This code is a WordPress plugin (can also be added in the functions.php file) that creates a maintenance mode page when activated.
No setup needed, just copy and paste !
When the plugin is active, it checks if the current user is not an administrator (using the current_user_can() function with the 'manage_options' parameter). If the current user is not an administrator, WordPress will display a message on the front end of the site stating that the site is under maintenance
Overall, this code is a useful tool for WordPress site administrators who need to perform maintenance tasks on their site without disrupting the user experience for regular visitors.
