Pelican error when generate page 404

I have created a file 404.md using the instructions from http://docs.getpelican.com/en/3.6.3/tips.html

This file contains

Title: Not Found Status: hidden Save_as: 404.html Date: 2016-01-01 00:00:00

page 404

When I make pelican content, receive an error

ERROR: Unknown status 'hidden' for file blog/404.md, skipping it.

Please advise me, why you can not generate the page. Why does not know the status 'hidden' ?

Thx WalkR

Solution

  • Make sure you are creating a Page and not an Article. Try removing the Date: line in your header, and then move the file to: /home/WalkR/www/www.test.local/content/pages/404.md

    I have clarified this in the development version of the docs.
