ThemeCycle publishes plain-English guides for people who build online courses, school and college websites, and training portals with WordPress. We cover the decisions that are hard to undo: which learning management system (LMS) plugin to build on, which theme works with it, what hosting a course site needs, and how to take payments.

Who’s behind ThemeCycle
ThemeCycle is written and edited by Anisur Rahman, who builds and runs WordPress content sites. The site is published by PPC Optimizer Pro LLC, a company registered in Wyoming, USA.
How we write our guides
- We compare tools on the job they have to do, not on the length of their feature lists: how courses are structured, how students pay and log in, how much admin work a setup creates, and what it costs over several years.
- We check vendors’ own documentation and pricing pages, and we update a guide when something important changes. Every guide shows when it was last updated.
- We say when something is a poor fit. Sometimes the right answer is a free plugin, or not WordPress at all.
- Where a guide is based on our own test install, we say so.
How ThemeCycle makes money
Some guides link to products through affiliate links. If you buy through one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Commissions never decide what we recommend, and we don’t sell placements, rankings or links. When a free option is the better choice, we say so.
About this domain
ThemeCycle.com was once home to a shop that sold education WordPress themes. That business has closed, and this site is not connected to it. We can’t provide downloads, licenses or support for its themes; our education themes guide covers maintained replacements.
