How to temporarily take down your Online Store with a Closed message?

Hi! When closing your website is there a way to put a message why it’s closing the site? I’m reopening it later I just think it would be easier to leave a message

Hey @radiantbeauty,

We don't necessarily offer something like this aside from just un-publishing the store at this time.

I can see how that would be useful and it's a request Weebly has seen before so I will let them know you're another seller asking about it.

That is a very good question. We close Jan-April. It would be nice to shut down the store with a "Closed for Season" message!

@MichiganFarmsta @radiantbeauty @ashc

So we're a seasonal shop, and we just turn off Pickup Orders, remove our hours, and we add a text box to the top of our page explaining that we're temporarily closed because we're seasonal. Super easy!

Here's what it looks like:

We took our page down and now I can't figure out how to open it back up. HELP!

Your website doesn't seem to be down, @LaCocinita!

If you're referring to the pop-up you added that states Temporarily Closed, you can remove this by heading to your Square Online overview page > Website > Pop-ups > scroll down to CREATED POP-UPS. I hope this helps!
