I'm trying to follow the instructions laid out in the Joomla documentation for creating a custom 404 page...
https://docs.joomla.org/Creating_a_Cust ... Error_Page
It stated the code supplied should be placed
however I cannot find the restricted access line in my Joomla installation error.php file!!!immediately under the 'restricted access' line:
Can someone please advise where it should go, or if the documentation I'm following is now outdated? I'm using J3.6.5
