404 and 500 Error Pages – Part 2
In the previous post we saw how to create the Sitecore items needed to handle a page for 404 and another for 500 errors, as well as the necessary changes in some config files. Now, we will look at some changes in code to display the correct HTML code.

Sitecore Hackathon 2018
