What I meant is that you don’t have to manually put the site into maintenance mode. * Answering your initial question: * > Would you advise going into maintenance mode before updating RSA? In other > words, should I update with RSA activated or deactivated? * We don’t advise you putting your site into maintenance mode because while updating a plugin, WordPress puts the site into maintenance mode anyway. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Restricted Site Access] Advice on updating.

I verified this with few tests as well. * If you’re comfortable with code, you can find the section where WordPress core handles it [here](http://if ( $maintenance ) { $this->maintenance_mode( true ); }). * Let us know if you have any further questions.

We’re running some tests to confirm this and will come up with an answer with the next release.
