How to make Prestashop 404 error pages redirected to homepage, and not to default template? i did try everything - nothing works. i did put it in .htacess -> not working, i placed it in 404.tpl file too, manual redirect with javascript in the head, sadly it dont accept the changes and it is not working. i am not able to find where it is stated and from where it redirects 404 errors to this shitty template page. from SEO stand of view this hurts really bad. Please help me. Thanks.

 

(been trying to fix this from 5 days now and i got to a dead end. u are my only hope. Please help!)

the easiest thing:

You can alter 404.tpl in your theme dir

at the begining of file just add this;
 

{Tools::Redirect('index')}
