<p>This minimalistic plugin allows administrators to activate maintenance mode with fully customizable HTML and CSS. The plugin allows you to unlock access to maintenance mode with a simple passcode/password. After entering the passcode correctly, the visitor will see the full version of the site without having to have a user account. The input password can be secured using Google reCaptcha.</p>
<h3>Key Features:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Customizable Maintenance Page:</strong> Set the page title and content using the built-in WordPress WYSIWYG editor. Easily add media from your website’s media library.</li>
<li><strong>Advanced Customization:</strong> Insert custom CSS styles, analytics codes, and additional scripts in various sections of the page.</li>
<li><strong>User Access Control:</strong> Unauthenticated visitors will see the maintenance mode page, while all logged-in users with the “Visitor” role or higher will have full access to the website.</li>
<li><strong>Enter using a simple password:</strong> Visitors can unlock the site using a simple password and see it without the maintenance mode page. No user account is required for this unlocking in the WordPress system. </li>
</ul>
<p>This plugin provides a simple yet powerful way to create a personalized maintenance mode page while maintaining full control over its design and functionality.</p>
<h3>External Services</h3>
<p>This plugin uses Google reCAPTCHA to enhance security and prevent automated bots from bypassing the maintenance mode restriction.</p>
<h3>What data is sent and when?</h3>
<p>When a user submits the unlock form, the plugin sends the following data to Google’s reCAPTCHA API:<br />
– The user’s reCAPTCHA response token.<br />
– The user’s IP address (sent automatically by Google’s API).<br />
– The action associated with the reCAPTCHA verification.</p>
<h3>Why is this data sent?</h3>
<p>The data is required for Google reCAPTCHA to assess the likelihood that the form submission is performed by a human user. The plugin uses this verification to help prevent automated access attempts.</p>
<h3>Where is the data sent?</h3>
<p>The data is transmitted to <strong>Google’s reCAPTCHA servers</strong> for verification.</p>

Speedx – Maintenance Mode

This minimalist plugin allows administrators to activate maintenance mode with fully customizable HTML and CSS.

<p><strong>Version 1.5.0 is a recommended security update for all existing users.</strong> It blocks JavaScript injection on the Under Construction page, hardens the bypass cookie (Secure/HttpOnly/SameSite), tightens IP-whitelist validation, and fixes silent breakage with WP-CLI, cron, and the REST API. The plugin’s behavior and settings are unchanged — existing setups upgrade in place. See the changelog for the full list.</p>
<p>Add a really simple Under Construction page to your website by enabling this plugin. Use IP whitelisting and a secret URL to grant access to selected users without logging in.</p>
<p>Go to the settings page in Settings > Really Simple Under Construction. Enable by checking the checkbox. The Under Construction page is only visible to visitors who are not logged in. You can optionally configure:</p>
<ol>
<li>The Under Construction page itself — paste any HTML (DOCTYPE, <style>, <body> etc. are supported, scripts are stripped).</li>
<li>A secret word that lets you bypass the page via a URL like <code>?yoursecret</code>. A cookie is then stored so the same browser keeps access.</li>
<li>The lifetime of that cookie, in days.</li>
<li>A list of IP addresses to whitelist for users and services that should always see the real site.</li>
</ol>


Really Simple Under Construction Page

Hide your site behind a really simple Under Construction page. Bypass with a secret-word URL or an IP whitelist for testing.
