Chapter 3: Enabling and configuring ComingSoon

In the admin panel of ComingSoon, you will only see two tabs – Settings and Subscribers.

Let’s start with the first part of the Settings tab by Enabling the module.

Allow Admin – this field allows you to enable or disable whether administrators will be able

to access the store while it’s down for maintenance. This means they will see what the store

currently looks like in its developing form, bypassing the Coming Soon page that visitors will

see.

Heading Title – the heading title sets the headline of your Coming soon page (H1). This is the

main message that newcomers will see.

Sub Title – the sub title appears below the heading title and serves as additional information

about the status of your store.

Notify Text – this field can be used to invite visitors to leave their name and email address to

learn more about your store, when it will launch or any other details you would like to share.

Button Text – this is the Call-to-Action button that users have to click in order to submit

their name and email address.

Countdown Date – set the date when your website will be launched and available.

Time Intervals – set the measurement unit you want for the countdown. You can choose

between conventional Days, Weeks, Months and Years, or more excentric Decades,

Centuries, or Millennia.

Background Image – this will be the background image for the entire page.

Logo Image – set the logo of your store so that visitors are sure where they are.

Text Color – this field lets you set the single text color for the entire ComingSoon page.

Social Links – add the URLs to the social media profiles of your OpenCart store so that

visitors can find you easily. The module integrates Facebook, Twitter, Google + and YouTube.

The About page allows you to create a secondary page that will appear as a popup when

opened, leaving the Coming Soon page as a background.

Link Text – the link to the About page can be customized with a message of your choice.

About Text – this is the main text that will serve as additional information about you, your

store, the launch date, what customers can expect. You can use this for unique details about

your story, what lead you to opening your store, or give some teasing information about

future products.

The final part of the Settings tab of ComingSoon lets you include your contact information

such as email address your visitors can send you emails, phone number or physical address.
