- Do I need a Reign add-on to use Jetonomy?
- No. Reign add-ons exist because third-party engines need styling the theme does not ship with. Jetonomy is ours, so the theme already knows its templates. Buy Reign, install the plugin, and the pages come out looking like the rest of the site.
- Is Jetonomy free?
- Yes. The free version gives you spaces, threaded discussions, Q&A with accepted answers, voting, reputation, and a moderation queue. It is a working plugin, not a trial. Pro adds private messaging, polls, email digests, auto-moderation, and analytics from $69 a year, and it is optional.
- What do I actually have to buy?
- The Reign theme, $99 a year or $249 once for a single site. That is the only required purchase in this pairing. Jetonomy installs free on top of it, and its Pro plan is a separate decision you can make later or never.
- Can I use bbPress instead?
- Yes. bbPress, Discourse and Circle are a common way to do this, and we are not going to pretend otherwise. What you get by starting with Jetonomy is one team behind the theme and the plugin, so the design and the feature are never two vendors pointing at each other.
- I already run BuddyPress or BuddyBoss. Does this still work?
- Reign styles that stack too, and always has. Keep the engine you know. The BuddyPress Community Bundle collects our Pro community plugins for it into one licence, from $249 a year or $699 lifetime.
