i haven\’t used it yet, but it\’s a nice idea!
thanks for it… someone will use your plugin, it\’s usefull

adeux!

its just the plugin i was looking 4 its very good plugin thankyou so much u can see it here live http://www.apna-desi.com

Hi,
thanks for the plugin! It really works.
I’d though like to have the ability to see
the content as an admin, which I can’t.
I also don’t understand how I can make
my own splash page…

@John
I’ll take note of that. Next release, admin will be able to see the website.

I’ll post a tutorial on making your own splash page when I’m free

Cool… this is an interesting plugin and I hv been looking for this such that I do not need to tear down my blog when I am making changes to it… ;-)

It would be interesting to be able to set an estimated offline duration, and the ticker would display the estimated remaining offline time, instead of the time elapsed since the site has been offline.

I’ll download it but only if you find a way to allow the admin section, and with the estimated remaining offline time. That will be the perfect plugin for maintenance !

Its impossible to estimate how much time everyone need to complete their maintenance. However, they plugin will show how long you’ve taken your blog down

I’ve got my wordpress blog configured so that the homepage is the siteroot (using .htaccess to redirect root references down to the wordpress directory, as explained in the wordpress docs). And your offline mode plugin doesn’t tell visitors to the site root that I’m down; it only gives me the offline splash page (the default one is a very nice design, by the way) when I try to go below the blog homepage.

Oh, and about the timer — what I\’d like is to specify in configuration when I think I\’ll be done, and have that (or a countdown to that) displayed.

I need help with this plugin.

I cannot edit my posts when the offline mode is activated!

Please assist.
Reinhardt

I’ll release new updates soon to fix the problem regarding admin unable to view the blog.

Hey Zorex

Do you know when this release will be out?
I’m kinda in a bind here, all I need to do is edit posts but it wont allow me??

Regards,
Reinhardt

Sorry for being dumb but that\’s what is. The instructions say, \"Login to your admin CP and enable \"OfflineMode\" through plugin tab\" – but literal-minded me goes to the Dashboard (is that what you mean by admin CP? If not, where is the admin CP?), then to the PlugIn page and see no words such as \"enable\" or any tab labeled \"enable.\" So I started guessing.

I went to the dashboard and activated the plugin by clicking on Activate. So if that what the instructions meant, that\’s what I did. But when I returned to the home page, there is no splash page. The site is visible.

What is it I am supposed to be doing that I\’m am not?

@Reinhardt: I’ll try to release as soon as I got time. For now, you can edit your post through the admin page.

@JoeHark: You’ve just completed the 1st step. After enable the plugin, go to ’settings’ where you will see new tab call ‘OfflineMode Settings’. To put your website/blog in maintenance mode, just check the enable OfflineMode checkbox.

I happened upon this site while following the links from another site. Your site is wonderful and i bookmarked it. Thank your for the hard work you must have put in to create this wonderful facility. Keep up the excellent work

Thnx a lot ;D

Going to try this on my blog tonight. Thanks

nice idea, thanks for it.

The ideea is great. You can also ad something like a trail in % which shows how much is elapsed or how much time remains until next update. Another ideea would be to make it as the fuel gauge from a car.

Thanks you !!!!!!!!!! great idea

Wow, I am so excited for the new plugin. It’ll be great.

It is great. Keep up the good work. George

I just used your plugin on my site and now it is stuck in Under Construction mode. I deactivated and deleted the file but I’m still seeing the splash page. Can you please help?

There isn’t any problem with it. You see the splash page simply because your browser cache the page. Try to press CTRL + F5 to refresh your page and everything should be ok

I really apriciate you about your working and sharing

thanks from evden eve Nakliyat

have to try it first!

wordpress is the most use cms and it has lots of plugins like yours

This is a just plain useful plugin. Kudos and thanks, please keep working on good stuff like this.

The estimated remaining offline time. That will be the perfect plugin for maintenance !

Great Article Thank You!

Yes, I agree that a great add-on.

Great Plugin – it would be even better if you can edit and preview while in offline mode – as many of my clients want to see changes to the site as it is being developed. I can build on localhost but then the changes i need to make to put it online for preview make for a lot of extra work. Any idea when you may be adding the functionality for editing? Cheers for the plugin anyway :) .

I did try to add a logo by adding this div in : <div><img src=\"data: http://www.convey2day.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/decision2day-logo.jpg\"></div> but it didnt work with or without the data bit – will you be putting instructions up for things like this?

Yea… I will after I release a new version for it. Meanwhile, anyone is welcome to post any guide in making their own splash page.

Hi Zorex

I was just wondering.
I have the offline plugin which I used last year.
I was wondering if the new version supports the offline view only for admin?

I mean…I as admin wants to see the changes on my site, but I don’t want other visitors to see it.

I know you mentioned it will be available in the new one. It’s been like year now so I was just popping in to see if it’s available yet?

Regards
Ryan

Yea, I did mention about it.. However I dun have time to write the new version yet. So currently the project is on halt. Sorry…

Hi,

I just downloaded your plugin, it works great. I have seen that many people commented about the missing \\&quot;feature\\&quot; to let admins see the blog and others not.

To get this functionality add the following line first in the function displaySplash() in the file OfflineMode.php:
if (current_user_can(\\\’edit_users\\\’)) return;
