If you have browsed lots of sites, you have probably come across some error message from time to time. An error can occur in case the web server cannot process a request (Error 400), if you need to log in so that you can see some content and you haven't done so (Error 401), if you aren't able to access some page (Error 403) or when a link leads to a file which is not on the server (Error 404). Getting such messages may often be annoying as the pages have nothing in common with the actual Internet site. That’s why some web hosting providers permit you to use your own error pages which will match the design of your own Internet site and that may have any content which you'd like - details why the error has occurred, a suggestion how to proceed or even some amusing remark. Such a function will help you keep the visitor on the website no matter the error and the reason for it.
Custom Error Pages in Website Hosting
The custom made error pages feature is provided with every website hosting plan that we offer and you shall be able to substitute the generic pages with your own with no more than a few clicks inside your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. You'll have to produce the actual files and to upload them to your account, then to set them for a particular domain or subdomain using the Hosted Domains section of the Hepsia Control Panel. You may do this for every single site hosted in the account independently, so that every group of custom made pages shall have the same style and design as the website it's part of. If required, you can always revert back to a default page from our system or to the default Apache server page. Another way to set customized 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 could simply copy the needed code from our Help article about this.
