If you have checked out loads of websites, you've probably stumbled upon some error message every now and then. An error could take place when the website hosting server cannot process a request (Error 400), if you must log in in order to see some content and you haven't done so (Error 401), if you are not able to access a webpage (Error 403) or when a link leads to a file which isn't on the server (Error 404). Getting such messages can sometimes be aggravating as the pages have absolutely nothing in common with the actual site. That’s why some hosting service providers allow you to use your own error pages that'll match the design of your own site and that can have any content which you want - details why the error has appeared, a suggestion what you can do or even some funny comment. Such a function will help you keep the visitor on the site no matter the error and the reason for it.

Custom Error Pages in Cloud Hosting

The custom made error pages feature is provided with each and every cloud hosting package which we offer and you shall be able to swap all the generic pages with your own with no more than a few clicks from your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. You shall need to create the actual files and to upload them to your account, and then to set them for a specific domain or subdomain from the Hosted Domains section of the Hepsia CP. You could do this for each and every website hosted in the account individually, so that every group of customized pages shall have the very same design and style as the site it is part of. If required, you could always revert back to a default page from our system or to a default Apache server page. A different way to set custom made error pages is to create an .htaccess file in 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 needed program code from our Help article about this.

Custom Error Pages in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Adding your pages for each of the four error types to any website hosted from a semi-dedicated server account with us will be really simple and will not take more than a couple of clicks. After you upload the files to your account, you could go to the Hosted Domains section of your Hepsia Control Panel and edit the domains and subdomains listed there using an intuitive interface with drop-down navigation. You can select what page should appear for each and every error type. Your choices are a default Apache web server page or a page from our system, and custom pages. Should you pick the last option, you will need to input the link to every single page in your account, then save the change. The link or the sort of page that will appear when a user encounters an error can be modified whenever you want. If you're more experienced, you may use an .htaccess file so as to set tailor-made error pages too, instead of using our integrated generator software instrument, and if you choose this option, the file has to be located in the root directory of a specific domain or subdomain.
