If you have browsed lots of Internet sites, you've probably stumbled upon some error message once in a while. An error can occur in case the hosting server cannot process a request (Error 400), if you have to log in so as to see some content and you have not done so (Error 401), if you are not able to access a webpage (Error 403) or if a link leads to a file that isn't on the web server (Error 404). Getting such messages may often be annoying since the pages don't have anything in common with the actual site. That’s why some web hosting providers permit you to apply your own error pages which will match the layout of your own site and that may have any content that you'd like - details why the error has taken place, a suggestion what you can do or even some humorous comment. This type of function can help you keep the visitor on the website regardless of the error or the reason for it.

Custom Error Pages in Shared Hosting

The custom made error pages feature is offered with every single shared hosting package deal we offer and you'll be able to swap all of the generic pages with your own with no more than just a few clicks from your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel. You will have to develop the actual files and to upload them to your account, then to set them for a given domain or subdomain from the Hosted Domains section of the Hepsia Control Panel. You can easily do this for every website hosted inside the account independently, so that every set of custom made pages will have the same layout as the website it's part of. When necessary, you can always go back to a default page from our system or to a default Apache server page. Another way to set customized error pages is to create an .htaccess file inside the domain/subdomain root folder and to include a few lines in it. If you haven't done this before, you may simply copy the necessary program code from our Help article about this.

Custom Error Pages in Semi-dedicated Hosting

When you host your websites in a semi-dedicated server account from our company, you may set customized error pages for each of them easily through our in-house made Hepsia hosting Control Panel. With a few mouse clicks inside the Hosted Domains section, you can edit the default setting from a system page to a customized one for any of the 4 error types. All you need to do is supply a link to each and every file that you've uploaded before that and then save the change. If needed, you will be able to revert this customization at any time and in exactly the same way. If you'd like, you may use an .htaccess file too. It should be created/uploaded inside the domain or subdomain folder related to the internet site whose error pages you want to modify and the content for such a file can be found in our Help article about this matter.
