404 Redirect In Helix?

How do I force all 404's to just redirect to the home page in Helix Ultimate? I tried using ErrorDocument 404 / at the top of the htaccess but it is still redirecting to the default 404 page.

Also, if needed where can I edit the default 404 page?

Hello Chad,

Thanks for reaching out to us.

You can use Joomla’s Redirect component, but it only works for specific URLs that you manually add. It will not automatically redirect all 404 pages to the homepage.

To redirect all 404s automatically, the best approach is to add this line to your .htaccess file (after RewriteEngine On):

ErrorDocument 404 /index.php

This will ensure that any non-existent URL will go directly to your homepage.

Since this issue is related to Joomla itself and not our product, we recommend checking the Joomla forums for additional guidance or alternative solutions.

Best regards,
