Luminaire Tree Refresh!

Tree Builder v2 is Live! The tree builder has been completely rebuilt for Kumos! This isn't just a port, it's a ground-up rebuild that removes a decade of javascript dependencies (no more "clear your cache" nonsense) and finally makes building a tree on mobile actually work. If you had a tree on the legacy site, don't worry. It's already here waiting for you. The legacy site has been updated to point to the new image generation, which is significantly faster and properly cached. This is part of a bigger push to make Kumos feel more like home. Check out the full changelog for all the improvements we've made to themes, hovers, performance, and more. What's New & Where to Find It πŸŽ„ Tree Builder Drag and drop ornaments onto your tree, now with proper mobile support. Instructions are on the page, but it should be pretty intuitive. Build something beautiful, or build something chaotic. I'm not here to judge. ✨ All Ornaments Browse every ornament on the site, see which ones you've collected, and search for specific ones. If an ornament is in your vault, that'll show up here too. 🎁 Tree Gallery Set your tree to public and it'll appear in the gallery, plus show up in your user hover across Kumos. This is where the ✨ new gifting magic ✨ happens. You can browse public trees with a bunch of filter options, including one that surfaces trees that haven't received many gifts yet (perfect for spreading some Luminaire cheer to folks who might otherwise get overlooked). Click into someone's tree and you'll see which items from their wishlist you already own. No hunting through wishlists, no opening a million tabs. Just "oh hey, I have that" and click to send it. ⭐ Wishlist Matching (Gold Account) There's a tab in the gallery that searches across all public tree wishlists, matches them against your inventory, and suggests who you could donate to. This is Gold Account only because it's a pretty intensive query to run. I'm going to keep an eye on it! πŸ“œ Gifts Given Moved to live alongside the rest of the tree features. Now takes advantage of Kumos caching, so it actually loads properly. If there is anything else you'd like added to this page, let me know in the comments!

Happy decorating! πŸŽ„

very nice!!!

small thing: the link to a tree owner's profile goes to /user/ instead of /users/, and redirects to the "file not found" url of subeta.net/user/news.php

Those new features are lovely! Stupid question: how do I mass add ornaments from inventory? The link to legacy feature opens the news page.

The tree gallery feature and wishlist searching makes me so happy! I absolutely ADORE being able to do random gift giving for luminere, and I hope others use this to be as generous to strangers! This is a wonderful idea!

My tree skirt is layered in front of my gifts on kumos. And I cannot seem to scroll through my ornaments either.

I don't know if it's just me, but over on the legacy site the news post has paragraphs and headings, while over here it's one block of text...

I love the search feature for the ornaments! I also really like that they're organized by the type/style of ornament. But I still wish we could change the order the same way we can change layers in the wardrobe. If I want to move an ornament to the back when I have several under it, it's a pain having to click the arrow a bunch of times. That's always been one of my main issues with the trees before. And I wish newly added ornaments would go to the top of the list like they used to, instead of the bottom.

Also whenever I try to add a tree skirt, they all just end up being invisible.

Thank you! I could not decorate my tree on mobile. I had to borrow my son's computer to do it. Also his tree wouldn't load, but clearing the cache worked. Kumos is a bit intimidating and confusing to me. If there's a reason for the change, can someone point me to it. I was MIA for 10 years. 🫣

OK, playing around with the wishlist matching and really loving it! Is there a way to make it search only your vault and not your wardrobe?

December 3, 2025, 9:27 pm by Jigglypuff
User Avatar

this is so amazing and makes me soo excited about gifting. a couple suggestions:

  1. the wishlist filter should have a friends tab, or there should be a 'friend trees' tab!
  2. the WL category should probably be shown along the item- IK a lot of people have CW owned lists, or 'reference, ignore' categories, so could help avoid gifting items from those lists!

, I'm glad to see that the changes being made on Kumos are still very nicely playable on my old laptop. That seems like an accomplishment since the push is targeted towards mobile usage.

You're totally right! Today I moved the /explore page over on Kumos, so now links that have been migrated there show their correct version (including the mysterious melody + advent calendar!). I'm going to get better about making sure that there are links places -- and there are a lot more in the navigation now too!

I get 'oops something went wrong' after every thing I do to the tree however I think it's working anyway? Love the wishlist matching feature and look forward to playing with that :D

These features are all really cool, but there needs to be a better way to navigate to all of these new features on Kumos instead of having to come back to the news posts to find links. Not even just this but pretty much everything that's been migrated to Kumos is not very intuitive to find, unless I'm just super blind. Melody, fishing that was moved a while ago. Unless you have the direct link already, it's not clear where to find things.

We've encountered an unexpected error while processing your request. This could be because of an error on this page, or something broader. This is our generic "we don't have a more specific error to show you" page. It could really be anything, so please let us know in the forums. (Try to public in gallery )
