Maintenance mode (WordPress)

By itself, WordPress doesn't seem to have a provision for setting a site in Maintenance mode, Under construction, etc.

So far, I think I've only used the LightStart plugin. It used to have another name - Hence the installation name below, is so different.

Installation

wp plugin install wp-maintenance-mode --activate
