Override hostgator 404 pages

Does anybody has any experience ,I want themes default should be shown

 

Is there a .htaccess file that's changing the 404 page? How about a setting in their control panel? I'm not familiar with Hostgator's service but those are the only two options I can think of.

 

your theme must have a custom 404 error page to be shown

 

You can manage error pages (400,401,403,404,500..) from cPanel.
Look for Error pages button in cPanel.

 

Both using the cPanel or redirecting in .htacess with mod_rewrite or ErrorDocument 404, will work with HostGator.

 

this should explain it... http://www.hostgator.com/tutorials/xskincpanel/cpanel_xskin_errorpages.htm

 

google "hostgator custom error pages" they have a short video that will explain it easily. I would give you the URL if I could...

 

I think there is a feature in cPanel to change the error pages.

 

It is very simple login to your FTP account of the domain, in th root folder you will file some HTML files with name 404.shtml 501.shtml etc. Remove them and replace them with your own.. that is it.
