Temporary Homepage

[Dovoda]

I want to set up a new Prestashop.

 

How can I set a temporary index (homepage) until I finished setting up my website?

there are several ways how I do this:

 

1. protect your website with .htaccess and .htpasswd

2. move your PS files into the directory (e.g. /eshop), set your homepage with temporary index as you want and after you finish setup, move PS files back to the root dir

If i choose option 2, all the url's are like this: e.g./eshop

 

When I move the files back in the root folder, wont this be a problem with the url's?

Does it automatically correct the url's?

Hello,

you can desactivate your boutique in your admin preference, this will display a maintenance page. If you want to customize this page, you can edit the file maintenance.tpl in your theme.

yes, you are right.

Then you must set your IP address in BO > Preferences to access FO.

But this solution is not usable when you have dynamic IP address (in my case)
