WordPress trigger 404

1 Views

How can I trigger a 404 template to show up ? I have done the following … 

$_escaped_fragment_ = $_REQUEST['_escaped_fragment_'];
$post = ( get_page_by_path($_escaped_fragment_,'','brands' ) );
if(!empty($post) ){
    setup_postdata($post);
    the_title();
    get_template_part('loop');
    wp_reset_postdata();
}else{
    get_404_template();//not working
    include( get_query_template( '404' ) );//not working...
}

  1. How about this? this should work.

    status_header(404);
include( get_404_template() );
exit;

    instead of this

    get_404_template();//not working
include( get_query_template( '404' ) );//not working...
