  • Great plugin

    Very reliable and with options that allows a selective control of the produce categories that can be left sellable during holidays.

  • Very Useful

    This plugin has been fantastic when I need to schedule vacation time or breaks for my store. No issues!

  • Blue Skies as far as the eye can see

    Does what it says on the tin. Thank you.

  • Worked Great

    It did what I needed it to do.

  • Simple and straightforward

    Although the current version of WooCommerce has a simple "Coming Soon" mode, it lacks the important extra functionality that this plugin offers for temporarily disabling your store, such as setting the vacation window time frame and allowing the store to stay visible while only blocking the checkout. This is my go-to plugin for any store owner who needs to disable his store for a period of time!

  • Great Feature to have

    It has been a great add on feature.
