Snow effect

    Will there be that fab ‘Snow Effect’ this year???

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  • Holiday Snow has been removed from Jetpack and WordPress.com. Its removal will help us make Jetpack a more focused and robust product for small businesses.

    If you miss having snowfall across your site there are stand-alone plugins available here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/falling-snow/

    Plugins can be added to WordPress.com sites with the Business Plan.

  • Just to clarify a bit….

    Liz’s post above is accurate as far as the reasoning behind the removal from Jetpack. However, for WordPress.com sites the reason is simply that our developers have been extremely busy with a number of large projects the past few months and we were unable to get the falling snow options set up for WordPress.com sites this year.

    I will make sure that the team knows that some folks really do miss the feature and perhaps it can return in the future.

    As Liz also notes, if you have a WordPress.com Business plan (or a WordPress site hosted with another webhost), there are falling snow plugins that you can use to replicate the effect. But I can also understand that might not seem like the most reasonable solution for someone who just has a basic WordPress.com site and doesn’t have any interest in upgrading to a Business plan. But we thought it was important to at least mention the option.
