G'day
As a freelancer, my expertise lies in developing and managing websites, including Magento websites. I have experience in creating and customizing Magento extensions to fit specific needs of clients.
For the project, I understand that you would like to have the option of enabling your website to go online or offline, specifically during maintenance work in the back end. With Magento, this feature is not readily available, but it can be achieved by creating a custom extension or with a workaround using a WordPress directory.
My proposed solution for this project would be to create a custom extension that allows you to schedule website downtime for maintenance. The extension would have the option to set a specific date and time for the website to go offline, and once the maintenance work is completed, it can be scheduled to go back online automatically.
Alternatively, a WordPress directory can be set up within your Magento website, which would act as a landing page for your website during maintenance. This page can be customized to inform visitors about the maintenance work and when the website will be back online.
Please let me know if you would like to discuss this further or if you have any additional requirements for this project. Thank you.
Best regards,
