disable 404?

ingleslenobel · 2014-11-02 12:56:39

Is there any way to disable the textpattern generated 404 for a site so that it just uses the one dictated by the toplevel .htaccess? My textpattern is a directory below and I already have one…

Thank you!!

Yes – copy and paste your 404 directives from the parent .htaccess to the Textpattern .htaccess.

Tried that, but not working for me, hence I asked =(. Set under both the /textpattern/ subdirectory and the one above, [url deleted jji] still shows the textpattern stuff

Can you post your site diagnostics? Admin -> Diagnostics. There’s a section for .htaccess contents that I’m interested in.

Untested, but try this:

ErrorDocument 404 ../404.php

For completeness, if you make a 404.php in your subdirectory (same level as the Textpattern index.php) does that load on a 404?

jakob · 2014-11-02 16:04:05

Trying placing the ErrorDocument directives you have at the bottom at the top of the htaccess file where you can see the other ErrorDocument placeholder (the placeholder has a hash in front of it, your directives shouldn’t). It should then get processed before textpattern gets to it.

I think you’ve specified them correctly with a / in front but if you still don’t have any success, try with the whole url, e.g.

ErrorDocument 404 http://extreme-macro.co.uk/404.php

ingleslenobel · 2014-11-02 16:11:00

Hmmmm, none of them worked, [url deleted jji]

Maybe I need to talk to my hosting, they have a ’404 for newbies’ backend widget and maybe that’s interfering (although I have it off!)

I don’t get why it’s showing me the content of ‘links’ though

Thanks again!!

And you’ve definitely moved the ErrorDocument directives to the top of the htaccess file (the one in your /extremist subfolder) so that it is above the textpattern stuff?

I just tried this here – it works. Ignore my ../404.php suggestion, ingleslenobel.

ingleslenobel · 2014-11-02 17:47:25

Works now with 'ErrorDocument 404 /404.php' in /textpattern/ .htaccess

Thank you all very very much!!!
