Faq
There is no settings page. This plugin is designed to be small and simple.
This is not intended by design. Please use another solution if you want a custom maintenance page.
Please visit the plugins page at WordPress Translate.

Minimalistic and maximally functional. If the banner was also centered in height and width, it would be the best plugin I've ever seen.
Excellent simple plugin

Es ist natürlich schwierig mit so einem Plugin Geld zu verdienen, aber ich LIEBE es.
Genau das was ich brauche. Wartung? Anschalten. Wartung zuende? Ausschalten. Kein Schnick Schnack.
Vielen Dank für dieses Plugin 🙂
