Anyone attempting to access something inappropriately will be automatically re-directed to this page. It’s best practice to provide links back to your store, in case someone reached this page in error. Simply create a 404.html file in the root of your OpenCart store. You can use file manager to do so. Please see our article on using File Manager in cPanel for more information.
