Add style class hook to wp-activate.php screen so default themes can style them better

Sadly, there is no container CSS class, like we have on wp-signup.php (.mu_register). Not sure if it's fixable in theme.
Otherwise we should add a wrapper on wp-activate.php, see attached patch as an example.

added 2013 styles

added styles for the class ms-activate-container to match that of wp-signup.php, lookin' good.

Can we move forward with this?

I think adding a wrapper on wp-activate.php to make it consistent with wp-signup.php would make this a ton easier.

.1 patch also includes Twenty Thirteen styles.

See also #25479 for Twenty Fourteen styles.

ms-activate-container and ms-signup-container were just my first idea. Not sure if they are clear enough, since there is currently no class with the prefix ms-. Should it be just with wp- like wp-signup and wp-activate? And should we also add *one* class for both types?

One class would be ideal, but then you break back compat. I think a "wp-" prefix would be better than "ms-".

+1 for wp- prefixed. 25478.diff​ adds wp-activate-container and wp-signup-container to each respectively.

I was wondering if it would make more sense to use a body class, as the #content container is already there, it just needs additional targeting. I have no major opinion either way, but it would be nice to see some styles on these.

Bumping from 3.8 since there hasn't been much going on here in past two weeks.

[lkraav]

+1 for body class

[jeremyfelt]

Moving to 3.9 for discussion. This seems like something we're close on.

Using body classes seems to make more sense here. This allows other elements on the page to be targeted based on the page load rather than relying on the container.

25478.2.diff filters body_class for both signup and activation.

[jeremyfelt]

We can probably push this off until we better clarify what's needed. For the time being, a body class can be added via filter on the signup_header action by a theme or plugin if necessary.

Let's match the container structure that exists in wp-signup.php already and use the wp-signup-container and wp-activate-container classes to differentiate.

Note that #content is now #signup-content in each after #33843.

[jeremyfelt]

In 34814:

MS: Align HTML structure in wp-signup.php and wp-activate.php.

Assigns the wp-activate-container and wp-signup-container to the container inside #signup-container on each. This container already existed in wp-signup.php and is new in wp-activate.php.

Props ocean90.
Fixes #25478.
