What WordPress community stack are you running in 2026

Mike Roberts Mike Roberts 10 months ago

Curious what people's current WordPress community stacks look like heading into 2026. Sharing mine to kick it off:

  • Forums: Jetonomy Pro (replacing bbPress)
  • Social: BuddyPress + BuddyX Pro theme
  • LMS: LearnDash
  • Docs: KnowX theme on a subdomain
  • Hosting: Cloudways managed, Cloudflare in front

What about yours? And what has been the biggest pain point?

Pretty similar here. Jetonomy Pro for forums, BuddyX for the community front, LearnDash for courses. Biggest pain point continues to be email deliverability — running Amazon SES via the WP Offload plugin and it is fine but setup was fiddly. Performance-wise, Redis object cache plus query monitor kept us honest. Thanks for kicking this thread off.
