      • Offline for Maintenance Option

        Making changes to a live application can cause problems. I'm suggesting a new application settings option to temporary disable all access to an app so the admin or developer can make changes without any user interference. Additionally, while the app is offline, there should be some ability to present the users with a customized notification page (perhaps a view within the app itself). For example, "This application is undergoing maintenance and will be back online Sunday at 5 PM. Please email smith@net.com

      • Is it possible to set a default field value in a Layout Rule?
