404 Error

home >> you >> tutorials

Have you ever seen those annoying pages that pop up that say "An error has occured because..." or something like that? Well this tutorial is going to teach you how to make a custom 404error page! If you would like to see what a custom 404error page looks like, you can see mine, by clicking here! If you would like to use an image, like I do, I have made some for you here! If you still need help after this tutorial, feel free to contact me!

STEP 1 // Creating the error page
Don't put the word "error", it makes viewers think they did something wrong.
Make it so it matches the rest of your site and is attractive.
Link back to your site.
Upload this page to your main directory and name it "404error.html"


STEP 2 // Linking to the error page
Paste the following code into notepad.


Make sure the E and D are capitalized and there are 2 spaces before 404.
Change WWW.YOURSITE.COM to whatever your site is.


STEP 3 // Finishing
Name the file you just created .htaccess
Upload to your main directory.
