This is a quick article on what I change the error page for Joomla websites to. I like a clean error page, for a demo visit http://www.joellipman.com/my_error_page.
- Applies to Joomla 1.6.x, 1.7.x, 2.5.x
How?
- Backup the file \templates\system\error.php
- Create a replacement file called error.php including the below code
- Change the message "The Page you are looking for..." to what you want.
- Change the link "www.joellipman.com" to the "www.yoursitename.com".
- [Optional] If you want the image that creates the shadow you can download it here. I put it in the folder \templates\system\images.
