Please Help! Very Urgent!

I am using cpanel and my forum is on a subdomain eg forums.feedthechildren.org . I wanted to seo my forum but because i couldn't afford vbseo, i use another url rewritting mod. right now I have removed that url rewritting mod and I am getting huge number of 404 errors. I learnt that I can redirect the 404 errors to my forum homepage so that if someone clicks on a broken link, he will be redirected to the forum homepage instead of the error message.
I have tried using Errordocument 404/ in my htaccess but that doesn't work. I will appreciate it very much if someone can help me. thanks

Hi Snowball,

As a temporary Measure - I would open my cPanel -> Advanced -> Error Pages -> Select Domain to Manage Error Pages -> Edit Common Error Codes -> Click on 404 not found and in there I would add html to add a link and a brief explaination as to why the viewer should click on it.

Something Like:

Code:

<br /><br /><br /><p><font color="red"><font size="5"> <b>404 - Sorry We are currenlty experiencing Temporary problems</b></font></font></p><br /><br/><br/></p>

Please <a href="http://www.yourforumaddress.com"> Click HERE<b></b></a> to enter our forum!<br/><br/><br/><br/>



forum.com appologises for any inconvenience caused.

Let me know how you get on with that.
