I would use the wp_title filter hook: function theme_slug_filter_wp_title( $title ) { if ( is_404() ) { $title=”ADD 404 TITLE TEXT HERE”; } // You can do other filtering here, or // just return $title return $title; } // Hook into wp_title filter hook add_filter( ‘wp_title’, ‘theme_slug_filter_wp_title’ ); This will play nicely with other Plugins … Read more

Filters? Anyone? There’s no filter there to help: page_template_dropdown($template); is used to build the drop down and it’s not filterable. Sneaking into the Templates Array? To build the drop downs contents, the core meta box uses get_page_templates(). From inside, the function looks like the following: $themes = get_themes(); $theme = get_current_theme(); $templates = $themes[$theme][‘Template Files’]; … Read more

Don’t forget that WordPress was primarily designed to be a blogging CMS, so when it comes to theme development, developers often opt for a non-standard approach in exchange for the potential for more features.
