How to lock up my forum ?

by smerf95 October 13th 2012, 6:12 pm

Hi my question is .. How can I close up my forum for a while ?
What i want to shoot down is the forum its self and all the HTML pages .
Is there any way to do this ? And also whould I be able to change things in the forum while its closed? If yes how to log in ?

Or else is there an option to set a passwors that only people who know the password can go in to the forum Very Happy

? Thank you !

Hi,

Adding to EliteUniverse, only Administrators are able to access the forum. Members will be able to log in but wont be able to view the board. When you place the forum Under construction, it will be set only for 24 hours.
