Not having a vacation option in Shopify, this application solves the problem. John has been a great help in assisting me with every step and solving all my questions. Highly recommend.

Not so great: The app was free. I got on vacation with magical vacation mode. In the middle of my vacation in August the App was deactivated because now it’s $5 per month.

FANTASTISCH!
Endlich ein Ferienmodus für Shopify, bei dem alle Produkte sichtbar bleiben :-)

Wenn die Option "inline message" ausgewählt wird, werden keine google fonts aus US-Servern geladen (bei der Pop-Up-Funktin allerings schon).

Der Kundneservice ist megaschnell und freundlich, und hat bei einem glitch bedingt durch mein altes theme schnell geholfen, so dass jetzt alles klappt.
Daumen hoch!

Neat app, super handy, makes it really easy to put your shop in vacation mode while customers can still explore the shop. Easy access to vacation mode variable through Liquid. Thank you!

Great app that does exactly what it should do. The support is very fast and very friendly, and even helped us with some custom modifications!

This is a very, very useful app for Shopify, and it's completely free, at least for now. Finally a tool with which you can temporarily (or longer) block the sale of products without having to "hide" your entire shop. This can be helpful for many small companies if, for example, the entire work cannot be done due to illness.
The app works immediately and flawlessly. You can add an additional popup where customers can register during the "closure". The good thing is that this email registration is linked to "Shopify email", so that the "double opt-in" (DOI) works, which is mandatory in the EU.
The display of this popup was previously in english. Thanks to a mega top hammer SUPPORT, this has been changed, at least for German-speaking shops, so that the ad is now available in German. The app does this automatically if the shop has the language "German". So: A useful little app with fast, good support. We recommend !

Das ist eine sehr, sehr nützliche App für Shopify und zumindest im Moment noch komplett kostenfrei. Endlich ein Tool, womit man den Verkauf von Produkten vorrübergehend (oder länger) sperren kann, ohne dass man seinen gesamten Shop "ausblenden" muss. Das kann für viele kleine Firmen hilfreich sein, wenn z.B. Krankheit die gesamte Arbeit flach legt. Die App funktioniert sofort und einwandfrei. Man kann ein zusätzliches Popup dazu schalten, wo die Kunden sich während der "Schließung" eintragen können. Das gute daran ist, dass diese E-Mail-Eintragung an "Shopify-E-Mail" gekoppelt ist, sodass das "Double-Opt-In" (DOI) funktioniert, was in der EU ja Pflicht ist. Die Anzeige dieses Pupups war bisher in englischer Sprache. Dank einem Mege-Spitzen-Hammer-SUPPORT wurde dies zumindes für deutschsprachige Shops so geändert, dass nun die Anzeige in deutscher Sprache vorliegt. Das macht die App automatisch, wenn der Shop die Sprache deutsch hat. Also: Eine nützliche kleine App mit einem schnellen, guten Support. SEHR zu EMPFEHLEN !

We need to put our store “Brand Name Lighting” on hold a few times a year. Only for a very short time when we are testing inventory feeds, etc. Shopify gives you two options:

1) Password protect. Not good, as we will loose all the SEO we worked so hard to get and current customers won’t be able to login.
2) Change plan to “Pause and Build”. Problem is that this option did not allow us to put the store on hold right away, only when our current plan expires (almost in a month). Customer support was very good, opening a ticket with the billing department, etc. But we can’t have this hassle every time we need to put our Shopify store on vacation mode.

This app was the right solution! Installed in seconds, the owner has video tutorials in the setup section giving you step by step instructions! So easy! Removes the checkout icon from the top of the page and removes the “add to cart” buttons. You can customize everything! Including adding a “vacation mode” custom image, all the text and colors.

Very happy with this app! If you need LED lighting and electrical supplies, you go to Brand Name Lighting (https://brandnamelighting.com/). If you need a very good “Vacation” app that works without bugs, you go to Magical Vacation Mode.

Great option for Shopify owners for vacation mode. With their help, they (Bhanu, Arnold and John) were able to customize my shop so that I didn’t need to put my shop on pause. Now, my store remains active to browse and my checkout is disabled for the period I choose to not take orders. I absolutely love it!
