Re: Favicon
Not to resurect a dead thread, but can we clear this stuff up from the start to finish?
My web knowledge is pretty decent (enough to get me basic web master skills and know how things work) X-cart is NEW to me and so is css and tpl and omg what else is new... I have made my own favicon.ico. Simply put I took part of our logo (the O) and made it into a 16x16 favicon.ico with photoshop and a plugin. then I used icoFX 1.6 (freeware) and actually made it a legit 16x16 with 16 colors Windows Icon. I then put it into the root directory or the public_html folder on my site. My site is http://www.optic-industries.com Following the advice earlier on in this thread I edited my meta.tpl and inserted <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico"> towards the top around what I thought was right after two lines of code that I thought were other meta tag lines. I have cleared my IE 7 temp i-net files (cache I presume?) but I have yet to see our cool little O show up. I type http://www.optic-industries.com/favicon.ico I can see it show up there. Where did I go wrong here? I would like this little icon to be forced onto EVERYONE who comes to my site. I want to hear complaints about it in the newspapers in two days... That is how badly I want that to show up. So did I place the line of code into the wrong spot? I figured the meta tags should go before all of the if then statements in the meta.tpl... Any help please feel free to correct me here. stilly, the new webmaster...

Re: Favicon
Works for me in IE7.
It took a while to come in, as the site with all the graphics loaded quite slowly, and the favicon came in last - but it works.

Re: Favicon
Thank you yes.
I finally saw it today when I was at work. I was like, Hey, how did that occur when it was not showing up last night. I guess I was just too impatient in waiting for it to show up. I have some other issues that I need to work out with the site now including all of the little hidden texts and stuff. I noticed that when I googled it I saw it was number 4 on the list, but then the description of the site said it was an x-cart site and blah blah blah and not a description of the clothing line itself so I have to seek that out now and change it. Thank you for having a look and being fast with the reply. I know how web stuff works, my only question is WHY did it not show up on my computer right after I loaded it up? Yeah. I am still not seeing it on my editing computer. I will delete all of the files and see what is up with it. I am usinhg ie 7 too but it is not showing up... heh. I just deleted all of my i-net files and settings. Okay it works now. :\ Now then. I am left wondering if I needed to edit that one meta.tpl file or if I just needed to put the favicon into the directory. Any suggestions? Should I just leave it alone? I am wondering if it might come back to haunt me if I was not supposed to put it in there... :\ Thank you for the feedback. I have a few more things to tackle now...
