Overview
When a store is closed for a break, maintenance, or another planned pause, customers need clear information and the store needs control over new orders. This plugin lets owners set vacation periods and show a custom notice while keeping the store visible. Checkout can be blocked during the closure, and product availability can be adjusted so selected items remain available.
Set scheduled vacations or recurring weekday closures, then review them in a calendar in the settings area. During vacation mode, customers can also be allowed to add products to their cart while checkout stays unavailable. Checkout blocking supports both Classic Checkout and Checkout Block through the Store API. Product exclusions let owners choose which items are affected by vacation restrictions.
Features
- Scheduled closures: Set store vacation periods in advance, with options for scheduled periods and recurring weekday closures.
- Customer notices: Display a custom message to tell visitors about the store’s status during a closure.
- Control product access: Exclude selected products from vacation restrictions, allowing owners to manage which items remain available.
- Cart without checkout: Let customers add products to the cart during vacation mode while keeping checkout unavailable.
- Checkout blocking support: Block checkout with Classic Checkout or Checkout Block through the Store API when cart building is enabled.
- Vacation calendar: Review scheduled vacations and recurring weekday closures in a calendar within the settings area.
