Setting up a website for associations – advice please
-
Hello, please can anyone advise on how to set up a website on WordPress for an association with a new member scheme and donate/ join us buttons? Are there templates available? Which ones might be suitable?
I have no coding knowledge.
Thanks

Thanks for these links.
Can these business website themes work with all plugins needed for setting up an association site with membership capabilities?
Can you also recommend plugins for a membership website?
Many thanks,

Good Morning Rosie –
Plugins are a feature supported on the self hosted version of WordPress. They aren’t something you’d be able to add to your WordPress.com site.
There are 2 versions of WordPress and what happens here at WordPress.com is a bit different from the self hosted version, which is more hands on. This guide outlines those differences: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
If you’re interested in going the self hosted route, I suggest taking a read over the Getting Started materials on the left of https://wordpress.org/support/
