Error pages are served up via .HTACCESS, if you are using Apache you would use the ErrorDocument directive and add the status and URL to it. So it would look like this in your .htaccess file: ErrorDocument 401 http://yourwebsite.com/error-401 ErrorDocument 403 http://yourwebsite.com/error-403 ErrorDocument 500 http://yourwebsite.com/error-500 You could use the following function below. This will dynamically … Read more
Prefix everything, especially your variables. The names you are using are used by WordPress internally (see the comment form), so WordPress might try to do something with your form values. If that fails you get an error. While $_GET problems are usually rather easy to debug, $_POST and $_REQUEST names are not so simple. The … Read more
After a bit more slogging through code and Googling, I found the answer. It’s contained in this thread (see Otto42’s post), but for the record, adding the following to your plugin will override the 404 handling for the conditions you specify: add_filter(‘template_redirect’, ‘my_404_override’ ); function my_404_override() { global $wp_query; if (<some condition is met>) { … Read more

I guess you get http://yoursite but not http://yoursite/anything I had a similar problem and it worked when I changed the httpd.conf from AllowOverride None to AllowOverride All It makes the .htaccess take effect.
I’m assuming that you put WordPress in your site root and the external directories are also in your site root. The reason this is happening is that .htaccess files follow a hierarchy. Whatever directives are in the top-level .htaccess file flow down and apply to all directories below it. If this is the case, you … Read more
You could try the WordPress function status_header() to add the HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found header; So your Code 2 example would be: function rr_404_my_event() { global $post; if ( is_singular( ‘event’ ) && !rr_event_should_be_available( $post->ID ) ) { global $wp_query; $wp_query->set_404(); status_header(404); } } add_action( ‘wp’, ‘rr_404_my_event’ ); This function is for example used in … Read more
