Customer voices
What Reign customers built. In their words.
"Reign with BuddyBoss is exactly what we needed for our coaching community. Setup support from the Wbcom team was responsive and the theme handled 1,200 active members without issues."
Jonathan
Coaching community owner
"We migrated from Mighty Networks to Reign on WordPress. Took six weeks. Worth every hour - we own the data, members can pay through our own Stripe, and the design actually matches our brand."
Priya
Course community founder
"Reign + Dokan kit shipped in five days as promised. The Wbcom team installed everything, branded it, hooked up Stripe payouts to vendors. We went live with 30 sellers on day one."

FAQ
Common questions.
What is Reign?
Reign is a WordPress theme that builds online community sites. You install it on your own WordPress install (Bluehost, Cloudways, WP Engine - any host) and pair it with one of three community platforms: BuddyPress (free), BuddyBoss (paid plugin), or PeepSo (paid plugin). Reign handles the design + member-facing pages; the platform handles activity feeds, groups, messages, and profiles.
Can I try Reign before buying?
Yes - six live InstaWP demos are linked in the section above. Each launches a fresh WordPress sandbox in 30 seconds with Reign installed and one community platform (BuddyPress, BuddyBoss, PeepSo, Tutor LMS, Dokan, or WCFM) pre-configured. No signup, no email required. Sandbox is yours for 4 hours.
How much does Reign cost?
Reign Theme: $99/year or $249 lifetime for 1 site. Add-ons: $39/year or $79 lifetime each. Bundled kits (theme + add-on + Pro plugins): $129/year or $249 lifetime. Full pricing at /pricing/ with annual + lifetime side by side for every product.
Do I need to know code?
No. The Reign Demo Installer (free) imports a full demo site in one click. Or pick the done-for-you $699 setup package and the Wbcom team installs everything for you in 5 business days.
How is Reign different from BuddyBoss Theme?
BuddyBoss Theme only works with the BuddyBoss Platform plugin and is annual-only. Reign works with 3 community platforms (BuddyPress + BuddyBoss + PeepSo), offers both annual and one-time lifetime licenses, and ships 10 bundled kits. Read the full comparison at /alternatives/buddyboss/.
Can I migrate from Mighty / Circle / Skool / BuddyBoss?
Yes. Each platform has a documented migration walkthrough at /migrate-to-reign-from/. Member CSV export + content rebuild + Stripe billing migration. Typical 500-2000 member community migrates in 3-6 weeks.
Who is behind Reign?
Wbcom Designs - a product team building WordPress community sites since 2013. 20,000+ Reign theme installations across customers worldwide and 2,000+ communities we built as agency projects. Reign, BuddyX, and Jetonomy are our flagships. Visit wbcomdesigns.com to see the studio.
What do I need before installing Reign?
A WordPress site (any host - Bluehost, Cloudways, WP Engine, SiteGround all work). A domain. One community platform: BuddyPress (free WordPress plugin) is the most common starting point. Reign installs as a standard WordPress theme - upload the ZIP through Appearance → Themes, activate the license key. The free Reign Demo Installer add-on then imports a full demo site in one click.
