Advanced Maintenance Mode

How to Configure the Plugin

1. Navigate to "Extensions" → "My Extensions" in the Shopware Admin panel.
2. Locate the Advanced Maintenance Mode plugin in the list and click "Configure" on the right side.

By default, the settings apply to all sales channels. If you want to configure a specific sales channel, select it from the dropdown menu at the top of the page.

Maintenance Mode Section

Authorized Users

• The IP addresses of selected users will be automatically whitelisted for sales channels once they log into the Shopware Administration.
• If you want to authorize users only for a specific sales channel, choose it from the dropdown list at the top of the page.

Scheduler Section

This section allows you to set up a schedule to automatically enable and disable maintenance mode on specific days and at specific times.

Active Toggle

• Enables or disables the entire Scheduler section.
• If this toggle is off, any other settings within the Scheduler section will not take effect.

Days of the Week

• Specifies on which days maintenance mode should be activated.
• The time zone used is UTC. The selected day starts at 00:00 UTC.

Start Time

• The exact time (in UTC) when the selected sales channel will enter maintenance mode.

Duration in Minutes

• The number of minutes after Start Time when the sales channel will exit maintenance mode.

Scheduler Check Frequency in Minutes

• This setting applies globally to all sales channels, even if a specific sales channel is selected.
• This value should be lower than the Duration setting.
• The actual activation time of maintenance mode may vary slightly based on this value.
  • For example, if the Check Frequency is set to 5 minutes and Start Time is 00:00, maintenance mode might start at 00:05, depending on Shopware's internal scheduler.
