Custom Error Pages
Find out more about website error pages, when they appear and why you ought to use customized error pages.
If you have checked out lots of Internet sites, you have probably encountered some error message now and again. An error could take place if the web server cannot process a request (Error 400), if you have to log in so that you can see some content and you haven't done so (Error 401), if you are not allowed to access a webpage (Error 403) or when a link leads to a file which isn't on the server (Error 404). Receiving this sort of messages could sometimes be frustrating since the pages have nothing in common with the actual website. That’s why some website hosting providers permit you to set your own error pages that will match the design of your own site and which could have any content which you'd like - information why the error has appeared, a suggestion how to proceed or even some witty remark. This type of feature will help you keep the visitor on the site no matter the error or the reason for it.

Custom Error Pages in Shared Website Hosting
The custom error pages feature is provided with each
shared website hosting plan that we offer and you shall be able to replace all of the generic pages with your own with no more than a couple of clicks inside your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. You will need 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 CP. You could do this for each website hosted in the account individually, so that each set of customized pages will have the very same style and design as the Internet site it is part of. When necessary, you may always go back to a default page from our system or to the default Apache server page. One other way to set customized error pages is to create an .htaccess file inside the domain/subdomain root folder and to add a few lines in it. If you have not done this before, you could simply copy the required program code from our Help article about this.
