Maintenance Mode Basics

Hi,

When you activiate this plugin you won’t be able to view your website unless you login as an admin. If you go to https://www.yourdomain.com/wp-admin and login you should be able to view your website as normal.

Very useful plugin use it all the time.

Any problems let me know.

Problems.

I did just that but I still get the maintenance page only.

Thinking maybe I need to edit the settings php not sure.

Thanks for prompt reply

Hi,

Can you see the login page at all?

Regards
Pete

I get the very same maintenance page

Hi,

Can you get to /wp-login.php at all or does it do the same thing?

Regards
Pete

Same thing unfortunately.

Maybe you can see something I can’t.

Only thing left is to clear my cache…

Will need to close all these windows.

IE and Safari is the same thing though

Hi,

Sorry got my wires crossed, this isn’t the same plugin as I use. Not quite sure how this one works. It seems strange because I get 404 error pages with your design (try /wp-login) but can’t get to a login page at all as you well know.

I would reccommend using this plugin as it works a treat for me [https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/maintenance-mode/].

Think I heard of it just that I thought I would use the php scripts built in to the program for optimal results but I see that don’t work too good either.

v 2.8.3 seems to have other issues.

Thanks though.

oops! plug in won’t work with v 2.8.3

My usual saga. Lots of drawbacks with wordpress.
