Maintenance Mode – bypass for one user
-
Hi,
I’m working on my first WP site and while I’m building the site I have it in maintenance mode, and it’s working great. My question is, is there a way for one user to bypass the maintenance mode to view the site and confirm everything before maintenance mode is turned off and the site goes live?Thanks

Hey there! It depends on which maintenance mode plugin you’re using. Our service has a Coming Soon mode built in. Any visitors you’ve added to the site will be able to see the full thing:

https://wordpress.com/support/user-roles/#list-of-user-rolesIf you need more help, can you send a link to the affected site?
Also, these forums are for the sites hosted and managed here at WordPress.com, vs. sites using WordPress code with another host. If you’re not sure about your site, send a link, and we can point you in the right direction.
If it is definitely hosted somewhere else, we’d recommend contacting support for your plugin first, then searching and posting in the forums for the free WordPress software if you need more help: https://wordpress.org/support/forums/
