Festivello

Festivello puts your website in holiday mode without touching your theme. Pick a holiday, switch it on, and your site gets a temporary seasonal look: a colour overlay across the header, body, footer and font, floating icons drifting over the page, an animated background, and an optional banner message above the header. Switch it off and everything returns to your theme's own styling instantly. Your theme files are never modified. Nine holidays are included and ready to use:

• Christmas
• Halloween
• Valentine's Day
• New Year
• Easter
• Thanksgiving
• Canada Day
• Fourth of July
• Black Friday

Every one of them is fully editable. Change the dates, the colours, the icons, the animation and the banner text on any holiday, as often as you like. There is no limit on how many holidays you use across the year, no trial period, and no expiry. Features

• Nine preset holidays, all editable
• Temporary colour overlay for header, body, footer and font
• Up to five floating icons per holiday, from an emoji library or raster images selected from your Media Library
• Five background animations: falling snow, floating hearts, falling leaves, confetti, and a fireworks glow
• Low, medium and high animation intensity
• Optional banner message pinned above your header
• Optional automatic scheduling by date range, including ranges that wrap past December 31
• One holiday runs at a time, so seasons never collide
• Respects prefers-reduced-motion: animations are skipped for visitors who ask for reduced motion

Built to stay fast Holiday CSS and JavaScript load only while a holiday is actually active. Nothing is enqueued on your site the rest of the year. Privacy Festivello does not collect any data, does not phone home, and does not contact any external server. Everything it does happens on your own site. Festivello Pro Everything described above is part of this free plugin, with no limits, no quotas and no expiry, and it stays that way. Festivello Pro is a separate add-on, available from https://licensehub.bragdeal.cloud/wp-festivello/, for people who want holidays of their own rather than the nine built in here. It adds:

• Unlimited custom holidays of your own
• Your own name, start date and end date for each one
• Your own header, body, footer and font colours per holiday
• Your own Media Library images, or emoji from the library
• Any of the five background animations, at any intensity
• Add-on updates and new Pro features delivered through your dashboard
• Direct email support from the people who build the plugin
• And many more

It is useful for anniversaries, product launches, sales and seasonal campaigns that are specific to your business. Pro is an add-on: this plugin stays installed and active, and everything you have already set up keeps working exactly as it does now.

1.1.7

• Festivello Pro is now described by what it adds, rather than by anything this plugin will not do.

1.1.6

• Switching a second holiday on now says that the first one was switched off.
• A dismissible prompt asks for a WordPress.org review after a day of use. It appears on Festivello's own screen only, and every button settles it for good or for a week.
• The admin menu icon is now a Christmas hat.

1.1.5

• Added the Festivello logo: the plugin now has its own artwork in the WordPress.org plugin directory, its own admin menu icon in place of the generic one, and the mark in its settings header.

1.1.4

• Legacy settings migrated from pre-1.1.2 development builds are now validated with the same routine the settings form uses, so colours, dates and banner text are sanitized rather than copied verbatim.
• Documented the nonce that protects the settings form for automated security scanning.
• Added translator comments to every string containing a placeholder.
• The admin script now depends on the media modal it actually uses instead of jQuery.
• Corrected the plugin and product website links.

1.1.3

• Made checkbox and icon-array request sanitization explicit for WordPress.org automated security scanning.
• No public API changes; fully compatible with the Festivello 1.1.2 API.

1.1.2

• Replaced the short WPF public prefix with the unique Festivello prefix across PHP APIs, hooks, options, scripts and styles.
• Tightened admin request handling so only expected form fields are read and sanitized.
• Media icons now store validated Media Library attachment references instead of arbitrary image URLs.
• Raster image validation rejects remote URLs and SVG payloads.
• Filtered banner output now passes through a strict wp_kses() allowlist.
• Updated the Pro extension points to the new Festivello API names.
• Added a safe one-time migration for settings created by pre-1.1.2 development builds.

1.1.1

• Updated the plugin name and slug for WordPress.org directory compliance.
• Improved admin request validation and input sanitization.

1.1.0

• The plugin header now shows which edition is running.
• Removed the Performance tab: it only restated behaviour that is always on.

1.0.0

• Initial release.
