LightStart – Maintenance Mode, Coming Soon and Landing Page Builder

My isssue (which I’m currently waiting for help with)- is that it broke my Woocommerce/Divi Shop. The Maintenance Mode is still active on my Homepage even after deactivating Lightstart.
I’m sure it will work for you once you study the documentation. It isn’t easy for beginners.

Not fond of having another Plugin added automatically, but I deleted that.
I may change my review if I ever get help or a solution.

The actual plugin I wanted to use worked fine but it installed two other plugins – an image optimization plugin and some other plugin called Otter. No prompts, notification or nothing. Very sketch.

LightStart is a great addition to any WordPress site if you’re looking for a lightweight, reliable, and easy-to-use solution. It installs quickly, works smoothly without slowing down performance, and offers practical customization options that are simple to configure even for non-technical users. I particularly appreciate how clean and efficient it is — no unnecessary bloat, no conflicts with themes or plugins, and consistent performance throughout. It’s a dependable plugin that delivers exactly what it promises and is ideal for anyone who values speed, simplicity, and stability in their WordPress setup.

Very helpful.

I was checking out maintenance plugins and tried this one. Forced install of a page builder and image optimizer without asking. Who knows what else it has done without asking.
