XF 1.1 How to temporary switch off the xenForo instance?

[Marco Famà]

Dear all
my hosting provider requires my forum to be switched off temporarly, as the domain needs to be migrated to a more performing server.

Can you please tell me if there's a kind-of "Maintenance mode" for xenForo, so that I can freeze new threads /posts creation in the meanwhile?

Thanks a lot my friends
Marco

There's an option in the ACP to turn the forums off (i.e. lock them)

Thanks Rob!
