Just installed 4 and it is all working, but I cannot readily locate the close storefront option that v 2/v3 has.I do not want the store to be visible to search engines until ready, so how can I close it as was possible with other previous versions?

Just found it hidden in general
Thanks, I couldnt find it either. Probably good they hid it, I had staff member accidentally turn our store off once. After that, I tightened up Admin privileges.
Hi i've installed CS-Cart 4.1.4 on localhost, its opening fine via http://localhost/cscart but i receive store closed for maintinaince message when accessing through http://127.0.0.1/cscart , please help.
I had this problem also. I have a mirrored site and a test site for each of my 5 stores. I backup the databases via cron jobs and then download and restore them once a week to my test server.
The problem is that Version 4 stores the url of your store in the database.
The solution is to use phpmyadmin, go into your database and look for the cscart_companies table. Use Inline Edit and scroll to the right to get to the storefront and secure_storefront fields. You will see that the url from your live store is stored in these 2 fields. Change them to the url of your test store and save.
You should then be able to “open” the storefront.
Hope this helps, it works for me.
Thanks
Now facing another problem, it displays “site front closed” even when accessing admin.php
I have resolved it, sessions table was crashed actually, fixed after repairing it.
