[geeklog-devel] Geeklog and 404 Errors

[今駒哲子]

Tom,

Static Page plugin display error message.
I would think a 404 should be returned in this plugin, too.

Dirk,

I want wiki document about 404.php, too.

404.php is customized in our site.
http://www.geeklog.jp/nonexistent

.htaccess (as Dirk said)
ErrorDocument 404 /404.php

Feature request:
Configuration set staticpage id (e.g. "_404") for 404 error.
