This will result in 'no cart' options at all. I'm not sure though if you can switch back and forth without any consequenses, so you should best test this with a copy of the site. --- Cheers, Maurice Last edit: 7 years 10 months ago by [webcase](/forum/user/53711-webcase "View webcase's Profile").

You can also add the code: <?php echo 'Store in maintenance'; return; ?> at the beginning of the file "show" of the view "checkout" via the menu Display>Views. that will remove the checkout interfaces. The advantage is that you'll be able to use the cart/wishlist while with the catalogue mode, you won't. Last edit: 7 years 10 months ago by [nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile").
