<p>WP Minimize Admin Bar is a simple plugin that minimizes the WP Admin Bar (the bar at the top of the page that logged in users see). Instead of the typical WP Admin Bar that remains fixed at the top of the page, this plugin replaces it with a small, unobtrusive icon in the top left corner of your site. When the icon is clicked it reveals the full WP Admin Bar that you’re familiar with.</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 phrase 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 phrase 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>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 phrase</strong>: Append <code>?[SECRET PHRASE]</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 phrase is changed, access using the old secret phrase is revoked immediately. The secret phrase can be configured in the advanced plugin settings.</li>
</ol>
