<p>Quickly output a 404 for static files that aren’t found, rather than loading the normal 404 page.</p>
<p>Any static files ( images, text, pdfs, etc ) that don’t exist will 404 as soon as possible, rather than loading the entire WordPress application.</p>
<h3>Details</h3>
<p>By default, the list of extensions to check are the results of <code>wp_get_ext_types</code>, but can be filtered with <code>static_404_extensions</code>.</p>
<p>The output is a static page with the text <code>404 Not Found</code>, this text can be edited by filtering <code>static_404_message</code>.</p>
<p>A 404 status code will be used, but can be filtered with <code>static_404_response_code</code>.</p>
<p>Passing true to <code>static_404_should_process_request</code> will short-circuit and skip processing the request. This filter gets passed the current request.</p>

<p>WordPress offers inbuilt support for custom 404 pages on all themes. But what about custom pages for other common errors like 401 and 403? You end up seeing a bland error page of the Web Server.</p>
<p>With this plugin you can easily create custom 401 and 403 error pages with any theme without writing a single line of code!!! And the best part is that you set it and forget it. Yes, you don’t have to do any changes even if you change themes. The heading and text you want on 401 and 403 error pages are displayed on the currently active theme.</p>
