Maintenance Mode

Dan

It would be quite useful to be able to put Enhance into maintenance mode, allowing admins to login but not clients and displaying a custom message.

This would be useful while performing upgrades for example.

Dan thanks for sharing this. I can see how this feature would be really useful.

What would happen if a user is already logged in? Force them out? If they are performing an action like uploading a large file would this cut that and force them out?

Hi Masinor, these are all very good questions and the reason why a feature on first glance might look simple to implement, but actually involves not just the coding of the feature itself but handling/testing of edge cases and multiple other aspects. Everything is always more complex than it first looks!

I would say it's handled the same as it is currently when you perform an upgrade. The client is logged out and shown the message you configure.

It'll be an inconvenience if they are uploading a large file however it's only something that would typically be used if absolutely necessary, i.e upgrades, emergency maintenance etc.
