Solved maintenance mode help

Post by lilsoph December 28th 2010, 12:49 am

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 Smile

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!
