Honors WP MembershipNot enough Reddit discussion yet.
Reddit mentions of LifterLMS are thin: a 2019 sysadmin thread lists it as one WordPress LMS option for a 500-user organisation, and a 2026 post reports that Elementor editing did not work on course pages until course and lesson options were enabled in Elementor settings.
They're evenly matched on the points we can measure. Pick by features and budget.
Honors WP Membership starts at $99.99/year and LifterLMS starts at $199/year.
Both are on our Black Friday tracker. We'll add each discount the moment it goes live.
