A great change on SharePoint Server with the new version is that there is a support of Custom HTTP 404 Error Pages. In this post we will take a look how to create a new 404 page.
All Publishing sites contains a default a 404 Error page “PageNotFoundError.aspx” page which is added to the App "Pages Library"
Therefore you'll need to connect to a Publishing site.
When you created your site, you can go to your site contents and check under your App "Page library" the current and out-of-the-box PageNotFoundError.aspx
To allow users to create a new custom Error page, Publishing Sites now contain a new Content Type “Error Page“. This Content type Inherits from “Page” Content type and has a typical layout of a Page Not found. To find this Content Type Navigate to Site Settings -> Content Types -> Error Page.
You can modify this page to add some text or images. But we want to create a new custom Error Page. For this go again to your App "Page Library" and create a new document "Error Page"
Provide some information and be sure that you select a (Error Page) Error.
Title: Custom Error Page
Description: Custom Error Page gknzcfc.net
URL Name: Custom-Error-Page
You will now see your new page appearing under your App.
Check out, and make modification to your page.. I'm a huge lover of Doktor House, so I added a picture of him to make clear that the page was not found :^)
