Coming Soon Express

Coming Soon Express is the fastest way to get a ‘Coming Soon’ page launched on your website in two simple steps:

1. Install the plugin.
2. Customize it with the built-in WP Customizer.

Voila! Your landing page is up and running in 10 minutes or less.

See a live preview while you edit — no more switching between tabs to see how your updates appear on the site!

Your visitors will see the ‘Coming Soon’ page, while “logged-in” users are able to view and work on the website seamlessly behind the scenes.

This section describes how to install the plugin and get it working.

1. Backup your site before installing a new plugin.
2. Upload the plugin files to the /wp-content/plugins/coming-soon-express/ directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
3. Activate the plugin.
4. Go to Appearance > Customize. You will see a new Menu at the top for “Coming Soon Express”.
5. Go to “Main Settings” and turn on the option for “Enable Functionality”. Also turn on the option for “Preview In Customizer” to see your changes in the Customizer preview window.
6. Go through the other Coming Soon Express sections to customize your Coming Soon landing page. Change the background image and text content easily.
7. To add a Contact or Opt-In Form to your coming soon page, you must first download your preferred Forms plugin for WordPress. We have developed Coming Soon Express to be compatible with Ninja Forms.
