    Nicer 403 page

    Hi All,

    Is there any way of making the 403 page a little nicer? Or is this a server thing?

    Thanks

    Hi Lewis I did this recently.

    I created a content page called Forbidden I then added this to my web.config file underneath httpProtocol:

    <httpErrors errorMode="Custom" existingResponse="Replace">
      <remove statusCode="403" subStatusCode="-1" />
      <error statusCode="403" prefixLanguageFilePath="" path="/Forbidden" responseMode="ExecuteURL" />
</httpErrors>

    I hope that helps.

    Cheers

    Paul

    Hi Paul,

    Thank you very much! I will implement this and see if this solves my issue!

    A 403 error is a server error, is there anyway i can trigger this for testing purposes?

    Thanks, Lewis

    Try my blog post on protecting the media section.

    It returns a 403 error depending on the logic.
