MyBB Community Forums

Hi, I'm pretty new to MyBB. Where do I add an icon .ico file that is in the tab on top of browsers?

Copy your icon named favicon.ico to forum root on server (where index.php, portal.php etc. is)

Open ACP >> Templates & Styles >> Templates >> YOURTHEME >> Ungrouped Templates >> headerinclude and paste right above first <meta.....> tag:

<link rel="icon" href="{$mybb->asset_url}/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />

Save changes and reload site.

Just upload "favicon.ico" file in your root folder, and browser will auto-update it, It doesnot require any coding work.

Just upload your file with name "favicon.ico" in your root folder.

That didn't seem to work for some reason :/

I can't get it to work and I am using the Flatty theme for my forum and i have it in the public_html (root file) and it still is not working. I have it named as favicon.ico in the folderand I put that code where you said. Any other advice you can give me. http://forums.unstoppablegamingnetwork.com/public_html/

^ is public_html a part of your forum url ? is it a must ? looks like there is some mis-configuration.
