You could add this to your excellent Deanos tools. No editing of core files. A much better way to go especially when it comes to D7 updates.

There are none so blind as those that will not see.

Doesn't work for me.

I checked the DB, and the value for dm_maint_enabled is 'on' when enabled, and blank when not enabled.  Module installed OK, and double checked the edit to inc/design.inc.php and it's OK.

I'm good at breaking things.  It's what I do.

LOL. No probs HL.

The value is only tested for being 'ON' in the active state, In the inactive state it is NULL, but it could easily be anything except 'ON'.

I'm wondering if it might be a cache issue. The cache should be cleared when the setting is saved. Any chance you can try deleting your cache/sys_options.php file and try again?

Cheers.

PS Sorry Deano, didn't mean to tread on any toes, just thought that a maintenance page mod was needed.

I have had one in the market for quite a while.

I no longer sell any of my editor mods for faq, about us, ect. for the same reason. Someone released a free one.

Just means i have to get coding and come up with some new mods.

Notice Deanos Tools is not in the Boonex Picks in the market. I am betting it's one of the most popular mods here but because i had to start a new market entry because the old one could not be edited, it did not stand out so it was not picked.

My kind of luck. I always get screwed. And i don't even get dinner first.

I was under the impression from the blog post Andrew made that the picks were hand picked by Boonex staff.

They are. Based on reviews. And Andrew Boon visited my profile today. The only time he ever has. Just kinda bums me out that i could not get boonex to fix my previous market entry before the release of 7.0.2. Going on 7 weeks waiting for it. I finally had to say screw it.

OK. Hopefully now fixed. :)

New version uploaded.

To upgrade you will need to uninstall old version and remove additional lines from /inc/design.inc.php. Then follow the instructions for the new installation.
