How do I set a default theme in multisite network

Have you tried enabling the theme from network admin? Visit /wp-admin/network/themes.php and “network enable” the themes you would like to allow access to.

You can set a default theme for new / existing sites on your network in wp-config.php Put this in your config file and change the theme name as desired.

define('WP_DEFAULT_THEME', 'classic');
