How to customise the maintenance page?

Robert

Hmm I'll see if I can so something with apache in a similar way. This seems like something nodebb can expand on

julian

@Kowlin What do you mean? You can already customise the maintenance page by modifying the template.

If you get the page served by nginx, then nodebb is DOWN and there isn't anything NodeBB can do about that!

@julian this is why I need to not take breaks from software I follow. I'll just end up being confused what in talking about

Henry Wright

@Kowlin with Apache you can set the ErrorDocument directive in your .htaccess doc

NICE WORK!

@psychobunny I'd say he's earned us a gist!

julian

@henrywright Yep, you found it

@drew so, where do we get that sexy 502 page now?

psychobunny

lmao @henrywright congrats. It wasn't that awesome of an easter egg but glad you found the secret message haha!

Excuse the lowsy coding, IIRC I had a non-wager bet with @julian about being able to build a cool 502 page in under 10 minutes

EDIT:

I have two major ones I'm fixing for Monday

I only took down the forum a few times today for seconds tops, so seriously, how many times did you spam f5 today? XD

I'd love to say that's where my screenshot came from but spending the day spamming F5 is closer to the mark

Thanks for the Gist. Those animations...
