tutuhappyllc Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Is there any way to leave a custom message that will be displayed while I have my site in maintenance mode while I'm building it? Setting up my site has taken much longer than I ever thought possible with a ready to use template format and I have print ads coming out that I cannot stop with my domain on them. I was hoping to tailor a message redirecting customers to another site for information. Is that possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemoPS Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 If you already put your store in maintenance mode (preferences, maintenance) then you can edit the maintenance.tpl file to display a custom message (theme folder), or you can try with translations for the same page and modify the texts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tutuhappyllc Posted August 1, 2014 Author Share Posted August 1, 2014 Thanks so much for your help. I'm pretty un-savvy in the tech dept. Can you tell me specifically where to find that file to modify. My store is already in maintenance mode via preferences/maintenance. Thanks!

tutuhappyllc Posted August 1, 2014 Author Share Posted August 1, 2014 Ok so I figured out how to find the file to edit and have modified the maintenance mode message. Any idea how to get the site I want to redirect to hyperlinked? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemoPS Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 yes, just use the anchor tag: <a href="http:site.com">Link text</a> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
