A WordPress plugin that lets you put your site in “coming soon” or “under construction” mode in one click — no coding required.

Overview

The plugin covers two core scenarios: Both modes are designed to work without touching code, across major themes and page builders (Divi, Elementor, and the native block editor).

Requirements

  • WordPress (version — confirm minimum supported version)
  • No additional dependencies noted for the free tier

Installation & Activation

  1. Install the plugin via Plugins → Add New in your WordPress dashboard, or upload the plugin ZIP manually.
  2. Activate the plugin.
  3. Go to the plugin’s settings page (exact menu location — confirm; commonly appears under Settings or as its own top-level menu item).
  4. Toggle Coming Soon Mode or Under Construction Mode on. Activation and deactivation are instant — no page rebuild required.

Settings Reference

The subsections below map to the feature list from the marketing page. Field names are placeholders — replace with the actual labels from the settings panel.

1. Mode Selection

  • Choose between Coming Soon and Under Construction.
  • Only one mode can be active at a time (confirm this assumption).

2. Design & Customization

Available on Pro and Agency plans (the Free plan includes a basic coming-soon page only).
  • Custom colors
  • Custom fonts
  • Background image or video
  • Logo upload
  • All editable directly from the WordPress dashboard — no CSS required.

3. Countdown Timer

  • Available on the Free plan and above.
  • Displays a countdown to a set launch date/time on the coming-soon page.
  • Confirm: timezone handling, and whether the timer auto-hides or redirects at zero.

4. Email Capture (subscriber collection)

Available on Pro and Agency plans.
  • Adds an email signup field to the coming-soon page so visitors can be notified at launch.
  • Confirm: where captured emails are stored — plugin dashboard export? Integration with a mailing list provider (Mailchimp, etc.)? This isn’t specified on the marketing page and should be documented precisely.

5. Access Control & Bypass Roles

Available on Agency plan.
  • Control which visitor roles can bypass the coming-soon/maintenance page (e.g., logged-in admins always see the live site).
  • Confirm: can specific roles beyond Administrator be granted bypass access? Is there an IP-based bypass option?

6. SEO & Search Engine Indexing

  • Choose whether the coming-soon/maintenance page is indexable by search engines or hidden (typically via a noindex meta tag or similar).
  • Available across plans per the marketing copy (“Search engine friendly — control indexing during launch”).

7. White-Label Branding

Available on Agency plan only.
  • Remove/replace plugin branding — intended for agencies deploying the plugin across client sites.

8. Compatibility

  • Works with any WordPress theme without code edits.
  • Explicit compatibility called out for Divi, Elementor, and the block editor.
  • Mobile-responsive output on both coming-soon and maintenance pages.
