maintenance mode help

is there a way to have your forum under maintenance (construction) mode and still allow staff to log in (ie. our designers, moderators and what not)?
thank you for any help

Only, admins can login.

Like Sanket said, only Admins are allowed to sign in to the forum. To enable this mode:

ACP > General >Forum > Configuration > Forum in construction: Yes

You can also change what it will say when people go to your forum. Hope that helps!

This only works for 24-hours at a time

thats what i thought
thank you for your help

Is there another way to set it just so certain ranks can log in?
I'm sorry so many questions, major noob here hah

Nopes, only the ones having administrator access will be able to log in.

thank you so much for your help

Since this thread appears to be solved, I will lock this thread and mark it as solved.
