How to customize 404 page. Thank you.

It's easy:

Create a page.
Go to "Settings" > "General" > "Advanced" and enter the name of the page in the field "Page not found".

Hello Edi,

There is not fancy with 404 error page, I customized the template I used, I add author info box and etc to the page, Also the page shows in the menu!
Is there any way to redirect to the HTML page?

Best Regards,
Abdulhalim

just use apache's error document handler, and point to a static html with below command:

Code: Select all

ErrorDocument 404 /404.html

Thank you, Jay

I put it into htaccess file, but it doesn't work, I think it needs to edit some of php file to redirect properly.

I should guess, that easiest methods doesn't work in general.
Basically you should check your access log, and see if the 404.html document is found in the path you use once you hit a "404 - page not found".
Otherwise try with one of below :

Code: Select all

ErrorDocument 404 /absolute/path/to/html/document/on/your/webhost/account/404.html

or

Code: Select all

ErrorDocument 404 http://yourdomain/404.html

try to put this handler before bludit's rewrite commands, as it's more important than cms redirects which ends with [L] (it means, that once they're hit, htaccess won't check further commands)

ps. I assume your webhosting provider uses apache webserwer, or at least has a port of htaccess directives interpreter.

Thank you, Jay

I used this command before, but this time it doesn't work, also I want to redirect from HTTPS to HTTP, this command doesn't work! but for non-www to www, it's OK.

Maybe there is an issue related to my server.

Thank you anyway

You can add a condition to the navigation, that excludes the 404 error page. Is it a normal or a static page?

it's a static page, how can I do that?

Using the theme Blekathlon you can modify the loop with the titles in the file aside.php (in the directory /bl-themes/blekathlon/php) as follows if the slug of your error page is for example "error-404" (line 39):

Code: Select all

                        <?php foreach ($staticContent as $staticPage) : ?>
                        	<?php if ($staticPage->slug() != "error-404") { ?>
                        	<li class="menu-item">
                        	    <a href="<?php echo $staticPage->permalink(); ?>">
                        	        <?php echo $staticPage->title(); ?>
                        	    </a>
                        	</li>
                            <?php } ?>
                        <?php endforeach ?>

instead of

Code: Select all

                        <?php foreach ($staticContent as $staticPage) : ?>
                        	<li class="menu-item">
                        	    <a href="<?php echo $staticPage->permalink(); ?>">
                        	        <?php echo $staticPage->title(); ?>
                        	    </a>
                        	</li>
                        <?php endforeach ?>
