Hi!

Did see the same blank page error here:
http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/maintenance-editor/foru...

They uninstalled the "Maintenance Mode add-on" and the use the default one

I can't edit it when I have the regular maintenance mode enabled.

Hello,
The Maintenance Editor add-on should not be used with the default concrete5 maintenance mode. I wonder if that is what is giving you trouble. If you still are having issues after disabling the default concrete5 maintenance mode open a support ticket and we'll see if we can track it down.

Regards,
Mike

I tried using the editor addon and it shows a blank page with the c5 hand in the top left corner. I removed the addon and enabled the built in maintanance mode and I get the default page coming up fine, but I can't get to the pages on my site so I can edit them. It's like the permissions are set to be no one can acces during maintanance, even those with admin logins. I don't know if there are settings for this or not though.

The default maintenance mode that comes with concrete5 does not have those options. That is why I created Maintenance Editor in the first place. If you want some help sorting out why Maintenance Editor is causing and error(likely a collision with another addon) open up a support ticket or pm me an ftp and c5 login and I'll see why it is failing.

Best Regards,
Mike

First of all, For maintenance mode you have to go dashboard->system & settings
then Permissions & Access -> Maintenance Mode.....enabled this feature...you are done

please uninstall the add-on you have already installed for maintenance mode....because there is inbuilt features of "maintenance mode" in concrete 5

don't hesitate to ask any problem...thanks

Just wanted to follow-up and see if this issue has been resolved as I'm getting the same thing.

I have Disabled the default System & Settings > Maintenance Mode, and Enable the Maintenance editor. If I log-out I get a Blank concrete bar at the top and no errors show on the console log!(see attached) If I re-Enable the System & Settings > Maintenance Mode the maintenance_mode.php page displays correctly.

The only way I was able to resolve it was to uninstall the add-on.

The blank page means you are getting an error. Unfortunately, everyone I've asked for more information beyond "I got a blank screen" has decided not to provide it, so we haven't been able to track down the bug. If you could provide me with a login or some more information, I can try and track it down.

Mk,

So I was able to get PHP Storm setup and run XDebuger. Here is a screen shot of the error that shows up. This is happing with a clean version of concrete5 and Installing Maintenance Editor. So here is the other catch, this is only happing on the 'Green Salad Theme' that comes with Concrete5 and my custom theme. It does not happen on the other themes. I will start to disable things on my theme and see if I find what's causing this issue. On the other hand, I hope this info helps a bit more then just a 'blank screen'!.

PROBLEM SOLVED!!

So let just start by saying 'Its always the simplest thing that we over look at'. The problem was I had a 'home.php' in my theme, and so does the Green Salad theme that comes with Concrete5. Once I renamed it to something else (such as 'landingpage.php') and cleared the cache with-in concrete5 it worked just fine.

Solution:
Rename 'home.php' to 'landingpage.php' (or anything else you wish!)

Thanks

Wow, this is awesome troubleshooting. Thank you so much. I'm going to sit down this weekend and get to the bottom of why there is an issue with home.php and come up with a patch. Seriously, great help.

Best Regards,
Mike
