    Help! I installed a plugin to deactivate my site for a time and now no matter how I try to get in to the site to delete the plugin I get the screen: “This blog is currently undergoing scheduled maintenance. Please try after 60 minutes. Sorry for the inconvenience”

    How do I get in to the site to fix?

    You can ftp to your site, rename that plugin by adding .bak to the plugin folder name, that will disable the plugin.
    You will find the plugins folder here:
    wpcontent/plugins/

    I understand, You will need to access your site either by FTP or through the file manager from your host. This is how you access the actual files on your site. You can even do it from your browser.
    FTP means FILE TRANSFER PROTOCOL

    Contact your host, the easiest method. Then locate the offending plugin file and delete it’s folder. Once there you need to look for the following folder, then look for your plugin.

    /wp-content/plugins/

    I will be offline for a few hours, will check back. Google Search for a video on FTP.

    Were you able to disable your plugin?
