safeairone Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 I'm running osCommerce v2.2 RC2 through HostGator hosting. How can I change from the default HostGator 404 page to a customized 404 page? HostGator tech support chat person said to just add " ErrorDocument 404 /index.php " to the top of the .htaccess file (I originally asked about redirecting to my homepage). Even doing this, I still got the HostGator default 404 page and wasn't redirected to my site's homepage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

♥geoffreywalton Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 I believe with hostgator they have an area on the admin panel where you can design a personal 404 and other error pages in a text editor. If I remember correctly is creates an .shtml page which you can download and edit and replace.

Collines Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 Create you custom 404 page and then add one of these lines to .htaccess in the root folder. ErrorDocument 404 http://www.yourdomain.com/custom404.htm or ErrorDocument 404 /custom404.htm Change 'custom404.htm to whatever you call your custom page. This works on most servers.
