Hello, Our client http://www.vibedration.com is an Ecommerce site and we are going to migrate the site to a new server. Is there a way we can mask the theme with another Homepage displaying “Maintenance.” Would it be best to disable the theme so people are unable to shop? Or should we create a new page that displays this? Let me know. Any advice would be appreciated.
Hi Vibedration!
The theme doesn’t have a maintenance mode but it has have the ability to create a single maintenance mode style page. Just create a new wordpress page and set the template to the blank template.
Then add any coming soon message or content to it as needed.
After saving that page, go to your theme options and set that page you just created to the front page and keep it there until you have created the rest of the pages on your site.
This will still allow the other pages of your site to be directly accessible (where a plugin would actually prevent all pages from being access if you aren’t logged in) but it keeps the index from listing a regular page.
An other option is try using a plugin such as this one – https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-maintenance-mode/

Hi!
That would require some code and if you do it you also brake sites SEO but noone could also see the site, so I wouldnt say ” go for it “…
better play the safe way!Cheers!
