About this plugin
This minimalistic plugin allows administrators to activate maintenance mode with fully customizable HTML and CSS. The plugin allows you to unlock access to maintenance mode with a simple passcode/password. After entering the passcode correctly, the visitor will see the full version of the site without having to have a user account.
The input password can be secured using Google reCaptcha.
Key Features:
- Customizable Maintenance Page: Set the page title and content using the built-in WordPress WYSIWYG editor. Easily add media from your website’s media library.
- Advanced Customization: Insert custom CSS styles, analytics codes, and additional scripts in various sections of the page.
- User Access Control: Unauthenticated visitors will see the maintenance mode page, while all logged-in users with the “Visitor” role or higher will have full access to the website.
- Enter using a simple password: Visitors can unlock the site using a simple password and see it without the maintenance mode page. No user account is required for this unlocking in the WordPress system.
This plugin provides a simple yet powerful way to create a personalized maintenance mode page while maintaining full control over its design and functionality.

What data is sent and when?
When a user submits the unlock form, the plugin sends the following data to Google’s reCAPTCHA API:
– The user’s reCAPTCHA response token.
– The user’s IP address (sent automatically by Google’s API).
– The action associated with the reCAPTCHA verification.
Why is this data sent?
The data is required for Google reCAPTCHA to assess the likelihood that the form submission is performed by a human user. The plugin uses this verification to help prevent automated access attempts.
