Custom 404 error not working on dynamic page

[mattyslinger]

I have just noticed that the custom 404 message doesn’t appear to be working on all pages.

• It seems that the 404 redirect works on static pages https://www.mysite.com/badstaticpage

• but doesn’t not working on dynamic pages https://www.mysite.com/jobs/baddynamicid

Is this correct? If so, my options appear to be to add a router for jobs to check that the id is valid before I forward to the page. This seems like overkill. Any advice?

Matt, even on a static page, the custom 404 is a buggy feature, and I’ll recommend not to use it.
They just didn’t QA it enough.

Wix is so good and so bad all rolled in to one.
