FAQ
When the plugin is active it kills my Theme Options page. This was due to an oversight in the UUC-Script.js file. This has been fixed and updating to the most recent version of my plugin should fix the issue.
How do I log in once I have activated the Under Construction page? You will need to navigate directly to the wp-login page. To do this navigate to www.yoursite.com/wp-login.php.
When I deactivate the plugin it doesn’t turn off? This will be a caching issue.
FlipClock doesn’t load? This has been fixed in v1.7. Please update.
