Wordpress and the 404 error

    Typically I use .htaccess (on a non wordpress site) to redirect 404 errors to a page I make.

    The problem is that wordpress has it's own 404 it goes to because I have permalinks like ,,, site.com/post-title/

    So when someone types in .... site.com/post-titlee/

    It'll just goto a 404 page for wordpress. Is there any way I can force it to goto a premade 404 page like ... site.com/404.html

    I doubt you can do that.

    If your theme has a 404.php, try editing that.
