 * Hi everyone,
 * The website that I need help with is [http://www.budgetpantry.com](http://www.budgetpantry.com)
 * If you go to the site and scroll all the way down to the bottom, you’ll see a
   string of German text indicated ‘page not found’ and the likes.
 * I viewed my page source and can see what to remove, but where do I go in my wordpress
   dashboard to remove them? I have tried “Appearance > Editor” and clicking each.
   php file, but I can’t locate the code.
 * Thanks in advance. I really hope to get some advice!

 * 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&nbsp;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!
