Look in Appearance > Widgets and see if there is any sections in there with it.
Hi Radices, thanks for replying. I checked all my widgets and there isn’t anything on that! Any idea which specific .php I should look at or anywhere I should check to see all that I have on my website?
This is the HTML markup for the 404 error displayed at the bottom of your page.
<div id="wrapper2">
<div id="errorboxbody">
<h2>Ein Fehler ist aufgetreten<br>
Die angeforderte Seite konnte nicht gefunden werden!</h2>
<div id="searchbox">
<h3 class="unseen">Suchen</h3>
<p>Die Website kann durchsucht oder es kann die Startseite aufgerufen werden.</p>
<form action="/" method="post">
<div class="search">
<label for="mod-search-searchword">Suchen...</label><input name="searchword" id="mod-search-searchword" maxlength="20" class="inputbox" type="text" size="20" value="Suchen..." onblur="if (this.value=='') this.value='Suchen...';" onfocus="if (this.value=='Suchen...') this.value='';"> <input type="hidden" name="task" value="search">
<input type="hidden" name="option" value="com_search">
<input type="hidden" name="Itemid" value="435">
</div>
</form>
</div>
<div>
<p><a href="/index.php" title="Zur Startseite wechseln">Startseite</a></p>
</div>
<h3>Bei Problemen ist der Administrator dieser Website zuständig.</h3>
<h2>#404 Beitrag nicht gefunden</h2> <br>
</div><!-- end wrapper -->
</div>
So you could try to find id=”errorboxbody” in your theme source files (should be in footer.php if standard) or plugins maybe.
It looks weird anyway because you also have a Powered by Joomla!® at the end of the page…
thanks Samuel.. I found the problem by deactivating and activating my plugins one by one. strange as it seems, the error came from a Visitor Counter plugin that I’ve been using forever! one of my IT friends suggested the plugin probably had a page that was residing on joomla’s server.
thank you again!
