    Default Re: Help with Favicon

    Have you cleared your browser cache?

    And added your site to your favorites?

    Is the favicon saved as a .ico?

    Try adding the favicon.ico to your directory root?

    Yes go to your web browser and type in http://www.thewishplace.com/favicon.ico

    That should load the picture/icon in the browser. Then try your site homepage.

    Another trick is to bookmark your site and that should also help it show.

    It took mine a few weeks to change. I was using one and switched to the current one and for some reason it took almost a week to switch. I even cleared the cache and everything.

    Just give it time... I can see it is working for new visitors.

    I stand corrected. You need to go to http://www.thewishplace.com/store/favicon.ico

    Sorry for the mistake.

    like this right

    <link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.thewishplace.com/favicon.ico">
    I would change it to

    <link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.thewishplace.com/store/favicon.ico">

    But I would like someone to verify this. I guess it would not hurt to try.

    Any way its working for me. WP with a star above.
