Favicon
 

Anyone know where to put a favicon icon to add to a bookmark

Made a page so you can bookmark but cannot get the favicon to display

Where would you put the link
Where would you put the favicon.ico

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" >

Thanks

Garry

Bythe way found a brill site to make favicoms FREE

http://www.html-kit.com/e/favicon.cgi

Just put favicon.ico in web root, without any link: http://www.inkjetcartridgesuk.com

I haven't done this myself, but this info was in a post by Stephen Hatton:

To have your icon saved with the links, you need to put the following line in the home.tpl file in your Б─°/myshop/schemes/templates/2-columns/customer/home.tplБ─² file (or 2-columns_reversed, 3-columns_reversed, small_shop directory):
Б─°<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="/favicon.ico">Б─² without the outside quotes just before the Б─°</HEAD>Б─² line.
This will embed the icon link into the header of each page.

Maybe it will help you.

Ok put that code in

Customer/home.tpl

Still not adding icon??

Garry

I guess this may have something to do with the location of the favicon, but I notice that your code doesn't have the / before favicon.ico

Yours,
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" >
the original:
<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="/favicon.ico">

Can't be sure this is the answer though.

Mm the slash is in the home.tpl

Whre else do you mean ??

Garry

All I can tell from here is that the / doesn't appear in the html code for home.php or in the catalog. Sorry, but I don't know why it isn't there, but if it was me, this is what I would try and solve first.

If you want to email me a favicon, to save me making one, I will try and replicate the problem here and see if I can can get it working using this code.

Garry, problem is non existing/incorrect favicon.ico or server setting, take a look...I can't see favicon using direct link:
http://www.inkjetcartridgesuk.com/favicon.ico

You can put the following line in the home.tpl file to be 100% secure about favicon link:
