ShabbatMode
Automatic website scheduling for Shabbat and Jewish holidays. Your sites go offline and come back on their own - no manual work needed.
What is Shabbat Mode?
Shabbat Mode automatically takes your websites offline before Shabbat and Jewish holidays, and brings them back online afterward. It follows the Israeli holiday calendar and adjusts for candle-lighting times in your location.
Instead of a blank page, visitors see a custom Shabbat page explaining when the site will return. A live countdown shows exactly how much time is left until the site is back online.
