404 not being serverd

  • Hi,

    when i type in a url that i should server a 404 error page it displays part of the footer?

    I am using my own template and i have a 404.php file in the themes directory. but even without the 404 file i have the same problem.

    I have tried adding

    ErrorDocument 404 /index.php?error=404

    to the htaccess file but nothing changes.

    Cheers

  • Did you find a solution to this? Having a similar problem

    I’m also having the same issue here. I’m using WP 2.6.

    Hey, did you guys ever find an answer?

    I think there’s something funny going on with Mod Rewrite so that these pages don’t 404 … then wordpress will display the default page for a “bad” URL.

    Why doesn’t the server step in first with the ErrorDocument line? That’s what I can’t figure out.
