How to Set Up Celebration Effects

Celebration Effects let you trigger a short on-screen animation when members hit key milestones across your courses, community, and checkout experience.

Getting started

To access Celebration Effects, go to Website Settings > General Settings and scroll down to the Celebrations section.

Enable the master Enable Celebrations toggle to activate the feature across your platform. This must be on for any individual celebrations to fire.

Enabling individual triggers

Once the master toggle is on, you can enable or disable each trigger individually. The available triggers are:

  • Course completed

  • First post published

  • First comment left

  • Purchase completed

Toggle each one on or off depending on which milestones you want to celebrate.

Choosing a celebration effect

Each trigger has its own effect selector. Click the dropdown beneath the trigger toggle to choose which animation plays for that milestone. The available effects are:

  • Confetti

  • Fireworks

  • Hearts

  • Stars

Each effect can be previewed.

Customising community messages

For community triggers (first post published and first comment left), you can customise the short message that appears alongside the celebration animation.

A default message is provided for each. To edit it, click into the message field beneath the effect selector and type your own message. Messages are limited to 80 characters.

You can personalise messages using the following variables:

  • {firstname} - displays the member's first name

Things to know

  • Each celebration fires once per member, ever, except for courses completed, which fire once per course per member

  • Purchase completed fires on the thank you page after a successful checkout

  • Celebrations auto-dismiss after a few seconds and never play sound

  • If post moderation is enabled on your community, the first post celebration will not fire, as the post is not published directly to the community
