        All you need to do is edit your .htaccess file and add the following line of code:

        ErrorDocument 404 /404.php

        I hope this helps.

          Here's a helpful page that describes what you can do:

          http://www.mcanerin.com/EN/articles/301-redirect-404-error.asp

          For example, if you have an .htaccess file, you can add this line to the file:

          ErrorDocument 404 /404.php

          Hope this helps!
