When using Hugo with [GitHub Pages](http://pages.github.com/), you can provide
|
|
your own template for a [custom 404 error page](https://help.github.com/articles/custom-404-pages/)
|
|
by creating a 404.html template file in your `/layouts` folder.
|
|
When Hugo generates your site, the `404.html` file will be placed in the root.
|
|
|
|
404 pages are of the type **"node"** and have all the [node
|
|
variables](/layout/variables/) available to use in the templates.
|
|
|
|
In addition to the standard node variables, the 404 page has access to
|
|
all site content accessible from `.Data.Pages`.

## 404.html
|
|
|
|
This is a basic example of a 404.html template:
|
|
|
|
{{ partial "header.html" . }}
|
|
{{ partial "subheader.html" . }}
|
|
|
|
<section id="main">
|
|
<div>
|
|
<h1 id="title">{{ .Title }}</h1>
|
|
</div>
|
|
</section>
|
|
|
|
{{ partial "footer.html" . }}
|
|
|
|
### Automatic Loading
|
|
|
|
Your 404.html file can be set to load automatically when a visitor enters a mistaken URL path, dependent upon the web serving environment you are using. For example:
|
|
|
|
* _GitHub Pages_ - it's automatic.
|
|
* _Apache_ - one way is to specify `ErrorDocument 404 /404.html` in an `.htaccess` file in the root of your site.
|
|
* _Nginx_ - you might specify `error_page 404 = /404.html;` in your `nginx.conf` file.
|
|
* _Amazon AWS S3_ - when setting a bucket up for static web serving, you can specify the error file.
