It’s a basic and developer oriented plugin, without all the weird bells and whistles and annoying ads and upselling found in other bloated plugins. I just want to Block visitors from accidentally accessing a demo website, thinking it’s the real thing. Whitelist my IP-address, so I can continue working on the website. Create a URL with a password that I can send to someone who needs temporary access to the test site. Enable/disable the block with a click This plugin, does that, and that’s it. Plain and simple. And that’s what makes it stand out from the crowds. 👍 Tested August ’23 on WP 6.3 and PHP 8.1 ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/5008d5d6f0a25e5b5a5cda217f22ade71a13c801c92fbed1223c23e107bbf2b5? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[WP-Admin and Admin is blocked as well](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/page-is-now-blogged-for-ever/)󠁿 [porates](https://profiles.wordpress.org/porates/) chunyo 30, 2023 2 replies as well /admin – /wp-admin is “under construction” horrible pugin – – keep your hand away from this This means – I have to reinstall everything — Support was fast 🙂 [ Read all 9 reviews ](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/really-simple-under-construction/reviews/) ## Contributors & Developers “Really Simple Under Construction Page” is open source software.
