While scouring the internet trying to find a good solution for going away for a few days, I learned about Magical Vacation Mode in the Shopify Forums. I certainly am glad that I gave it a try. The app did exactly what I needed it to...let my visitors know that they can look at my items but not purchase until my return. There was also an option for them to request a notification when I reopened. When I installed the app, I quickly received a note from a human asking if I needed help setting it up! While I didn't, it was easy, it was nice that someone was there if I needed them. When I returned, it was painless to go back to selling. I can't recommend this service enough, it solves a problem that enables me to take time off without the worry.

This is exactly what we needed! It allows customers to still browse the store without being able to place an order. I like that the messaging pops up with an email capture, too.

Everything looked good doing it myself but since we are using a vintage Shopify theme, I was unable to do inline messaging. Jeff the developer stepped in quickly and put in some code to really customize our message. Easy to use and implement, would fully recommend for anyone looking for an app to close their store for a brief period.

I cannot believe Shopify does not have a vacation setting, but for a mere $5 per year (that's right, not per month ... $5 per year) this app made it super easy. Actually the tech support made it super easy. I took them up on the offer to set up the app for me with a simple email, and after just a few quick email exchanges they set it all up for me! Could not have been easier. I'm so grateful.
