I tried editing the "site closed" message that appears when the admin closes the site for mainteinance.



editing the "modules\system\templates\system_siteclosed.html" file, but after reloading, nothing has changed.

¿Which is the file I must edit?

Go to System Admin > Preferences > General Settings. Edit the message there.

thanks jdsymour, but what I need is to change not the message, but the whole layout of this page.

Sorry (my fault), I meant the layout of this page.

Quote:

By default, templates aren't recompiled each time you display a page (coz it's faster like that).

- Go to admin / prefs / general
- Make sure the "check templates for modifications" option is enabled
- Display the "site closed" page at least once, to make sure the modified template is read by xoops
- Once everything's ok, you can disable the option again

Additionally: it's never good to change the template directly, you may lose your changes when upgrading. Instead of modifying the default file, you'd better make a copy of it to: themes/your_theme/modules/system/system_siteclosed.html

and edit this copy instead (just remember to change the option in the admin... it's still required if you want your changes to be taken into account).

jakijem,
whats your cerrent theme?
