.. admonition:: Ensure that your 404 template works
Note that the ``FlatpageFallbackMiddleware`` only steps in once
another view has successfully produced a 404 response. If another
view or middleware class attempts to produce a 404 but ends up
raising an exception instead (such as a ``TemplateDoesNotExist``
exception if your site does not have an appropriate template to
use for HTTP 404 responses), the response will become an HTTP 500
("Internal Server Error") and the ``FlatpageFallbackMiddleware``
will not attempt to serve a flat page.
