Research direction

Start by checking the site’s existing page files and how it builds or serves the site. Add a _404.html page that replaces the host’s default error page; confirm by visiting a URL that does not exist and checking that the custom page appears.

Description

enhancement No-AI

We can override that with a _404.html page.
