Better message for database connection error?

Question

Right now, if the database connection is down, the we get a big red error message. Is there a way to give a more specific error message using a template?

If I can connect to a database, then I would just like to display "Up and Available" and if I cannot connect to a database, then display "The database is not currently available"

Hi Phillip, Sorry, I forgot to write the instructions. With the provided version, please try to hide the default error message and print your own instead if the result stays empty. It should work like this in your template: #if (!$result) THERE WAS AN ERROR #else # your template #end Please let me know if this works! Regards, Felix (Scandio)

I just installed it. Is the feature mentioned in the original question available in this version? If so, how do I enable it?

Hi Phillip,

I know, we're in a intense delay with version 2.1 - sorry! Feel free to check out an early access version. We'd be happy about any feedback!
