    SEO 404 error

    Posted 16 years 4 months ago
    • Hi,

      I registered with google webmaster and tried to verify my site. Although, I upload the HTML file, I receive below error message

      Verification status: NOT VERIFIED
      We've detected that your 404 (file not found) error page returns a status of 200 (Success) in the header.

      I found below post regarding this issue but I didnt understand the solution they give.

      forums.seochat.com/google-optimization-7...s-in-the-216212.html

      Anyone knows anything about this?

      Thank you,

    • Put this code in /templates/system/error.php

      <?php
      header('HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found');
      ?>

      Should work i hope :)

      I placed the code /templates/system/error.php just before </body> tag but I still receive the error message. Please advice? Thank you!

    • This is sorted. I added a meta name instead of HMTL file and it worked.
