Hello @sankoweb1,
1. If you see a 503 error instead of the maintenance mode page (which is a custom 503 error page), your web server is not configured correctly. You should tell your hosting provider that you want to use the 503 error page from WordPress.
2. I have never used Hide My WP, but I suppose you changed the login/logout/wp-admin URLs. If yes, you should add each changed slug to the Exclude settings.
Example: If the new login URL is https://domain.com/custom-login/, you should add custom-login to the Exclude settings.

Hi @georgejipa ,
Thank you for the reply.
1. I can see the custom maintenance page when Hide My WP is disabled. So I guess the server is alright.
2. Yes I changed them. I added them to exclusion list, but it didn’t make any difference. Although, a couple of times I ended up having an empty WP maintenance mode settings page saying “security check” in the upper corner. Maybe I should ask Hide My WP about this?
Hello @sankoweb1,
You see the “Security check” message only if the nonces are not valid. So, I suppose that “Hide My WP” is changing (somehow) the _wpnonce fields.
Anyway, I will probably test “Hide My WP” somewhere in the future (no ETA, though). For now, I recommend disabling it when you use the maintenance mode because it is making too many breaking changes.
