Custom 404 Pro

Description

Allows users to replace the default 404 page with a custom page from the Pages section in the Admin Panel. Or you can specify a complete URL to redirect on 404.

Important Note

Please open issues on Github. I will not be using the WordPress.org support area.

Features

  • Full 404 Page Control
  • Record 404 Page Data
  • Custom Page Redirect
  • Custom URL Redirect

How does it work?

  • WordPress Page: Choose a custom page from the Admin Panel
  • URL: Enter a custom URL for 404
  • Stats: List of all 404s

Screenshots

  • Activate the plugin from the WordPress Admin Panel
  • 404 Logs
  • Global Settings

Installation

  • Extract the downloaded ZIP file.
  • Copy the custom-404-pro folder to the wp-content/plugins directory.
  • Activate from the Plugins Section.

FAQ-e

Why is the 404 custom redirect not working?

Some users have reported an issue with the Divi theme where the 404 redirect does not work. In such cases, please disable the Divi theme and try again. It’s usually a good practice to start disabling themes/plugins one by one and work your way backward to see what might be causing the issue.

Why are my plugin preferences not being saved?

Uninstall the plugin from the Plugins page (important!) and reinstall it. Never remove plugin folders directly from your WordPress installation as this DOES NOT cleanup plugin database tables.

Thank you so much for this brilliant plugin. I am not technically confident, cannot do much by way of coding and get overwhelmed with geek speak. I downloaded this plugin after trying (and failing with) another, and within 10 minutes had my custom 404 page up and running. This has saved me time, energy and stress. Thank you so much. I have just donated something small too to support you in your work and creativity.
На мой взгляд, это лучшее и простое дополнение для перенаправления! Перенаправляет даже с «закрытой страницы» ?author=1 что другие подобные дополнения делать не могут. Молодец.

This plugin was working great for us until we adjust the settings to start logging the 404 pages. Then, the custom page we selected in Wordpress for the 404 to route to stops working. Is this a known bug?
