Changing the 404 error page

[Jordan C]

When a page does not exist it goes to the x10 404 error, but how do I get my own error page. C-Panel has a error page section, but they don't help.

If anyone knows the directory of the old x10 one that'd be great, but I can't find it myself.

I also tried changing the .htaccess file, but that won't work, it just brings up other error pages.
:dunno:

Custom error documents have recently been re-enabled across all the free hosting servers. What errors are you receiving while using cPanel to change the pages?

Well, the C-Panel didn't do anything, nothing changed, but when I changed .htaccess file it came up with a 222 error I think, don't know.

It seems they don't work correctly.
I'll move this to "Level Two Support" for the Development Team to check it.

Fixed:

For some reason, it doesnt change the .htaccess, you need to manually edit your .htaccess file, for the 404, the line would be:

ErrorDocument 404 http://simplenerdtalk.x10hosting.com/404.shtml

500, it would be ErrorDocument 500 http://simplenerdtalk.x10hosting.com/500.shtml

Just just the error pages in cPanel, to create them, or upload your own and then use the above to make them work. I have activated your 404 one you had, for testing.
