Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Store Vacation Lite for WooCommerce

Store Vacation Lite for WooCommerce is useful when you need to temporarily pause new WooCommerce orders without taking your store offline. You can use it for vacations, holidays, illness, family emergencies, fulfilment delays, stock reviews, maintenance windows, or any period when you are unable to process new orders.

Yes. Woo Store Vacation was renamed to Store Vacation Lite for WooCommerce after nine years under the original name — the underlying plugin, settings, saved schedules, and notice content all carry over automatically. Only the display name has changed. If you arrived here from a tutorial, YouTube video, blog post, or forum thread that references “Woo Store Vacation,” you’re in the right place. No re-installation, no re-configuration, and no data migration is required.

No. Store Vacation Lite for WooCommerce keeps your website and products visible. If you enable the “Disable Purchase” option, customers can browse your store but cannot complete checkout or place new orders during vacation mode.

No. The plugin keeps your store visible and does not add no-index meta tags to your shop. Customers and search engines can still access your store pages while vacation mode is active.

Yes. The vacation notice can be added to block-based themes using the Store Vacation Notice block in the Site Editor, template parts, or any page. The notice also appears automatically on WooCommerce shop and product pages regardless of theme.

No. Store Vacation Lite for WooCommerce only loads its logic on the frontend when vacation mode is active, and only enqueues the notice styles on pages where the notice is displayed. There is no measurable performance impact when vacation mode is off.

You can find the plugin settings in your WordPress dashboard under WooCommerce » Settings » Store Vacation.

To set up vacation mode: Go to WooCommerce » Settings » Store Vacation. Enable the “Enable Vacation Mode” option. Set the “Start Date”. Set the “End Date”. Optionally enable “Disable Purchase” to pause checkout and add-to-cart behavior. Add a vacation notice message. Click “Save Changes”.

The “Disable Purchase” option disables eCommerce purchase functionality while vacation mode is active. It removes or disables cart, checkout, and add-to-cart behavior so customers cannot place new orders during the vacation period.

Yes. Your products remain visible while purchases are paused. This allows customers to browse your catalog and return when the store reopens.
