Missing Holiday build/buy category

Before the last update or two, when you were in a holiday and clicked on buy/build, different options for holiday decorations and activities would be the default category.  What happened to that category?  Am I missing it?  I have to search all different categories before finding the holiday items.  Please put this back in.

    @KimZ1111You should be able to do a search using the word 'holiday' in the search bar to bring up the holiday items. Otherwise, the holiday folder only appears on the holiday when you click on the "show items" on the holiday popup. Reference Here.

    If the category is completely gone on the holiday, please open a bug report.

    I noticed this. On some of my households, when a holiday was coming up, I could hit F2 and purchase the Attic Stack decorations boxes from the holidays menu in case I forgot. Now, it doesn't happen and I have to look it up manually.

    Like @PoptartJuniper wrote it only appears if you click on the popup you get. Once you close build mode it is gone but you can still do a search for "Holiday" to see all items tagged with holiday.

    @jpkarlsenYep. I know this. i am well aware of the Sims 4 search feature. I just now submitted a bug report. I was unable to find where the bug submission form was until @PoptartJuniper replied to me with it. I may be a “novice” on this site but I’ve been playing Sims since the first Sims was popular and Sims 4 since the day it came out. Thanks for reiterating what another simmer posted though. 😘

    @jpkarlsenMy original post was regarding the holiday folder that used to be displayed in Build/buy mode DURING a holiday is no longer there. It’s a pain in the behind to hunt for the different items when I’m used to all related items were in that convenient folder. The items are not all tagged “holiday” so the search is varied and I’m lazy. 🙂
