The maintenance message will be displayed in the frontend based on the configuration. Message can be displayed all the time until it is disabled, or it can be scheduled to display within a time interval. Admin will be able to select message type as HTML / TEXT and then style / design it based on the need. 

Configure the message type as TEXT, and then customize the message using the fields such as Message, Font Color and Maintenance Banner Icon accordingly. After configuring the fields, the maintenance message will appear in the frontend like below. 

For Hyvä Theme 

Configure the message type as HTML. The maintenance message can then be prepared, styled and saved in HTML format with the help of WYSIWYG editor. After saving the configurations, the maintenance message will appear in the frontend like below. 

For Hyvä Themes 

Note: Use Tailwind CSS classes with Hyvä theme for consistent styling. Basic HTML element styles will work with other themes unless overridden. 

Time interval configuration allows the display of the maintenance message within a time slot. The Time Interval option can be enabled by setting the dropdown value to Yes and then configuring the datetimes in the Start Time and End Time fields, during which the maintenance message will be displayed. If the date and time are outside the Start Time and End Time, then the message will not be visible in the frontend. This gives you the flexibility to configure the maintenance message earlier and display it without manually enabling it at the time.
