The theme is selectable on their user profile, from the “interface” tab.  
Where do your users try to enable it?

Can you check if you see or do not see the setting on your user page?

What @trash said, but perhaps you’re looking for [Hamburger Theme Selector](https://meta.discourse.org/t/hamburger-theme-selector/61210).

Yes the users can select it from the profile but not the the menu in the top side of the forum like instantly.
