FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

01. How to change the design and/or texts?

The default layout is from the plugin's view.php (available under templates/ directory). To override the layout simply copy the file (view.php) and create a directory named maintenano in your theme directory, and paste the file (file structure would be like: {your_theme}/maintenano/view.php). Now change the view however you want.

You can also intercept the template with maintenano_template filter hook.

02. How to change who can see the site?

When the maintenance mode is active, by default, only the administrator (with the capability manage_options) can see the site. You can change the capability with the maintenano_allowed_capability filter hook.

03. How to translate the plugin?

Locales can be placed under any of the following way:

  • WP_LANG_DIR/maintenano/LOCALE.mo
  • WP_LANG_DIR/plugins/maintenano-LOCALE.mo
