Close site
Activated with the "Close site when server load is above the threshold" or "Close Site" preferences. The site will be closed but allow groups with tiki_p_access_closed_site permission to log in.
The page displayed when the site is closed is generated from a template HTML file called templates/styles/site_closed.html. If you want to customise this, it is recommended you make a copy of it called site_closed_local.html and edit that. This will be used in preference to the standard one if found.
The following "tags" will be replaced in the HTML:
- {title}
- Page title and H1 tags
- {error}
- Text displayed under the title heading
- {login}
- The login form
- {back}
- A browser back button (probably will be removed because this doesn't always make sense)
