Steve,
I like your suggestion of creating a custom 404 page....I've had too many
experiences
with plugins and components and modules causing conflicts. The tutorial you
reference
doesn't work for yoo themes....And while yoo themes does provide documentation
on
how to create custom pages, the docs are not updated as there is no offline.php
file in the layouts folder...
Following is a quote from the yoothemes doc page at
http://www.yootheme.com/themes/documentation/customizing/customize-the-error-pages
*************************************************************************
The HTML output of the error and offline pages are located in /warp/layouts
within your theme.
* Error Pages: /warp/layouts/error.php
* Offline Pages: /warp/layouts/offline.php
***********************************************************************************
Anyone know how to create error pages for yoo themes?
Janet

Subject: Re: [joomla] Global redirect?
Hi Janet,
You could use an extension like sh404SEF and map all the individual links to
the new pages.
However, as you mention, there will be many old pages that won't be
republished. In that case, I would create a custom 404 page - error.php and use
the search module.
There is a good tutorial in Joomla docs that explains how to do this:
http://docs.joomla.org/Creating_a_Custom_404_Error_Page
All best,
Steve
