# Festive floor themes Show optional seasonal floor decorations and avatar accessories around supported celebrations. *Release 3.3 · admin, operator* **Settings › Floor › Floor Settings** ## What it is **Festive Themes** adds seasonal decorations to the floor and can make themed avatar accessories available. Sales can also use seasonal celebration effects. These are display effects; they do not change purchases or conversation status. ## Who uses it and why - Operators choose whether to see festive decoration in their own floor view. - Administrators with the **Settings** and **Manager** roles choose and save website defaults and which supported seasons are enabled. ## Where to find it Open **Settings › Floor › Floor Settings** and find **Festive Themes**. The settings icon beside the website switch opens the individual seasonal choices. ## How it works INSIDE checks the current date and the supported regional rules to choose seasonal decoration. Depending on the season, you may see a festive image, hats, costumes or sales effects. The individual theme switches allow a season; they do not activate it immediately. Seasonal accessories appear only when the corresponding theme is active. Your personal **Festive Themes** choice applies to your floor presentation. The website choice supplies the shared default, and the website's individual seasonal choices determine which of those themes are allowed. ## Configure it To change your own view, change your personal **Festive Themes** switch in **Floor Settings** and save. To change website defaults, use an account with both the **Settings** and **Manager** roles. Set the website **Festive Themes** switch, open its settings icon and choose the seasons to allow. The choices are **Xmas**, **Chinese New Year**, **Valentine's Day**, **Halloween**, **St Patrick's Day**, **Easter**, **Olympics** and **New Years**. Save the floor settings after making your changes. Use your sound settings separately if you want to change audible sale alerts. ### Settings | Setting | Where | Applies to | Default | Who can change it | What it does | |---|---|---|---|---|---| | Festive Themes | Settings › Floor › Floor Settings | website | On | Settings role, Manager role, Chat role, Top Stats role | Set the website's default use of seasonal floor decorations. | | Festive Themes | Settings › Floor › Floor Settings | operator | Website default when no personal floor preferences are saved; Off if personal floor preferences omit this choice | Settings role, Manager role, Chat role, Top Stats role | Override the festive presentation for your own floor view. | | Xmas | Settings › Floor › Floor Settings | website | On | Settings role, Manager role, Chat role, Top Stats role | Allow the Christmas theme during its active season. | | Chinese New Year | Settings › Floor › Floor Settings | website | On | Settings role, Manager role, Chat role, Top Stats role | Allow the Chinese New Year theme during its active season. | | Valentine's Day | Settings › Floor › Floor Settings | website | On | Settings role, Manager role, Chat role, Top Stats role | Allow the Valentine's Day theme during its active season. | | Halloween | Settings › Floor › Floor Settings | website | On | Settings role, Manager role, Chat role, Top Stats role | Allow the Halloween theme during its active season. | | St Patrick's Day | Settings › Floor › Floor Settings | website | On | Settings role, Manager role, Chat role, Top Stats role | Allow the St Patrick's Day theme during its active season. | | Easter | Settings › Floor › Floor Settings | website | On | Settings role, Manager role, Chat role, Top Stats role | Allow the Easter theme during its active season. | | Olympics | Settings › Floor › Floor Settings | website | On | Settings role, Manager role, Chat role, Top Stats role | Allow the Olympics theme during the dates supported by this release. | | New Years | Settings › Floor › Floor Settings | website | On | Settings role, Manager role, Chat role, Top Stats role | Allow the New Year theme during its active season. | ### Permissions | Permission | Lets you | |---|---| | Settings | Edit website festive controls in Floor Settings, subject to view-only restrictions. | | Manager | Save website floor defaults; the Settings role is also required to edit the website festive switches. | ## Limits and good to know - Seasonal choices start enabled when no individual seasonal configuration is saved. - Dates and regional applicability are supplied by INSIDE.

The switch permits the theme during its supported season. It does not force that season to start. ### Why can colleagues see decorations that I cannot? Check your personal **Festive Themes** choice. Operators can have different floor preferences. ### Why is a seasonal hat missing from My Look? Seasonal accessories depend on the active theme. They are not all available throughout the year. ### Why is the login page still decorated? Login artwork is separate from the floor's **Festive Themes** preference. ### Can I change a celebration's start and end dates? The festive settings do not provide date fields.
