Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Coming Soon & Maintenance Mode by Colorlib

Go to Coming Soon in the WordPress admin menu and click "Turn on" or "Turn off the coming soon page". The same switch is in the Customizer under General. While the page is on, a red item in the admin bar reminds you. Deactivating the plugin also turns the page off.

Everyone except users who can edit posts (administrators, editors, authors and contributors) sees the coming soon page, including logged-in subscribers and customers. Developers can change the required capability with the ccsm_bypass_capability filter. To show the real site to a client without an account, share the preview link from the Coming Soon admin page. The login page at wp-login.php is always accessible.

Navigate to Coming Soon (in the WordPress admin menu) > Templates. You will see a visual preview of all 15 available templates. Click on the one you want to use and the preview will update immediately.

Go to Coming Soon (in the WordPress admin menu) > General and enable "Activate Timer Countdown." Then set your launch date and time using the date picker, in your site's timezone (Settings > General). Every visitor counts down to the same moment, wherever they are. Once the date has passed the countdown is hidden rather than left at zero. Note that templates 12 and 14 do not display a countdown timer.

Go to Coming Soon (in the WordPress admin menu) > Subscribe Form and paste your MailChimp signup form action URL. You can find this URL in your MailChimp account under Lists > Signup Forms > Embedded Forms. Copy the URL from the form's action attribute.

Yes. Go to Coming Soon (in the WordPress admin menu) > Social Links and enter your profile URLs for Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Pinterest, Instagram, or an email address. Social links are supported on most templates (all except templates 2, 4, 5, and 8).

Yes. Under Coming Soon (in the WordPress admin menu) > General you can upload a custom logo image (recommended size: 80x80px) and a background image. Most templates support both options, though a few templates use fixed layouts without background images.

Yes. Go to Coming Soon (in the WordPress admin menu) > Custom CSS. This provides a code editor where you can add CSS that applies only to the coming soon page without affecting the rest of your site.

Go to Coming Soon (in the WordPress admin menu) > General and enter your Google Analytics 4 measurement ID (e.g., G-XXXXXXXXXX) in the tracking code field.

The coming soon page is sent with no-cache headers and tells caching plugins (WP Super Cache, W3 Total Cache, LiteSpeed Cache and others) not to store it, so it will not linger after you reopen the site. Pages your cache stored before you turned the coming soon page on can still be served, so clear your cache whenever you turn it on or off.
