Activate Maintenance Mode In Elementor

Maintenance mode is a feature used on websites to temporarily take them offline for updates, upgrades, or fixes while showing a message to visitors that the site is currently unavailable. With Elementor, you can easily enable a custom Maintenance or Coming Soon page to inform users while you work on your website in the background.

Enable maintenance mode in Elementor

Follow these steps to activate Maintenance Mode in Elementor:

1. Go to your WordPress Dashboard.
2. Navigate to Elementor > Tools.
3. Click on the Maintenance Mode tab.
4. Under Choose Mode, select either:
   
   • Coming Soon: If the site is not live yet.
   • Maintenance: If the site is temporarily offline for updates.
5. In the Who Can Access dropdown, choose which user roles should still be able to view the full site (e.g., Administrator).
6. In the Choose Template dropdown, select a pre-designed template or one you've created for the Maintenance or Coming Soon page.
7. Click Save Changes to activate Maintenance Mode.
