Favicon Not Appearing
Never mind. I got it. it had to go into the customer home.tpl too.
half a day for a 16 x 16 pixel graphic.... Good thing I don't have to pay me. I altered the Meta tpl to add a favicon icon. I did this from the first page of Edit Templates, It shows up in admin but not in the store. What am I missing here? Namaste, di www.mycharmsonline.com/x-cart/

Re: Favicon Not Appearing
Did you put favicon.ico in site root (not in store directory) ?
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" /> [EDIT] I see what you did: <link href="http://www.mycharmsonline.com/charms.ico" rel="SHORTCUT ICON" /> change this to: <link href="/charms.ico" rel="SHORTCUT ICON" /> (no need to use http://domain.com/ in a link on your site. You should always use absolute links on the same domain when possible.) PS -- please update your forum signature with your version of x-cart http://forum.x-cart.com/profile.php?do=editsignature

Re: Favicon Not Appearing
Can someone share with me what exactly I need to do to add a favicon to my X-cart installation.
In my server error log there has got to be 100 errors: [Wed Oct 14 12:48:07 2009] [error] [client 66.64.159.250] File does not exist: /home/tactical/public_html/favicon.ico

Re: Favicon Not Appearing
This worked for me:
Open skin1 > customer > meta.tpl And add this code <link href="/favicon.ico" rel="SHORTCUT ICON" /> - below the 5th row (under <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset={$default_charset|default:"iso-8859-1"}" />) Then add your favicon.ico file (by the way, you can create these in photoshop by creating a 16 x 16 pixel image and then saving as a .ico file ( if you have created a 16 x 16px image/canvas the .ico option should appear in the filetypes list) - I am using Photoshop CS3. Hope this helps!

Re: Favicon Not Appearing
I am getting the same problem. The favicon is showing on the admin page but not the store pages. I also notice it appears on flat html pages as well.

Re: Favicon Not Appearing
Give it some time, especially in Firefox - sometimes it can take a day to appear.
