   Hi,

   My client would like the 404 page to have his left hand side bar displayed on the 404 page.
   Currently, it is displaying Categories and Archive which I assume is meant for the blog side of things (not used).

   Please could you let me know as to how I can make his left hand menu display instaed of what is there now.

   Thanks,

   A

   Hey,
   the 404 sidebar just shows the standard "dummy" widgets. You can change the code in sidebar.php. Open up the file and search for following code:

   <div class='box box_small'>
   	            <h3>Categories</h3>
   				<ul>
   	            <?php wp_list_cats('sort_column=name&optioncount=0&hierarchical=0'.$exclude); ?>
   	            </ul>
               </div>
   
   			<div class='box box_small'>
   	            <h3>Archive</h3>
   				<ul>
   	            <?php wp_get_archives('type=monthly'); ?>
   	            </ul>
               </div>

   You can replace this code with any other code of your choice.

   Great! That sounds easy enough...
   But how do I get the site's left hand menu to show in its place??
