I have a favicon.ico in my /public_html directory. When you go to my page, it appears until the page finishes loading, and then it goes to a blue square. (The same blue square appears as the site icon for glfusion.org)

I've tried clearing the cache in C&C. The icon appears as page loads, and then goes to blue box.

Any idea how I can keep my favicon [img]http://www.StarWarsGuide.net/favicon.ico[/img]active

BTW, I checked your favicon [img]http://www.glfusion.org/favicon.ico[/img] and it doesn't seem to be working on your site either.

I'm using IE8 and cross checking with Chrome.

If you want to replace the facicon and you are using the Nouveau theme (default for glFusion), please your favicon.ico in the public_html/layout/nouveau/ directory, that should pick it up so it will always be used.

Thanks!

I am having the same problem. I tried your suggestion Mark and also tried the public_html/layout/nouveau/images directory, no luck. I am currently on glFusion 1.1.5.pl2 and also expirienced it with the last release. I have performed a ctrl-F5 and a Clear Cache in Command & Control.

I did mistype the previous post. The favicon.ico should go in the public_html/layout/nouveau/images/ directory.

If we look at the htmlheader.thtml template, it has the following line:

Based on this, it should pick up the correct icon if placed in the layout/nouveau/images/ directory.

You may need to clear the template cache (Command & Control -> Clear Cache) and that should do it.

Thanks!

You may need to clear the template cache (Command & Control -> Clear Cache)

Tried that and it didn't make a difference. I know it's there, when I type mysite.com/layout/nouveau/images/favicon.ico I see it.

I think browsers really like to cache the favicon. I replaced the one here, cleared the cache, hit ctrl-f5, still showed the old one. I exited my browser, ran ccleaner (which clears the browser cache), loaded the site and there it was!

Thanks!

Thanks Mark, that worked.
