Hi there, I just want one 404 page which will catch anyone mistyping the domain name in or trying to get to a page which isn’t live. So I’ve created an oops page here: [https://www.wesmcghee.com/404.php](https://www.wesmcghee.com/404.php). Can I simply pop this in my htaccess file or is it bad practice to do this? ErrorDocument 400 [https://www.wesmcghee.com/404.php](https://www.wesmcghee.com/404.php) ErrorDocument 403 [https://www.wesmcghee.com/404.php](https://www.wesmcghee.com/404.php) ErrorDocument 404 [https://www.wesmcghee.com/404.php](https://www.wesmcghee.com/404.php) ErrorDocument 500 [https://www.wesmcghee.com/404.php](https://www.wesmcghee.com/404.php) ---

Did you ever encountered these other errors (than 404 not found)? ---

No not that I know of, I was just trying to cover all the possible error options. Is it unnecessary? ---

There’s a lot more than you have listed. Typing errors should get you a 404. Each error number has a reason, and really should be displayed to help the user determine what went wrong. ---

If you aren’t using special server side features beside PHP on Apache, you should be fine with 404. ---

Your host should be able to give you some code to take care of everything. Fire them a support ticket. ---
