TL;DR

AI summary of the plugin's readme

This plugin is for WordPress site administrators who need to take their site offline temporarily for maintenance. It solves the problem of showing visitors an unfinished or under-maintenance site by restricting frontend access to admins only while sending the correct HTTP status to search engines.
