Our teams are unavailable on certain public holidays (e.g. August 15th) and cannot respond to chat messages on those days.

We would like the ability to schedule exceptional chat closure days or hours, with an automatic message displayed (e.g. “Our team will be back tomorrow”).

Instead of having to manually adjust our regular office hours during those weeks, it would be helpful to have a feature that allows us to set exceptional closure dates, with a simple "open/closed" toggle for the chat on those specific days.

Such a feature would be great on public holidays such as Christmas.

It’s a considerable missing feature in our opinion, and such a common feature in other software we use such as the phones, to be able to set Opening Hours exceptions in advance, temporarily.

Instead, we currently have to alter our Default Schedule, and during the holidays sign into to work to amend it again for New Year’s week,  and then put it all back in 2026.

Make it make sense please.
