FAQ

How to use plugin filters

Check out our Snippet Library.

Cache Plugin Support

WP Maintenance Mode can be unstable due to the cache plugins; we recommend deactivating any cache plugin when maintenance mode is active. If you really want to use a cache plugin, make sure you delete the entire cache after each change.

Exclude list

If you change your login url, please add the new slug (url: http://domain.com/newlogin, then you should add: newlogin) to Exclude list from plugin settings -> General Tab.

Notice: wp-cron.php is excluded by default.

Thank you very much for the helpful and straightforward plug. Developers often forget the end user and make things a bit more complicated than necessary. Not in this case. It was quick, easy, and got the job done. Five stars for sure.
