As a Genesis user, I really like the idea of a dedicated plugin for this framework. I’d like the developer to keep updating the compatibility of this plugin but that is something even StudioPress don’t do very often. Please, keep this plugin alive!

Thank you for your work and efforts on this plugin. I think meets a need. However, it doesn´t feel quite ready yet. In the settings: Page to show, you may choose between one of your pages on the website (but it does only show the home page) or choose Coming Soon settings below. But those settings below does not contain any options for text content. You can´t write a message in the Coming Soon mode. At least as far as I can see. It will only take the name of the site as the message. Nothing more. And if you choose an existing page it will show the full homepage, as said. Then the point with a coming soon page is lost. If it would show a special page without the header, the navigation, and the footer, it might work. In Coming Soon mode I think it needs a message option and some way to edit CSS for the message. I tried Genesis Coming Soon in a multisite environment. And it worked. And I would like to see the options described added to this plugin. Then it will compete with more elaborate solutions that are mainly not free.
