Enabling Coming Soon In Helix Ultimate Make The Website Editing Impossible?
BOFHJunior
Hey guys,
i have serveral questions regarding the Coming Soon option in Helix Ultimate. Joomla and all Addons are up to date. "Site Offline" is set to "Yes" in the Joomla Global Configuration.
I activated the "Enable Coming Soon" option in Helix Ultimate and saved. All inserted texts, a photo and set options are shown when i visit the Website. So far so good. But if i select "Edit Page" inside Helix Ultimate or inside SP Page Builder i only see the Coming Soon Page and have no possibility to edit the Page content. Clearing Joomla and Browser (Firefox) Cache didn't solved the issue. How can i edit my pages when the Coming Soon option is activated in Helix Ultimate?
I deactivated the "Enable Coming Soon" option in Helix Ultimate and saved but the content of the Coming Soon page is still shown (Clearing Joomla and Browser (Firefox) Cache didn't solved the issue). The only difference is, after login i can edit the page content now. That's a workaround for me. But why is the Coming Soon content still being shown after "Enable Coming Soon" was deactivated in Helix Ultimate?
Changes in System -> Global Configuration -> Site -> "Site Name", "Custom Message" or "Offline Image" are not beeing considered. Only the content from the Coming Soon option in Helix Ultimate is shown, although it is deactivated. Why is the content from Global Configuration -> Site not shown when "Enable Coming Soon" is deactivated in Helix Ultimate?
best Regards

Accepted AnswerI thought it was fixed in last Helix update.
Anyway, you can always DELETE that file from template folder "offline.php"
then defult Joomla file will be used.

Accepted AnswerHi,
In general "Coming Soon" was created to use this when you don't work on the website right now. To show users Counting timer + social icons etc. That's why you don't have access to site.
"Coming Soon" Helix =/= Offline mode from Joomla
In raw Helix Ultimate 2.0.13 or 2.0.12 content displayed in "Coming Soon" page is from Helix settings
BTW
In my private project I never used that feature. I prefered offline mode or my own custom Page.

Accepted AnswerHi Paul, thx for your explanation. Now I understand the Coming Soon feature better.
But why is my Text and Picture from Joomla Offline Mode not shown when Coming Soon is deactivated. Any ideas?

Accepted AnswerNo, unfortunately its not fixed in 2.0.13. How can i report this bug?
I renamed the offline.php to offline.php_old. Now the Custom Message from Joomla is displayed but not the Image. :-( That's maybe a Joomla Bug.
