Hi - 

Newbie here and I'm trying to wrap my head around holidays.  
I found this blog: https://www.ownerrez.com/blog/new-model-for-holiday-charges in the forum, but can't seem to find where the settings are. 

I have set up season rates and set all of the holiday settings for if it's weekend, etc. but I can't seem to find where based on the holidays I can set an increased rate either by % or flat amount.

It seems that most folks are just creating a season for the specific holiday period - is that the preferred way and if so, why have the holidays functionality.

Am I missing something obvious.

Thanks in advance

Yes, that's the preferred way.

The holidays functionality, as it exists, is somewhat of a leftover artifact from the early days of OwnerRez, that turned out to not really accomplish what it was originally intended to do.

Why don't we get rid of it then?  Well, it still has some legitimate use - it can highlight the holidays on your calendar, which serves a useful purpose much as it does on your calendar.
