   Can someone tell where the find this line...

   "Sorry, we can't find the content you're looking for at this URL. Please try selecting a menu item from above or to the side of this message to get where you'd like to go."

   I only want to customize it to my own wording.

   Been searching thru all my directories but can't find the file containing it.

   I use WordPressMU and BuddyPress for me site.

   Thanks
   Dave

   It should be in the 404.php template file.

   Makes a lot of sense but I cannot find one if it should be in my theme's folder. I searched all folders for my site and found a whole bunch of them. Is there a specific folder I should look in?

   If not I guess I have to go hunting thru each file one by one.

   Thanks

   The info I am looking for is not in any of the 404.php pages. If anyone else know where it can be found I will appreciate it.

   Thanks

   What page are you getting this message from? Is it a post? or perhaps a category page which isn't there?

   If it is from a post then the message to customise is probably within single.php after an else statement.

   ok what I did was went back and read on wordpress.org how to create your own custom 404.php error pages so I placed that in my themes directory and got it to work.

   At first I was trying to find the actual file with the error to customize it but could not find it.

   Here is the code. I got the php file from the wp default theme directory.

   div id="post-0" class="post error404 not-found">
   <h1 class="entry-title"> ?php _e( 'No Such Page!', 'blogs_mu' ); ?></h1>
   <div class="entry-content">
   <p>?php _e( 'The page you are looking for does not exist on this network. .', 'mythemename' );

   Thanks though. Sorry for delayed response
   Dave
