 * Is there a way to exclude all posts from showing the maintenance page or do you
   have to manually select each one individually?

 * “Exclude Pages or Posts” means to allow a specific post or page to be accessible
   via their respective URL’s. The maintenance page will not show a site menu, so
   a person has to have the post or page URL to insert into the URL text field of
   the browser to access it.
 * To allow access to a specific post or page via their respective URL’s when maintenance
   mode is on, you must select each post or page individually in the respective 
   text field box provided by the plugin.
 * When you insert the cursor into the post or page text field box, it will list
   all posts or pages you created. You can select all of the posts or pages, but
   only one at a time to do it. The text field box will list all posts or pages 
   you selected as individual label boxes that have “x” to it. (yea, they need to
   create a “select all” feature).
 * To disallow any URL access to any of your posts or pages when maintenance mode
   is on, then the respective text field box must be empty.
 * Does that help?
