How to Create Custom Error Page in Laravel 11?

By Hardik Savani September 4, 2024 Category : Laravel

In this article, I will show you how to create a custom error page in a Laravel 11 application. We can redesign 404, 500, 503, 419, 401 error pages in Laravel 11.

By default, Laravel provides a very simple design for all error pages, but sometimes we need to create a custom error page with our design theme. So here, I will show you step by step how to create your own custom error page design in the Laravel 11 application.

You can create the following error pages in laravel 11:

  • 401 Error Page
  • 403 Error Page
  • 404 Error Page
  • 419 Error Page
  • 429 Error Page
  • 500 Error Page
  • 503 Error Page

You can see the default 404 and 500 page designs below:

Default 404 Error Page

Default 500 Error Page

Now, let's see how to change the design of 404 and 500 error pages.

Step 1: Install Laravel 11

This step is not required; however, if you have not created the Laravel app, then you may go ahead and execute the below command:

composer create-project laravel/laravel example-app

Step 2: Publish Error Page Default Files

In this step, we will run the Laravel command to create the default error page blade file. When you run the command below, Laravel will create an "errors" directory with all error pages in the views folder. So, let's run the command below:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=laravel-errors

Step 3: Update 404 Error Page Design

You can update 404 error page design with following code:
