How to change Error 404 Not Found default (4 posts)

    I'm running WP MU and want to change the Error 404 page, which presently says only this:

    Not Found

    Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn't here.

    I've tried editing the index, single and page.php pages of individual themes to no avail. The same words appear when the user reaches a nonexistent page.

    Help!!

    (and thanks in advance)

    Yes, thanks, I've been to that page. And I do not see a '404 Template' among my themes. Nor have I had any luck in changing either the 404.php, index.php, single.php or page.php -- all of which have Not Found provisions in them.

    I also looked at /wp-content/themes/default/404.php and changed that file -- to no avail.

    At one point last year, I fooled around with a theme named /home/ and put in the error 404 info I wanted, but the memory fades and if that ever worked in the first place, it does not now.

    Still stuck in Roanoke, Va. ...
