Here is the pro version called “BP Auto activate Auto Login-redirect to profile on Signup“.  I Hope the name says everything, It is supposed to do

What It does

Good Question!

• Auto activate  user account instantly on sign up
• Stop The activation mail sent to user(there is no more activation mail  required, as the accounts are automatically activated)
• After activating the user account, This plugin logs them in automatically and redirects the user to their profile.

So basically, It provides a seamless experience for your users. Once your user click “Complete Signup”(what ever you call it on your registration page, Their account will be automatically activated, they will be logged in and redirected to their new profile, so all they see is your signup page and the next page is their own profile.

This plugin works perfectly in both the cases

• User registers for a user name only(i.e no blog at signup)
• User registers for username and blog both

Ohh yes,  Did I mention!, this is the unique plugin at the moment, and no other plugin exists for BuddyPress/WordPress mu/multisite which automatically logs in user on signup and redirects them to their profile(hehe advertisement gig! and our edge over others at this time ).

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.
