AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Dashboard Maintenance Mode is a category-leading WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. 1 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.

How Dashboard Maintenance Mode works
If, for example, your clients want to be able to “turn off” their website for a while, so they can work on new
content or features of their website, but you don’t want them rummaging through the WordPress Settings pages to do so, this plugin might be something for you.
This plugin creates a very simple little widget for your WP Dashboard, from which the website can turned to / out of maintenance mode.
Activating maintenance mode will display a maintenance mode page with explanatory text for your visitors. Logged in users will be able to view the website as they normally would.
The plugin will automatically create a maintenance.php file and add it to your /wp-content/ directory. Customize this page to change the appearance and text of the maintenance mode page.
Known bugs
* Right now, this plugin will not work on certain servers (like Antagonist.nl) because of a permissions issue.
