More versatility with user suspension pages

Vanessa Vasile shared this idea 10 years ago
Open Discussion

At present, suspension requests are sent through a CGI script (/cgi-sys/suspendedpage.cgi) which renders the HTML page displayed to the end user. The issue with this is that high-traffic sites can continue to use excessive resources due to the behavior of this process, and it offers little control for the administrator.

So as a system administrator, I would like the ability to choose the behavior of suspended websites. This would ideally be selectable from the following options:

a) Render the template (existing behavior)

b) Redirect to a URL

c) Pipe the request to a script

d) Respond with a code (401, 403, 404, etc)

After the request is piped into a script, what should we serve as the response?
