Hi
The page you disable is just an article page.
The 404 page is in template folder/error.php file.
You can customise the page and redirect it to article page with help of this documentation.

Hope it helps,

Thanks; the instruction you gave me say this:

Modify error.php to Redirect 404 Errors to your 404 Article
Edit the error.php file as follows, adding the code below immediately under the ‘restricted access’ line:
If you are using Joomla 1.6, 1.7, 2.5, or 3.x please use this detection code:

if (($this->error->getCode()) == ‘404’) {
header(‘Location: /index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=75’);
exit;
}

Where is the "restricted access line"?

Here is what I have in my error.php file:

<?php

defined(‘JEXEC’) or die;
if (!isset($this->error)) {
$this->error = JError::raiseWarning(404, JText::(‘JERROR_ALERTNOAUTHOR’));
$this->debug = false;
}
//get language and direction
$doc = JFactory::getDocument();
$this->language = $doc->language;
$this->direction = $doc->direction;
$theme = JFactory::getApplication()->getTemplate(true)->params->get(‘theme’, ”);
?>

Hi
You have to define this code
```
if (($this->error->getCode()) == '404') {
header('Location: /index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=75');
exit;
}
```
after
$theme = JFactory::getApplication()->getTemplate(true)->params->get(‘theme’, ”);
?>
and change the article id with your article id.

If any issue share site super user details and article ID in private reply.
I will do this for you.
