editing the theme’s live 404 page

[tmhaynes]

Hi, I want to edit the error 404 page not found page and customise this template, however when I edit the “404-page” in the theme pages section and save it my changes are not being seen in the live error 404 – not found. It looks like the live error “404 not found” is not the “404-page” I am editing as it has a different 404 naming convention.  I searched for info on which 404 page is used by the theme and how to edit it but couldn’t find anything. Please can you provide some direction.

cheers /Tim

I am also trying to edit the search results page template and cant see how to change this either – thanks.

Both are served via php templates. Copy them to your child theme and edit as you wish.

404: /kleo/page-templates/404-page.php

Search: /kleo/search.php

This is my path to edit my 404 page: kleo-child/page-templates/404-page.php

I’ve tried to make a small change to the text, but it’s not being reflected. Is there any other files that I need to add to my child theme for this to work? I only want to change the image and text, everything else will remain the same.

Thank you.

Copy /kleo/404.php to /kleo-child/404.php.

Hi Sharmstr,

I already copied the 404.php from Kleo to Kleo-child, how can I edit now? where I could find it to edit it with the Visual Composer?

Cheers,
Miguel
