 * Hi All,
    I have a blog [http://museumplanner.org/](http://museumplanner.org/)
   and would like to create a subscription membership database within the blog. 
   The layout I have in mind is very similar to
 * [http://www.yourguides.net/theme-parks/vending-bulk-capsules-amp-novelty/telescopes-coin-operated/companies](http://www.yourguides.net/theme-parks/vending-bulk-capsules-amp-novelty/telescopes-coin-operated/companies).
 * I have two questions:
    1. Was the above site built using WordPress? (or can something
   similar be built in WordPress?) What theme or software was used? 2. Can you suggest
   a plugin for the membership subscription?
 * Thanks! Mark

 * Cant really help with question 1..sorry…but for a membership site, from what 
   Ive seen in my somewhat limited time using wordpress..I suggest s2Member plugin.
   Its a little complicated in setup, and you may very well need to balance other
   plugins with it depending on what you ultimately allow your members to do on 
   your site..but s2Member right out of the box is IMHO probably the most comprehensive
   membership plugin for WP available and is actively being improved.

 * To answer your first question, that site was not built using WordPress.

 * Is there a similar WordPress theme / database as:
 * [http://www.yourguides.net/theme-parks/vending-bulk-capsules-amp-novelty/telescopes-coin-operated/companies](http://www.yourguides.net/theme-parks/vending-bulk-capsules-amp-novelty/telescopes-coin-operated/companies)
 * for WordPress?
 * Thanks! Mark

 * Hi Mark..not a problem, happy to help/share my opinion.
    I cant say if there 
   is or isnt a WP theme to resemble the site in question, but you might look through
   the [THEMES available here](http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/) and Im sure 
   you can find something close.
 * Also just a suggestion, but you might want to think more in terms of the membership
   or theme itself rather than “database” as the latter kind of distorts what you
   seem to be asking about. Yes, data from your plugins and themes can be (and usually
   is) stored within your database, but thats about as close to being relative as
   they get. Asking about a database brings forth a whole different issue and may
   not get you the response you need. 🙂
