Customization

To make it blend correctly with your theme you can do some css styling. I have not auto included the css, as It gives you independence to make it look as you want.

If you want a simple, easy looking, as shown in the above screenshot, here is the css for that. Include it in your theme css.

ul#allowed-themes{overflow:auto;height:350px;}
#allowed-themes li{list-style-type:none;width:185px;margin:10px;float:left;display:inline;}
#allowed-themes li .theme-meta input{float:left;}
#allowed-themes li .theme-meta label{display:inline;}
#allowed-themes li .theme-meta {border:1px solid #ccc;}
#allowed-themes li .theme-meta .creator{padding:5px;}
.theme-lists{clear:left;}

Faq

Do I need to call any function in my registration page

As long as you are sticking with standard actions, you don’t need to call anything manually.

In case, if the theme list is not shown at registration page, please check , do you have the action “bp_after_blog_details_fields” called in your theme.
