## تفصیل

"Go Dark” is a general-purpose, SEO-friendly utility that allows you to easily take
your website offline (blackout) in protest of political issues, climate advocacy,
net neutrality, censorship opposition, or other custom causes.

When your website is "dark”, it returns a `503 Service Temporarily Unavailable` 
HTTP status code. This informs search engines that the offline state is temporary,
preserving your SEO rankings, and provides browsers with a `Retry-After` header.

### Live Demo

Try the plugin instantly in your browser using [WordPress Playground](https://playground.wordpress.net/?blueprint=https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/go-dark/trunk/blueprint.json)

#### Features

 * **Flexible Status Modes**: Keep the plugin inactive, schedule a precise start/
   end blackout window, or force dark mode active immediately.
 * **Modern Premium Themes**: Choose from three highly polished design presets:
    1. _Minimalist Blackout_: A sleek, modern dark mode design with custom glow accents.
    2. _Glassmorphism Alert_: A stunning backdrop-blurred glass card over vibrant ambient
       glowing shapes.
    3. _Classic Protest_: An updated typewriter aesthetic utilizing a dark wood texture.
 * **Cause Presets**: Quick-load templates for Net Neutrality, Climate Action, censorship
   opposition, and standard maintenance.
 * **Interactive Live Countdown**: Real-time Javascript-powered countdown clock 
   showing visitors exactly when your website will return.
 * **WordPress Media Library Integration**: Directly upload or select custom logos
   and images to display on the splash page.
 * **Call to Action**: Insert custom URLs and labels (e.g. to sign a petition or
   learn more).
