Underscores Theme 404.php not displaying?

I'm using an _s starter theme for my Wordpress site which is all working fine, except the 404.php template. When I enter a wrong directory I'm getting a generic 404 page (all white with black Times New Roman font displaying "not found")instead of my custom template.

Is there anything I have missed or accidentally deleted in my functions.php?

thanks!

Solution

  • It's possible that the error is either Permalink related (go to Settings > Permalink and re-save your settings), or server related in you're rewrites are not correctly setup.

    Test to see if your 404 page is showing up with any other theme (twentytwelve for example).
