| | I've seen a tutorial on here and no offense but it was horrific, this is the real way you do a 404 Error Page.
Make a file called: htaccess.txt
Open it up and put this:
CODE ErrorDocument 404 /myerrorpage.html
You will need to change myerrorpage.html to whatever your page is called. Also when you upload this file to your server you need to rename it to: .htaccess
Yes, the dot is before the words. You need to do this on the server because on Windows you cannot do that! |

I approved this tutorial so that other members who do not have cPanel in their web hosting and who find us on google will know how to make a 404 page. Now, Shawn, I believe that you are referring to fsastraps' 404 tutorial. His code was merely for "myerrorpage.html" so to speak. I know he did not make a .htaccess file as you did because trap17 already has that. You can also make 404 error pages, as well as other error pages, without doing what you did, so there is no need to flame. By the way, Windows XP can make .htaccess. I know because I've done it several times.

Yeah, I've done that on mine, too. However, I sometimes have dificulties naming it that...I get some error message saying that it doesn't have a file name or something...just save it that way using Notepad, and I believe it will do it (I haven't done it in a while, so I don't quite remember how I did it).

If you do want to save it as .htaccess on XP then use Notepad to type the file, then click File, Save As. Then select all files from the drop down and type .htaccess as the file name. I've never had any problems doing it this way.

Does it matter where in .htaccess it goes cos mine is full of WordPress stuff and I've put it after AuthName www.gapcommunity.trap17.com AuthUserFile /home/username/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.pwd AuthGroupFile /home/username/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.grp but it doesn't appear to be working. Also, should it be /public_html/wp-content/themes/custom/404.php or /home/username/public_html/wp-content/themes/custom/404.php?

I really don't know much about it Tyssen, but my guess would be, or what I would try is to put your 404.php file in a directory called "errors" under the public_html directory and then put the htaccess file also just inside the public_html directory and have it refer to /errors/404.php that way it should work as the error page for your entire page... does that help?

Your Wordpress installation comes with a 404 page with this in it: CODE <?php get_header(); ?>
Content
<?php get_footer(); ?> Those includes are going to look for headers and footers within the WP content structure, so you must be able to get it to work for the paths that I've specified.

That will work for .htm .html .php .asp .mp3 .jpg ... Any file can be called as an error page (as far as I am aware). It won't look for /subdir/404.php if you put the .htaccess in the /public_html/ folder directly. This will apply your error page to all sub folders, but won't include the sub folder name in the search for the file. The user's IP can be taken with the following line of code: CODE
$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
You can resolve that IP address with the following code (in place of what is above): CODE
$resolve = GetHostByName($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);
To get the page that the user came from you can use the code: CODE
$referrer = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];
/* That can sometimes fail as some browsers stop it being sent, so you could try this if it doesn't work */
$referrer_uri = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
I don't think it is possible to find out what page a user was going to, as it will be changed to your 404.php anyway. I hope this helps you.

this will do .php error pages aswell right? and what about when a page is called from a sub directory that results in an error, will the script try to call /subdir/404.php instead of /404.php? and whats the php code to get a users ip, and the page they came from, or were going to?
