favicon.ico

[kd6lor]

I just figured out how to get a little icon in the address bar of supported browsers when they visit the first page of my website, but what PHP page needs to be modified so the icon will appear on all EE pages? Any help appreciated.


This is what I put in my website index page at www.melor.com

It should work on most recent browsers.

just put favicon.oico in your root site folder, and it should do it for every page automatically for my site, it's the /public_html folder. You shouldn't have ot put it anywhere else, nor stick any meta tags in your files. Just stick the file there and it will do it for each page on your site.

Just note that when you bookmarked a page from your site without the favo icon before, you probably will not see the favo icon when you bookmark the page again after you added the ico file.
Windows seems to store this icon once and once only.

Test your favo icon on a computer that never bookmarked a page from your site before.
