Maintenance


It was great in the past. But latest versions, besides being basically a big ad, it doesn't even work. There's the toggle switch and it does nothing!


Don't bother download it

Great looking maintenance, coming soon & under construction pages. Put your site under maintenance in minutes.

<p><strong>Build Mode</strong> lets you put your WordPress site into <strong>maintenance mode</strong> or display a <strong>coming‑soon page</strong> / <strong>under‑construction page</strong> with one click. Instead of a generic message, you can select and display any page you’ve built — with the Block Editor, Classic Editor, or a page builder. Visitors will see your chosen <strong>maintenance or coming‑soon page</strong>, styled using your theme’s CSS and JS, while logged‑in administrators continue working behind the scenes.</p>
<p>When Build Mode is active, only the content area of your chosen maintenance page is displayed. The header, footer and navigation are automatically removed.</p>
<h3>Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Enable or disable Build Mode from the <strong>Admin Bar</strong></li>
<li>Choose any page as your custom <strong>maintenance</strong>, <strong>coming‑soon</strong> or <strong>under‑construction</strong> screen</li>
<li>Logged‑in admins bypass maintenance mode automatically</li>
<li>Sends correct <strong>503</strong> and <strong>Retry‑After</strong> headers (SEO‑friendly)</li>
<li>Lightweight and secure, built with WordPress best practices</li>
<li>Compatible with classic and block themes</li>
<li>Translation‑ready</li>
</ul>
<h3>Use cases</h3>
<ul>
<li>Show a custom <strong>under‑maintenance</strong> or <strong>coming‑soon</strong> screen while you redesign or update your site</li>
<li>Let search engines know your downtime is temporary with proper HTTP headers</li>
<li>Keep working on your site privately without showing a broken layout to visitors</li>
</ul>
