<p>You can add a template called <code>503.html</code> to your <code>/templates</code> folder. Craft will then use that template whenever the system is turned off, due to the HTTP status being set to <code>503</code> (service unavailable).</p>

<p>Inside the <code>503.html</code> template, you can of course include another template (e.g. <code>blog/post</code>).</p>

<p>I've set Craft offline (System status). Is it possible to "open" one specific URL route so it can be accessed even though the website is offline?</p>

(Asked by: username_0 on 2016-02-09)

I've set Craft offline (System status). Is it possible to "open" one specific URL route so it can be accessed even though the website is offline?

For example the route: `/blog/post`

**Tags:** routes, system-status

You can add a template called `503.html` to your `/templates` folder. Craft will then use that template whenever the system is turned off, due to the HTTP status being set to `503` (service unavailable).

Inside the `503.html` template, you can of course include another template (e.g. `blog/post`).
