Specifying a 404 Page
I hate the default, unstyled 404 page that Jekyll provides. So, I made some placeholders for you to use. Just set one in the _config.yml file and you’re good to go.
jekyllfaces:
# One of: sticky | badge | dog | droids | glass |
# link | milk | monster | potty | shrug |
# tweet | zork
404_page: sticky # show the yellow sticky note
...
The following examples are rendered just as the 404 page of the same name would be.
