One of the tasks I was trying to accomplish yesterday was to modify the “Coming Soon” page to add a line about the store being closed, but to try again later. Or, something close to that.
Well, the push to make content relatively seamless makes customizing automatic pages more difficult. Bottom line, changing the “Coming Soon” page (which is not a page, but a php call) was more involved than I wanted to get into.
Essentially what I wanted was an open/close toggle to make the store unavailable when closed, as in when we are engaged in an event and don’t have time to make special deliveries.
A light bulb clicked with an epiphany, why don’t I simply look for an open/closed toggle app. Turns out there is (at least) one. Voila — works like a champ.
