Favicon Documentation

[oxman]

The last sentence in this section of the FAQ makes no sense to me. Add

// Favicon define('FAVICON_CODE',''. '');

after what?

When I placed it after

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="<?php echo FAVICON; ?>" type="image/x-icon" />

it did not reveal the favicon.

#How do I get my favicon to show in Internet Explorer?

a. Create and place a favicon.ico file in the root directory of your web server

b. Use meta tags to make reference to the file.

i. In includes/languages/english.php, add the following code after the Custom Keywords section

// Favicon define('FAVICON_CODE',''. '');

ii. In includes/ templates/ YOUR_TEMPLATE/ common/ html_header.php, add after ” />

Try these instructions here for 1.3.5/1.3.6:

Be sure to make a copy of your includes/english/meta_tags.php to alter,
then upload it to your includes/english/custom_your_template folder.

Re-bookmark your page, and the favicon should appear.

Thank you tshooters for your reply. Interesting matter this favicon is.

I found a comment here at the forums suggesting that I simply add an html tag for the favicon in common/html_header.php
It worked just fine.

Just tried a fav icon and I had to modify tpl_header, html_header AND Metatags before it would show up in the address bar and bookmarks in FF2 (works in IE7 and opera as well :) )

Perhaps you would share what those changes were? I have not had any trouble with Favicons showing in FF2.

Sorry should have said in my last post, thanks for the reminder!

in metatags, I removed the '//' in front of the define favicon line

in tpl_header & html_header I added the standard '<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico">'
