If you have browsed many Internet sites, you've probably encountered some error message now and again. An error could occur when the hosting server can't process a request (Error 400), if you must log in so that you can see some content and you have not done so (Error 401), if you aren't able to access a page (Error 403) or when a link leads to a file that isn't on the web server (Error 404). Encountering this type of messages may often be frustrating as the pages don't have anything in common with the actual website. That’s why some website hosting providers allow you to set your own error pages that will match the design of your own website and which may have any content that you want - information why the error has occurred, a suggestion what you can do or even some witty comment. This kind of function will help you keep the visitor on the website irrespective of the error or the reason for it.

Custom Error Pages in Hosting

The customized error pages function is offered with each and every hosting plan which we offer and you shall be able to substitute all of the generic pages with your own with no more than a couple of clicks from your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. You will need to produce 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 every single website hosted inside the account independently, so that each set of customized pages shall have the same design and style as the Internet site it is part of. When necessary, you could always go back to a default page from our system or to the default Apache server page. One other way to set personalized 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 could simply copy the needed program code from our Help article about this.
