Shutting down website #2381

Closed Sharags closed 7 months ago

Sharags commented 8 months ago

I would like to shut down or archive our website. How do I go about doing that?

u07 commented 7 months ago

There is a plugin named maintenance. It can disable the site temporarily. https://github.com/getgrav/grav-plugin-maintenance

The text is customizable.

Good afternoon. Our website administrator left and I am unable to access the admin side of our website at www.leadershipdekalb.orghttp://www.leadershipdekalb.org. I previously accessed the site but now I only receive error messages (see attached photos). I need to shut off services and obtain the URL in order to activate our new website. Please let me know what I can do to make this happen ASAP. Thank you for your help. Shara

Didn't see any screenshots, not sure what you mean by "I need to shut off services and obtain the URL in order to activate our new website"

Do you need access to your site but cannot login? If you have FTP or SSH access to the site you can manually reset the account password.

If you mean you are no longer going to use the Grav website, but have another website you want to link the domain to, then that's not a Grav question at all. You just need to udpate your DNS records to point your domain to the IP address of the new site.

Discord is the better medium for getting help with Grav although it sounds like it's not a Grav question anyway. https://getgrav.org/discord

Thank you. I've been trying to access or reset the password but keep getting the messages (screenshots below this time). We no longer want Grav to host our website. We are using Wild Apricot for our new website. Therefore, we no longer need your services. However, we need the URL to transfer our domain name from Grav to Wild Apricot. I will try Discord but it is very frustrating how difficult it is to get help on this issue.

The Gra Admin Plugin's GitHub issues are for issues regarding bug and problems with the plugin itself. Not for questions about using Grav or issues related to hosting/configuration etc. Discord is the better medium for getting that kind of help. Good luck!

Just to clarify, Grav is purely an open source CMS platform. Ie, it's the free tool your site is built with (like wordpress). Grav is not a hosted service, so your previous website developer purchased some hosting and installed and setup Grav on it. You probably should talk to him if possible.

We/Grav just created the software, we didn't implment it for your site, so you should really be asking the people/person who did that for you.

Thank you for the clarification. I'll see if I can track down the former website administrator. Thanks again.
