Maintenance mode - does it create 503.php?


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I'm shutting down my live shop on PS 1.3.1 for one week in order to move to PS 1.6.09 by turning on the maintenance mode in the back office. However, I'm concerned about Google bots returning errors when indexing the website. I read that I need to create a 503.php file and redirect to that file from htaccess. My question is - does the Prestashop maintenance mode take care of that or I still need to create 503.php manually?

I read advice on this website: http://moz.com/blog/how-to-handle-downtime-during-site-maintenance

 

Thank you.
