Overview

This article will take you through the process of modifying the Plesk WordPress Toolkit maintenance page. At times you may wish to display a custom message when your site enters maintenance for a long period of time.

WordPress also displays this custom page when you’re updating Themes or Plugins so your visitors don’t see a broken site!

Instructions

  1. Log into your Plesk Panel via the Conetix Control Panel or via Plesk Directly if you have a VPS with us.
  2. Click WordPress in the left hand menu:
