Hi there I was wondering how people usually turn the app off during system maintainance. During the hours of 6-7 the database goes down for backing up, the users therefore keeping trying to get into the system, i get an error that the database is down when i know it should be down near that time. Without causing too many if statements what is the best way to do this ?
I'm sure you have at least one file that is included in every script. In the file at the top do: if(DOWN) { include('down_for_maintainance.html'); exit; }
