Very interesting, thanks @Burt, isn't there a solution that with the shop closed the customer can only see the items without being able to buy? thank you

If you want to disable checkout, you should look in the header_tag module, where you will find this (twice):
Code: Select all
if (basename($PHP_SELF) != 'closed.php') {
and change to:
Code: Select all
if (basename($PHP_SELF) == 'checkout_shipping.php') {
The system will now redirect to closed.php when they hit checkout_shipping.php.

Thanks for the latest update.
I cant see why an online shop would want to close?
Not moaning, just asking a question as curious to learn.

It would be very useful for a shop where online ordering is available part-time (eg a pizza or fried chicken shop).
I.e. in shops where they deliver immediately (probably locally). And yes, I've ordered pizza (delivered) and sandwiches (for pickup) that way. At a guess, he has a single client who has this particular need and so has filled it.
If you primarily deliver via mail order, it probably won't be helpful to you as is. A similar mod, that instead of closing the whole store, just showed a "currently closed" or "open for walkins" message might be useful.

With some coding attention, it could also be used for something else, for example some shops have "online chat" between 9am and 5pm monday to friday.

I know of one company here in the Netherlands, that has it's website closed on sundays because of religious reasons.
Yes, the website is closed on sundays. This is not a typo. :-)
