[P®od]

So i've followed all the instructions i could find everywhere to get my favicon to work but it simply won't come up! Any suggestions.

Here also is a link to the instructions i followed.

Just add the following code before </head> in your overall_header.html file of your style template:

<link REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="YOUR FAVICON LINK">

Clear your forum and browser cache to view it.

Tried this and still not working for some reason.

Make sure you add it to the style you are using and also check the favicon link is working or not.

<link REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="http://applegossip.net/home/sharlen/public_html/favicon.ico">

This is what you have at the moment on your forum. That does not lead to an image hence why it doesn't show

This is what you need to use is this instead

<link REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="http://applegossip.net/favicon.ico">

I have also moved this topic to the correct forum.
