**Theme**: Mahara comes with a number of themes that you can use. Choose one from the drop-down menu to make it the default theme for your site. If you have :ref:`institutions <site_admin_institutions>` set up, they can choose their own theme.

18.

**Show homepage information**: If enabled, information about Mahara and how it is used is displayed on the Mahara homepage for logged-out and the dashboard for logged-in users. Logged-in users can disable this. See also :ref:`Quick links <dashboard_quick_links>`.

19.

**Send weekly updates?**: If checked, your site send weekly updates to `mahara.org <http://mahara.org>`_ with some statistics about your site. See also :ref:`Register your Mahara site <mahara_registration>`.

22.

**Users can choose page themes**: If this setting is enabled, users can select a theme for their portfolio page. The page is displayed with this theme to other users. Thus, an institution or site theme can be overwritten.

24.

**Users can hide real names**: If checked, users who have set a :ref:`display name <about_me>` may choose to be searchable only by their display name, and will not be found in searches for their real name. In the site administration section of the site, users are always searchable by their real names. An administrator (site and institution) always sees the display name, first and last name and username.

25.

**Search usernames**: If checked, usernames can be searched on as part of "Search Users" on the :ref:`dashboard <dashboard>` and via :ref:`Find friends <find_friends>`.

26.

**Anonymous comments**: If checked, logged-out users / users without a login can leave comments on public pages or pages they can access via secret URL.

32.

**Who can create groups**: You decide whether administrators, administrators and staff or everyone can create groups. The default setting is the most permissive "everyone" because Mahara is user-centered and gives the individual users a great deal of control over what they want to do. If you choose to limit the group creation to administrators (and staff), these need to be contacted to set up groups. There is no internal group request system.

33.

**Who can create public groups**: Choose whether everyone or only administrators can create :ref:`public groups <public_group>`. These are groups for which you do not need to be a member of the group or even have a login to Mahara to view the group homepage, member listing and discussion forums.
