Is there a plugin that disables editing, but not viewing, for a WordPress site?
-
Hi there,
I’m trying to figure out a good process for updating a multisite that has a lot of active writing going on.
What I’d like to do is disable editing (so no new posts, edits, comments, etc) while i perform maintenance, such as upgrades, new plugin installations, etc. I don’t want to put the site in full maintenance mode – I still want the front-end to be visible.
The reason for doing this is that if users are creating content while I’m doing my maintenance, and I have to back out of an upgrade by restoring a previous backup, content on the site may be lost.
I’m searching in the repo to see if I can find anything. Thanks for any suggestions!
