offline or Maintenance plugin/mode

[Connie]

well , since is a new site and html files have priority , i created a index.html file on root
that way i can live test stuff without anybody without the full url see its.

amaurib,

this priority depends on the settings in the .htaccess file:

Code:

DirectoryIndex index.php index.htm index.html

the sequence defines which index-file will be opened when the URL is opened in a browser without a dedicated file

so

Code:

DirectoryIndex maintenance.html  index.php index.htm index.html

would make it even more evident that, when there is a file "maintenance.html" this one will be opened in the browser, when the domain is in "real use" you can take off that file

Cheers, Connie
