If you have checked out loads of websites, you've probably come across some error message now and again. An error may take place if the hosting server can't 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 aren't permitted to access a page (Error 403) or when a link leads to a file that isn't on the hosting server (Error 404). Encountering this type of messages could often be annoying because the pages have absolutely nothing in common with the actual Internet site. That’s why some website hosting providers allow you to set your own error pages which will match the layout of your own website and which may have any content that you want - details why the error has taken place, a suggestion how to proceed or even some witty remark. This type of function will help you keep the visitor on the website irrespective of the error or the reason for it.

Custom Error Pages in Web Hosting

You will be able to set up customized error pages for all of your Internet sites with ease if you use any of our web hosting. This can easily be done using the Hosted Domains part of the Hepsia Control Panel, provided with all accounts and once you go there, you could set your personalized pages independently for any domain or subdomain. You must upload the files to your account ahead of time and enter the links to them during the process. This feature could be de-activated anytime and the options you will be able to select from are a standard page from our system or a default Apache web server page. Custom made error pages could be set with an .htaccess file too. The file should be placed in the domain or subdomain folder and it must include some system code and links to the pages. If you're not tech-savvy, you may copy the whole content necessary for the file from our Help section.

Custom Error Pages in Semi-dedicated Servers

All semi-dedicated servers that we supply support customized error pages and it shall not take more than a couple of mouse clicks inside your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel to use this functionality. The option is included in the Hosted Domains section of your Control Panel in which you'll have to input the links to the custom-made files using simple drop-down menus and an easy to work with interface. Keep in mind, you have to upload them in your account before that. If you do not want to employ this function at some point, you can deactivate it just as fast and select an Apache server page or a default page from our system to be displayed if your visitors encounter an error. If you prefer, you may also use an .htaccess file to enable the customized error pages. The file should contain a specific line of code and a link for each and every error type and you can discover an example of the entire content for all four error types in our Help section.
