    @metalsunny: It is highly recommended not to edit the active theme files directly. If you would like to customize the error page, you will need to create a child theme and make the customization’s. If you are familiar with child theme customization please let me know.

    @metalsunny: If you are not familiar with child theme customization, I recommend you to seek professional help or you may hire a customizer to get the site customized. If you would like to create a child theme you can create one by using our plugin Generate Child theme. Let me know if you have any more issues.

    @metalsunny: You will need to copy the 404.php file from the parent theme and paste in the folder of child theme and make changes to the child theme file as desired. The changes made in the 404.php file of child theme will come into effect. Please make changes as desired and let me know.
