I tried putting:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="../images/favicon.ico">
into the index.php file, but the headers are output by the functions.php file. So I attempted editing that file aswell, but the same problem arose.
Any answers? Please and thank you.
Try editing the headerinclude for your theme and putting it in there.
ACP -> Templates -> Modify/Delete -> *Your Theme* -> Expand -> headerinclude
Alright thanks a bunch!
I just edited the "headerinclude" like you said and added the code before that.
It is working ok now then?
I found a cool place to edit your favicons! I'm not sure if anyone has seen this before or not, but you can upload the pic you would like, plus you can animate it if you wanted
http://www.html-kit.com/favicon/
You really only need to upload the facicon.ico file to the root directory of the site for it to be recognized. The REL tag isn't needed by most browsers.
Why does not this work for me???
I upload the favicon.ico file to the root
In header include I add
Quote: <link rel=”shortcut icon” href=”http://www.ikf-forum.eu/favicon.ico”>

Works fine here (small green dot?)
Your browser caches the favicons, so it probably hasn't updated yet.
Thats right it must be a small green earth.
But I cannot see it. Any Idea what to do???
