How to change the default 404 page

How To

Hi,

I did create a custom 404 page using a community template in Bricks. But how do you make it the default page ?

It seems as if the default is the 404.php included as a file in the theme.

TIA.
Kind regards,
Paul

Hi @semiosis , welcome to the forum!

You have to setup your custom 404 page as a template within bricks » templates and assign the template type of “error page” to it, so it will become your default 404 page.

You don’t have to be an expert and don’t need to apologize, that’s what the forum is for.

First of all you can check out the Bricks Academy where you will find some articles and videos about templates and other stuff: https://academy.bricksbuilder.io/

To answer your question quickly: you can set the template type in the upper right when adding a new template:
