Create a Custom 404 Page for Block Theme

Summary

Design and implement a custom 404 page for the block theme. The goal is to create an engaging, user-friendly experience when users encounter a missing page.

Description

Currently, the theme lacks a dedicated 404 page design, which can lead to a suboptimal user experience. We need a well-designed 404 page that not only informs users of the error but also guides them back to the main content or suggests popular links. This page should be built using block elements, allowing for easy customization and maintenance.

Requirements

  1. Clear and Friendly Message: Display a friendly message indicating that the page was not found.

  2. Design Layout: The 404 page should have a clean, visually appealing layout that aligns with the theme's aesthetic. Proposal: Insert a semitransparent funny image that dynamically takes the primary color (e.g., using the main CSS variable for the primary color). This will ensure visual consistency with the rest of the theme.

  3. Suggested Links: Add links to popular sections (e.g., Home, Blog, Contact) to help users navigate.

  4. Search Bar: Include a search bar to allow users to quickly find what they were looking for.

  5. Blocks: Use reusable and customizable blocks to allow future adjustments via the block editor.

Additional Notes

  • Ensure the 404 page is fully responsive.
  • Consider accessibility standards to make the page usable for all visitors.
  • Make sure the 404 page does not affect site performance.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Custom 404 page is created and styled to match the theme.
  • The page includes a friendly message, suggested links, and a search bar.
  • The design is responsive and accessible.
  • The 404 page can be easily customized in the block editor.
  • Ensure the 404 page renders without performance issues.
