4-8 weeks for typical 500-2000 member community
Migrate from Mighty Networks to Reign.
Why people migrate
Most Mighty customers migrate to cut the ongoing $33-$179/month cost, own the URL + email list, and integrate with their existing WordPress stack.
What you land on
Reign is the design layer at $99/year or $249 lifetime, and it is the only thing you have to buy. The plugins that rebuild your community here are ours: BuddyNext for members and groups, Learnomy for courses, Jetonomy for forums and Q&A, MediaVerse for member media. 11 of them install free, each with its own Pro plan for when one part of the community starts earning. No monthly platform fee replaces the one you are leaving.
What you keep + what you rebuild
Set expectations before you start.
Migrates cleanly
- Member list + email addresses (CSV export from Mighty admin).
- Member profile basics (name, bio, avatar URL).
- Public post archive (manual copy or scrape).
Requires rebuild
- Subscription billing (set up Stripe + MemberPress fresh).
- Course content (manual recreate in Learnomy, which installs free, or in LearnDash / LifterLMS / Tutor LMS).
- Group structure (recreate BuddyNext groups matching old Mighty spaces).
- Welcome email sequence (rebuild in FluentCRM / Mailchimp).
6 steps
The migration walkthrough.
Export member CSV from Mighty
Mighty admin > Members > Export. Gives email + name + signup date.
Set up Reign + the plugins on staging
Buy the theme, then install BuddyNext for the community and Learnomy for the courses. Both are free. On a third-party stack instead, the BuddyPress Community Bundle and the LearnMate kits are the packaged routes.
Recreate group/space structure
For each Mighty space, create a matching BuddyNext group with the same name and description.
Migrate billing to Stripe
Set up MemberPress with matching membership tiers. Use Stripe Customer Migration if you stay on Stripe.
Run dual-platform for 2 weeks
Announce migration. Existing members get invitation to set password on new site. Mighty stays live as fallback.
Cutover + DNS switch
Day of cutover: members migrate access. Mighty becomes read-only archive. Cancel Mighty after 30-day grace.
FAQ
Migration questions.
Can I keep my Stripe customers?
Yes. Use Stripe Customer Migration tool to move customers between Stripe accounts. Or if same account, just point MemberPress at existing Stripe.
What happens to course progress in Mighty?
Mighty does not export course progress as data. Members rejoin courses fresh in Learnomy, or in LearnDash if that is your LMS. Communicate this clearly before migration.
How do I avoid losing members?
Send the migration announcement 30 days in advance. Offer a small migration discount ($10 off or 1 month free). Make password reset 1-click on first login.
