Hi Folks,

Just a suggestion.

When I shut down the site, as Administrator I should be allowed to continue to work in the site and make changes and updates.

Perhaps, someone could chane some thing like this...


If SiteDown = "Yes" Then
    If Not Session( "Admin" ) = "Admin"
        Response.Redirect( "down.asp" )
    End If
End If

This way you could shut the site down to everyone except the admin. Then the admin could have access to the whole board to make changes, test mods etc..

Just a suggestion. What do you think.

The "Shutdown the forum" feature was never meant to be used to shut down the forum for any other reason than to compact an Access Database. That was the sole reason for including it. It was never meant to be used for any other reason.

Hi Richard,

I just threw that suggestion out there.

Manytimes I programm a web site to do this for regular maintanace and upgrades. While the current shutdown feature allows you to still have access to the admin section, it would be nice to have it give the administrator full access to change other things and test them, look at them, etc...
