I have not upgraded in quite a while (since last November) - I noticed that there are snowflakes now in this version. Is there any way to get rid of them?

The snowflakes are permanent until they're replaced with butterflies for spring.

While we appreciate the humor, it's unfounded unless it's in the CSS somewhere and I haven't found it.

https://github.com/mirror/dd-wrt/blob/master/src/router/httpd/visuals/pagehead.c

I did, however, contact the developer due to the page rendering in Trac vs. GitHub to see if there was an issue as to why it was still showing or showing randomly.

When it is snowing what is the date of the router?

I think should only show snow at the end of December/beginning of January

Pretty sure it happens before NTP sync. Would be nice if there were a condition in the function to wait until _after_ wanup and NTP sync to do the snow.

March 13 - the date of the flash. Two days later, and I think it may have stopped now. Not sure when it may have ended.

Found this thread while trying to remove the snowflakes — totally being a Scrooge during the Christmas season. This reply is too funny my chest is hurting 😂😂

the snowflakes are a bit odd but they don't bother nothing with me

Today's release should fix the oddball characters that aren't snowflakes.

Yes I agree. I was only trying to remove em because I was taking screenshots of my configs, so I can blog about them and seem smart to people. Then I realized it was as a non-issue if I took em fast enough. Very Happy
