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.

<h3></h3>
<p>The Google Fonts API is designed to limit the collection, storage, and use of end-user data to what is needed to serve fonts efficiently. […] Google Fonts logs records of the CSS and the font file requests, and access to this data is kept secure. […] We use data from Google’s web crawler to detect which websites use Google fonts.</p>

<p>In other words, when someone visits your website, Google will be able to access the IP address they used to access it. As a result of using Google Fonts, you implicitly accept their terms and conditions, and you must inform people visiting your site of this in accordance with the current GDPR law in Europe.</p>

YITH Maintenance Mode

This plugin locked me completely out of my wordpress site. Neither /wp-admin nor /admin let me log in again. All I got was "Page not found". Removed the plugin via FTP and I'm back in business.

Unacceptable!

Locked me completely out!

YITH Maintenance Mode gives you the ability to have a simple Maintenance Mode page while your website is under construction or closed for maintenance.
