I have provided the hook, but you still need to write a code which would redirect wpForo 404 page to your custom one.

If you cannot write the code, you can contact with Gvectors Custom work team with your request.

You can use this hook for that:

$this->current_object = apply_filters( 'wpforo_after_init_current_object', $this->current_object, $wpf_url_parse );
