Hey guys,
I wonder if I have a little Ghost built in the software :rolleyes: Now the favicon is not showing in the front end, but it work in the admin panel?
Sight, the icon itself is where it should be /template-I-use/img/favicon.ico.

Strange.

You should to check this line in source code of homepage (front-end):



<link type="image/x-icon" rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.domain.com/templates/your_template/img/favicon.ico" />



If you haven't found this line that you need to add this code in template file http://www.domain.com/templates/your_template/tpl/header.tpl

I found the code and I changed the favicon.ico with my own, but still get in the admin panel my own favicon and at the front-end the flynax favicon.
I also cleared browser cache.

Is there any other location for the favicon.ico?

Hi Andreas,

in english.
You can find favicon.ico in
1. admin/img/favicon.ico (for Backend)
2. templates/your_template/img/favicon.ico (for Frontend)
3. templates/mobile_default/img/favicon.ico (mobile Frontend)

Just copy/change via ftp your favicon.ico in templates/your_template/img/ and templates/mobile_default/img/ thats all.

Important!
Let the line as it is in header.tpl



<link type="image/x-icon" rel="shortcut icon" href="{$rlTplBase}img/favicon.ico" />


Best regards
Steffen

Hallo Andreas,

Kein Problem! :)
Typically the browser cache ...

I also tried it with Safari, but after deleting the cache, still the false favicon was shown.
With Firefox it worked at the first try.
