Integrating Gantry error page into a non-error page Template

Posted 10 years 4 months ago

In this guide we'll create a custom 404 error page for our earlier J2,5x templates that didn't incorporate this feature.

In this example we will use Modulus as our template. Basically anywhere you see rt_modulus you would substitute the modulus part with your template name.

From the attached error.zip file, extract error.php and place it in your [ROOT]/templates/rt_modulus folder.

Make a copy of your [ROOT]/templates/rt_modulus/templateDetails.xml file and then insert this code in the original:

 
<filename>error.php</filename>

so that it looks like this:

Please log in or register to see it.

Copy the attached image, gantryrocket.png (you may use your own) to your [ROOT]/templates/rt_modulus/images folder.

Then in your gantryrocket.png (you may use your own) to your [ROOT]/templates/rt_modulus/css folder create a file called rt_modulus-custom.css

Insert this styling code in your rt_modulus-custom.css <-{Click the LINK} file add this:
