the module without deleting your underlying data.

Why isn't a module showing up after I enabled it?

Check these in order:

  1. Right community. Modules are enabled per community — confirm you're in the correct one.
  2. Hard refresh. Reload the app (or clear the PWA cache) so the new navigation appears.
  3. Permissions. Some module surfaces are role- or tier-gated; confirm your role and the member's tier allow access.
  4. Still off. Re-open Admin → Module Store and verify the toggle is actually on.
  5. Audit log. If you used the AI Copilot, check the audit log to confirm the toggle action completed.

Can the AI Copilot tell me which modules are on?

Yes. Ask the AI Owner Copilot to list enabled modules or run analytics on module usage.

  • Use the AI Owner Copilot to toggle modules
  • Configure roles and permissions

FAQ

Are modules free? Module availability follows your Bonfire plan; enable any included module from the Module Store.

Do modules apply to all members at once? Yes, a module is enabled at the community level, then governed by roles and tiers.

Will disabling a module delete its data? No. Disabling hides the feature; your data is preserved if you re-enable it.

Can members enable modules? No. Only owners/admins manage modules in Admin → Module Store.
