Maintenance Page Settings

The maintenance page is a standalone HTML page served to blocked visitors. It does not use your WordPress theme — it’s a minimal, self-contained page with its own styling.

Background Color

The Background Color setting controls the full-page background behind the content block. Click the color swatch to open the WordPress color picker. The default is a dark blue (#1e3a5f).

If you also set a background image, the color is visible while the image loads and in any areas the image doesn’t cover.

Background Image

Click Upload Image to choose an image from the media library. The image is applied as a full-page cover background — it scales to fill the browser window and stays centered.

To remove the image, click the Remove button. With no image set, only the background color is shown.

For best results, use an image that is at least 1920 pixels wide. The image is loaded via CSS background-image, so it does not affect page load performance significantly.

Content Block Background

The content you write is displayed inside a centered container with rounded corners and a subtle shadow. The Content Block Background setting controls this container’s background color.

  • White (default) — A white box with a drop shadow, providing good contrast for text.
  • Custom color — Use the color picker to match your branding.
  • Transparent — Check the Transparent checkbox to remove the container background entirely. The shadow is also removed. This is useful when you’re using a background image and want the text to float over it.

Content

The Content field uses the standard WordPress rich text editor (TinyMCE). You can:

  • Write formatted text with headings, paragraphs, bold, italic, and links.
  • Insert images using the Add Media button.
  • Switch to the Text tab to edit raw HTML.
  • Use inline styles for alignment (e.g., text-align: center).

If you leave the content field empty, the plugin displays a default message: “Under Maintenance — We are currently performing scheduled maintenance. We’ll be back shortly.”

Page Layout

The maintenance page uses a centered flexbox layout. The content container is capped at 600 pixels wide and has responsive padding that shrinks on mobile screens. The page adapts gracefully to all screen sizes without any configuration.
