One theme, the free BuddyNext community engine, and seven plugins, all themed to match. Built by the team behind BuddyPress code running on 100,000+ sites.
When you start a community, you usually shop for a forum plugin, an LMS, a job board, a directory, and a gamification tool. BuddyX Pro ships the free version of all seven, pre-configured to work together with the theme. The Pro version of each plugin is sold separately if you outgrow the free tier.
Free version of each plugin is bundled. Pro versions sold separately.
BuddyX Pro ships pre-configured with the free version of every plugin below. Each plugin keeps the BuddyX Pro design language so members never see a design seam. Upgrade an individual plugin to its Pro tier when, and only when, you outgrow the free feature set.

Login screens
A login screen worth signing in to.
The default WordPress login looks like 2010. BuddyX Pro replaces it with branded login, sign-up, and password-reset screens. Set your logo, brand colour, and background image in the Customizer, then pick from four layouts. Your members get a sign-in flow that feels like the rest of your site.
Branded login page
Split-screen welcome with your logo, colour, and background image. Members feel at home before they sign in.
Matching sign-up page
Registration carries the same brand treatment, so joining never feels like a different website.
On-brand password reset
Even the reset-password flow stays on brand, so members never bounce to a generic WordPress screen.
Dark mode, done right
Members who use dark mode stay longer.
BuddyX Pro ships a proper dark theme. Hand-tuned contrast on every component, not a CSS filter inversion. Your members get the option their phones already taught them to expect.

What you can build
One bundle. Eight kinds of community.
Tell BuddyX Pro what your community is for. It activates the right bundled plugins, configures the matching layouts, and gives you a live site for that niche.
Online community
Profiles, groups, activity feeds, member directories. The community engine your members open every morning.
Members sell their services to other members. You take a marketplace fee on every booking. Vendor profiles and service pages styled to match your community.
Click the button below. InstaWP boots a real WordPress site with BuddyX Pro pre-installed in 30 seconds. You get the full admin, the customizer, the community pages, and seeded sample content. The sandbox stays alive for 4 hours.
BuddyNext engine
BuddyX Pro sandbox
Boots a real WordPress site with BuddyX Pro on the free BuddyNext engine. Members, courses, jobs, and content already seeded. No third-party platform to buy. Yours for 4 hours.
Powered by InstaWP. The sandbox URL is shareable, so you can hand it to a teammate or paste it into a brief. The full demo site is in active rebuild and lands soon.

Every tier ships BuddyX Pro and all 7 bundled plugins. Pick how many sites you need. Pay yearly, or upgrade to lifetime if you plan to be in business for the long run.
30-day money-back guarantee · GPL licensed · Use on unlimited local + staging environments during your licence period · Lifetime licences pay back in about 2.5 years
Jetonomy, MediaVerse, WB Gamification, WP Career Board, WP Sell Services, Listora, Learnomy. Pre-configured to work together. Pro versions of each plugin are sold separately if you outgrow the free tier.

Updates included
Annual licences renew yearly for continued updates. Lifetime licences get updates as long as the product is in active development.
Common questions
Everything you need before you buy.
01Can I use BuddyX Pro on a client site?
Yes. Single Site, 5 Sites, and Unlimited tiers all allow client use. Pick the tier that matches the number of client sites you plan to maintain at one time. Your licence covers each site for the duration of your annual or lifetime term.
02What happens when my annual licence expires?
The theme keeps working. You stop receiving updates and email support. Renewing the licence resumes both. Lifetime tiers never expire.
03What exactly is bundled with BuddyX Pro?
You get the BuddyX Pro theme plus the free version of 7 Wbcom plugins pre-configured to work together: Jetonomy, MediaVerse, WB Gamification, WP Career Board, WP Sell Services, Listora, and Learnomy. The Pro versions of each plugin are sold separately if you outgrow the free tier on any of them.
04Is there a refund policy?
Yes. 30 days. If BuddyX Pro is not the right fit, request a refund within 30 days of purchase and we will process it. No question form to fill in.
05Will I get all future updates and new layouts?
Yes. During your licence period (annual) or for the life of the product (lifetime), every update and every new Pro layout is included. We add layouts every few releases.
06Can I install the bundled plugins on different sites?
The free versions of the bundled plugins are GPL and you can install them on any site, with or without a BuddyX Pro licence. Your BuddyX Pro licence covers the theme on the number of sites your tier allows, plus unlimited local and staging environments.
07Do you offer support?
Yes. Every Pro tier gets the same priority email support from the team that builds these products. No tiered queue, no outsourced first-line. Renewing customers and new buyers both get the same response window.
08Is the code GPL licensed?
Yes. BuddyX Pro and the bundled plugins are GPL. You can fork them, build child themes, ship modifications. The licence we sell covers updates and support, not the code itself.
09How does this compare to BuddyBoss Platform Pro?
BuddyBoss Platform charges around $228 per year for a theme alone. BuddyX Pro is a theme plus 7 plugin integrations, starting at $79 per year. We work with BuddyBoss Platform too if you prefer that stack, since BuddyX Pro supports both.
