A
404 page is an
error page that
displays when someone tries to access a page on your
website that doesn't exist.
Our hosting accounts
allow you to use your home page as your
404 page, or you can
create a custom one.
NOTE: To use a
customized 404
error page, you
must first upload a custom page to your hosting
account, and then enter the full URL to your 404
Page Designation settings.
Our
404 redirects use IIS. Certain programming languages such as ColdFusion and
ASP.NET have their own methods of handling
404
errors, rather than
allowing IIS to handle the redirect. |
To Set Up Your Custom
404 Page
- Log in to your
Account Manager.
- From the My Products section
on the left,
click Hosting.
- Next to the hosting account you want to use,
click Launch.
- In the
Settings section of the Hosting Control
Center, click the
404
Error Behavior
icon.
- To edit the 404
error page
preference for your hosting account, select one
of the error-page
options:
Use Home Page
Use Custom Page (enter absolute link)
Use Palace Wizard's Default 404 Error Page
- Click Continue.
- Review and verify your
404
error page
preferences. If everything looks OK, click
Submit.
NOTE: Links in the
404 page must be
absolute, e.g. http://www.yoursite.com/page.html or
else they will break when clicked from the
404 page. |
