Occasionally you will have a specific type of theme in mind for a project and searching can become a chore. Trying to sort through the masses to find the look and functionality that you require. Whilst working on building a WordPress membership site using the Wishlist Member Plugin I set out to look for a theme up to the role. Of course any theme would work but I didn’t just want any theme. Here’s the top five that I found that I would be happy to use with a membership site…
The Gazette Edition (Magazine Style)
Gazette Edition by WooThemes
Neoclassical (3 Column Theme)
Neoclassical Theme Site
Metro (Magazine Style 2/3 Colum)
Metro Theme Site by StudioPress
Mimbo Pro (Magazine Style)
Mimbo Pro Theme Site
Gotham News (Magazine Style)
Gotham News by WooThemes
These are all great looking and effective themes that could easily be used alongside a WordPress membership site plugin. You may be able to notice I have a slight preference for the magazine style themes as they allow for a lot more eye catching content to attract and retain your members. I won’t tell you which one I went with, partially because I don’t want to sway your choice. I will say however that I’ve either seen or used all of these themes in real websites and would be happy to use any one on a membership site project.
