<p>This plugin uses a combination of WordPress hooks, CSS (when possible), and Javascript (last resort) to removed specified admin interface elements. These elements may be considered by some to be superfluous interface elements that are undesired for one reason or another, so this plugin aids in their visual removal.</p>
<p>Each admin interface element is individually selected for removal. The elements that can be removed are:</p>
<ul>
<li>The header WordPress logo (bear in mind this functions as a menu) in the admin bar</li>
<li>The home icon next to your site’s name in the admin bar</li>
<li>The “Howdy,” greeting before your username in the admin bar</li>
<li>Your username link to your profile in the admin bar</li>
<li>Your avatar in the admin bar</li>
<li>The Dashboard menu link in the sidebar</li>
<li>The contextual “Help” link</li>
<li>The footer links</li>
<li>The WordPress version in the footer</li>
</ul>
<p>(There is an associated screenshot which points out these different sections.)</p>
<p>Note: These settings are global and will affect all users who are able to visit the admin pages.</p>

<p>The Minimal Maintenance Mode plugin is a simple and lightweight solution to enable a maintenance mode on your WordPress website. The plugin is free, fast, and can be deployed within minutes.<br />
When the maintenance mode is active, the plugin displays a customizable message for all not-logged-in users.<br />
It is possible to set a custom secret word that users can append to the website URL to get access, even if they are not logged in.</p>
<h3>Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Enable a maintenance mode to restrict access to your website.</li>
<li>Customize the maintenance mode message and heading.</li>
<li>Automatic bypass for logged-in users and administrators.</li>
<li>Option to set a secret word to bypass maintenance mode via URL parameter.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Configuration and usage</h3>
<p>To enable maintenance mode and set the message displayed during maintenance, follow these steps:</p>
<ol>
<li>Go to the WordPress admin menu and click on ‘Maintenance Mode’.</li>
<li>Customize the maintenance mode heading and message.</li>
<li>(Optional) Pick a secret word to let not-logged-in users bypass the maintenance mode.</li>
<li>Save the settings and activate the maintenance mode by pressing ‘Save and activate’.</li>
</ol>
<h3>Bypassing maintenance mode</h3>
<p>If you need to access your website during maintenance mode, you can use the following methods:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>For administrators and logged-in users</strong>: logged-in users can access the website normally. Also, the <code>/wp-admin/</code> pages will not be blocked.</li>
<li><strong>Using the secret word</strong>: Append <code>?[SECRET WORD]</code> to any URL to bypass the maintenance mode for a week. A functional cookie is placed on the user’s machine to make this work. If the secret word is changed, access using the old secret word is revoked immediately. The secret word can be configured in the advanced plugin settings.</li>
</ol>
<h3>Privacy notices</h3>
<p>This plugin does not:</p>
<ul>
<li>track users;</li>
<li>write any user personal data to the database;</li>
<li>send any data to external servers.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Support</h3>

<h3>Contributing</h3>
<p>This plugin is deliberately simple. It is made as a foolproof, quick, and privacy-friendly way for site administrators to activate a maintenance mode. This plugin will not be extended with loads of features, such as templates and styling options; there are plenty of other maintenance plugins to pick that do offer these options. If you nevertheless think that you can contribute to the plugin (e.g. by submitting a bug fix), please open a pull request.</p>
