Does Sitefinity 4 have an option for putting the site in "maintenance mode" so content can be edited but visitor get a down for maintenance message? If not is there a 3rd party plugin? I have been googling and searching this site to no avail. This a very basic feature in most CMS systems.

Thanks

Hi Brian,

Such feature is not yet implemented in the CMS and I have logged it PITS so you can track the progress and vote for the item.

As a workaround I can suggest you to put a app_offline.htm in the root of your application. The file will turn off the site and will display the contents of the htm file instead. You can also set a second site ( accessed only internally ) using the same copy of the database and edit the internal site.
