Overview
The most common use cases for the 404 tag is for checking if a user is logged in or has performed an action before displaying a particular page.
{{ if ! logged_in }} {{ 404 }}{{ /if }} {{ if ! success }} {{ 404 }}{{ /if }}@if (! $logged_in }} <statamic:not_found />@endif @if (! $success) <statamic:not_found />@endif
Hot Tip!
If you want to trigger Statamic's 404 logic manually, you can throw an instance of the NotFound exception:
<?php use Statamic\Exceptions\NotFoundHttpException; // Trigger Statamic's 404 logic.throw new NotFoundHttpException();If you'd rather perform a redirect instead of throwing a 404, you can use the redirect tag.
Hot Tip!
There's no need to wrap the rest of the template in an else condition.
