Error "Error 404 Page"

Hi,

UPDATE: If you have the time, please edit the functions-enfold.php file. Look for the “av_error404” function. Replace everything with this code.

/**
 * Error 404 - Custom Page
 * Hooks into the 404_template filter and display the defined 404 page
 * Does not work with <a href='http://bit.ly/kwpml' target='_blank' rel="nofollow">WPML</a>
 * @author tinabillinger
 * @since 4.3
 */
if( ! function_exists( 'av_error404' ) )
{
    function av_error404($template)
    {
        // skip if <a href='http://bit.ly/kwpml' target='_blank' rel="nofollow">WPML</a> is active
          if( ! defined('ICL_SITEPRESS_VERSION') && ! defined('ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE')) {
            if (avia_get_option('error404_custom') == "error404_custom") {

				$error404_page = avia_get_option('error404_page');
				$error404_url = get_permalink($error404_page );

				if(defined('WPSEO_VERSION')) {
					if (wp_redirect($error404_url)) {
						exit();
					}
				}

                global $wp_query;

                // check if error 404 page is defined
                if ($error404_page) {
                    // hook into the query
                    $wp_query = null;
                    $wp_query = new WP_Query();
                    $wp_query->query( 'page_id=' . $error404_page );
                    $wp_query->the_post();
                    $template = get_page_template();
                    rewind_posts();
                    return $template;
                }
            }
        }

        return $template;

    }
    add_filter( '404_template', 'av_error404', 999 );
}

Let us know if it helps.

Hi,

The modification is now included in the core but there’s no ETA for the patch yet, unfortunately. Please keep the modification for now.

Hi,

My bad. There was another issue with the maintenance mode option and Yoast. The fix that is provided here is almost the same as that one so I thought I already reported this issue. Please keep the modifications for now. We’ll forward this again to the development team.

Hi!

Thanks for the update. @Gunter created new filters to take care of this particular issue but they’re not merged in the core yet. We’ll update you once the modifications are included in the theme. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hey!

@prudsys: Thanks for the info. I notified @Gunter about this. The wp_redirect function has a parameter called “status” so that may be used to set the header status to 404 when doing a custom 404 page redirect.

Hi,

I’m not sure when the next patch will be released but the modification is already merged in the core. I will tag @gunter to the thread. Please wait for his response.

Hi,

I refactored the way custom 404 and maintenance mode pages are handled. It should also be compatible with WPML and YOAST and the status codes should be 404 and 503.

If you want to test it – please update enfold\functions-enfold.php with

https://github.com/KriesiMedia/enfold-library/blob/master/temp_fixes/Enfold_4_4_1/functions-enfold.php

Do not forget to make a copy for fallback.

I will check with Kriesi when he plans the next update.

Best regards,
Günter
