Cookbook Maintenance SeedProd

Set up a coming soon or maintenance page with AI

Your assistant designs a coming-soon page and enables the mode only after you approve it.

Difficulty Beginner
Time ~10 min

Prerequisites

A connected WordPress site with SeedProd Pro installed

The prompt
Design a coming-soon page for my site, but do not enable coming-soon mode until I say so. My WordPress site: [your site URL].

The page should say: [describe the message, for example our new store opens in two weeks]. Tone: [for example friendly, minimal, or exciting].

1. Search for a background image that fits, then create the page with SeedProd's save-page ability as a coming-soon page. Do not pass activate. Give it a headline, a short paragraph, and a countdown if it suits the message.
2. Do not enable coming-soon mode yet. After saving, tell me whether the response says the compile finished. If it did not, give me the builder edit link and tell me to open it once and click Save.
3. Give me the builder edit link so I can review the page, and describe what you built so I can check the wording.
4. Wait for me to confirm. Only after I say yes, enable coming-soon mode with SeedProd's toggle-coming-soon ability, passing the id of the page you just created so it binds the right page. Then confirm the mode is on.
5. Remind me that to take the site out of coming-soon mode later I just ask you to disable it, and that logged-in admins always see the real site in the meantime.

Skip pasting the full prompt. Drop this into your AI on a site that already has WPVibe:

Run the “Set up a coming soon or maintenance page with AI” recipe from the WPVibe cookbook on my connected site.

You are rebuilding the site, or it is not ready for visitors yet, but the half-finished pages are already public. You want a single branded page that says the real thing is coming, without unpublishing everything by hand or leaving visitors to wander through a site that looks broken while you work on it.

With WPVibe connected, your assistant designs a coming-soon page in SeedProd (a headline, a short message, and a countdown) and saves it. It does not switch coming-soon mode on at that point. You look at the page first. Only after you say yes does the assistant enable the mode, which hides the live site from visitors while you stay logged in and keep working. Turning it back off is a single instruction, and your real pages return untouched.

Copy the prompt below into an assistant with WPVibe connected and describe the page you want. Review the page the assistant builds before you let it enable coming-soon mode, because enabling the mode hides your site from everyone who is not logged in. When you are ready to go live again, tell the assistant to turn coming-soon mode off. Logged-in administrators always see the real site, so you can keep previewing your work the whole time.

Outcome

A branded coming-soon page is ready on your site, and coming-soon mode turns on only after you review and approve it.
