No site preview & Dashboard Panel Missing
Permalink
Hello,
I have been working with Concrete5 on and off for about a month now. I have a couple of questions.
I enabled maintenance mode for my site hoping that I could continue working on it while it was offline to the public. Unfotunately, when I clicked return to site from the dashboard it says " the site is down for maintenance". I thought enabling maintenance mode would still allow me to continuing modifying the site privately. Is this correct?
Also, because I enabled maintenance mode. When I tried to log back into my site as the administrator. It took me back to the "The site is currently down for maintenance message" without the dashboard. I found another thread that suggested I type:
site.com/index.php/dashboard
to get back to my dashboard. It worked but should Concrete5 allow an admin to go directly to the dashboard without typing the above?
Thanks

use the admin account while in maintenance mode, not just an account that happens to be in the administrator group, but rather that first account, user ID=1..
Thanks for the reply frz. I have only two users: 1)admin, 2) user to test a client login page I'm setting up. I am always logging in as the admin. Not sure why its not operating as expected
