A guest page while you prepare the site

Nifty Coming Soon Pro is a paid WordPress edition for creating coming soon, under-construction, and maintenance pages. When the page is active, guests are redirected to the selected page while logged-in visitors do not see it and can continue working on the website. The responsive design is intended to adapt to different devices.

Edit sections in the plugin options panel and turn them on or off individually. Live preview lets you review the page without logging out or opening another browser. The add-on also includes a coming soon admin bar notification and translation options.

Layout and motion controls

Choose from more than 10 premade themes, then adjust content width, alignment, and colors. Background options include solid color, static, video, and gradient modes. The background slider has pattern and opacity controls, and overlays help place content over the selected visual.

Animated coming soon messages, a countdown timer, and a preloader can communicate timing and status. The background slider includes 16 animations. More than 300 Google fonts and included font icons provide additional appearance options.

Blocks for launch and maintenance updates

Page elements include heading, content, two-column content, map, progress bar, video, and divider blocks. Add the built-in subscription form, MailChimp, or another sign-up form; the subscription area also has a GDPR checkbox. These elements can present a launch message, progress, location details, or video while collecting sign-ups.

Secret access and options

Secret Access creates a shareable link with a secret key for selected people who need to view the site during preparation or maintenance. Pro also has options to reset plugin settings and to import or export plugin options.

Set up and review the page

• Install and activate the plugin, then open its options panel.
• Choose a theme or adjust colors, typography, content width, and alignment.
• Select background settings, overlays, animation, countdown, and page sections.
• Add content blocks and a subscription or other sign-up form as needed.
• Use live preview, then activate maintenance mode when ready.

The plugin is intended to work with any WordPress theme. After activation, logged-in users will not see the Coming Soon page. Review it in the Customizer or open the site in an incognito window or another browser.
