Effortless Coming Soon and Maintenance Mode - redirect all visitors to a selected page while allowing admins full access.

== Description ==

PausePage is a simple and powerful plugin that puts your site into Coming Soon or Maintenance Mode with just a checkbox.

**Features:**
* Add a single checkbox in Settings >> General to activate maintenance mode
* AJAX-powered page selector to choose your Coming Soon or Maintenance page
* Redirects all users to that page unless logged in as an Admin
* Automatically hides the header and footer on the selected page for most themes

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Can I use a custom page? =
Yes! The AJAX-powered selector lets you choose any published page on your site.

Yes. Logged-in administrators are never redirected and can continue working on the site.

No. It only redirects the **front-end** for non-admin visitors.
