This module is not intended to be a remote kill for a client's site. If that is what you need, take a look at killswitch.
What does Lockout do?
This module displays a generic off line page with a message indicating that the site owner should contact technical support. The idea being similar to cPanel's "suspended account" page. Additionally, this module should be used in a similar environment. For example, I build websites for clients and host these sites on my server. They pay me on a recurring basis for the hosting. If they become delinquent in payments and fail to respond to emails or calls, I use this as my last resort to get their attention.
How do I use Lockout?
While logged in as "User 1" visit the lockout settings page, Administration > Configuration > System > Lockout, tick the box and save. While set, one can still access the /user and /admin* sections. This will allows "User 1" to log in again and turn off Lockout.
Doesn't the core maintenance mode do the same thing?
Need to use a higher version of jQuery for your module or theme than the one provided by Drupal/jQuery Update?
jQuery Multi allows you to load an extra version of the jQuery library in parallel to Drupal's version, without conflicting with Drupal's version. You can then choose any JavaScript library or files to use the new version of jQuery. No need to alter packaged jQuery plugins!
The Profile picture changer module allows users to change their profile picture through a modal form directly on their profile page, without having to go to the profile edit form.
