Site closed for maintenance

When I shut my site down for development it would be great if I could tell it to just open up a default dummy page. Example would be that my site supports both php and htm for an extension. By default it looks for the index.php, when the site is being worked on I would want it to open up index.htm instead of the current screen that it shows. This way I can still have a splash page with the basic information for my clients.

TIA for any direction you can give.

Just design a index.htm temporary splash page upload it and rename index.php to index2.php or something like that. Then when someone goes to your site the browser will bring up index.htm. To put your site back online delete index.htm and rename index2.php back to index.php. Hope this answers your question!

I new I could do that I was just hoping to understand how it was sending me to the page that it was so that maybe I could alter the code or table setting to send it to another page. Samething for when the database is unavailable. At times the db is unavailable on my site so it kicks up an error page, I want to have it kick up a generic splash screen so the general user does not even know a problem exists.

Thanks for taking the time to respond to my original message

what's wrong with the system_siteclosed template? You can make it look like any HTML file you want!

Simplely you don't need to do this way.

Look at mine: http://www.maxmzone.com

First make sure you duplicated your templates and then goto "system" and find the template for siteclosed. Copy and paste into your web editor programs or etc. or you can download the template and upload when done editing.

Save It.
