Managing Error Pages in Voltic Host Web Panel

Custom error pages improve user experience by providing friendly messages instead of generic server errors. This tutorial will guide you through creating and managing error pages (e.g., 404, 500) in Voltic Host Web Panel.

2️⃣ Creating a Custom 404 Error Page

Inside the errors folder, create a new file called 404.html.

Open the file and add a custom message:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Page Not Found</title>
</head>
<body>
    <h1>Oops! Page Not Found (404)</h1>
    <p>Sorry, the page you are looking for does not exist.</p>
    <a href="/">Go Back to Homepage</a>
</body>
</html>

Save the file.

✅ Your custom 404 error page has been created!

3️⃣ Configuring Error Pages in .htaccess

In File Manager, locate or create the .htaccess file in:
```
/home/user/web/yourdomain.com/public_html/
```

Open .htaccess and add the following lines:

ErrorDocument 404 /errors/404.html
ErrorDocument 500 /errors/500.html
