favicon

[sapper]

I've designed a favicon for my site, but the instructions say to install it in the root directory,which file is the equivalent in phpbb3 ?

Yes I am a numpty :lol:

Found this one after searching on google 😛

First, make sure your favicon is called favicon.ico and it should be 16 X 16 pixels.

second, upload your favicon to the images directory of phpbb.

then, go to the Administration Control Panel, Styles, Templates.
Click on edit of Prosilver. go to overall_header.html

Near the top right after the META tags find {META}
after {META} paste in the following:

<link rel="icon" href="images/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="images/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />

click submit and then you're finished.

The META tags mentioned above is also where you'd want to put your site
description and keywords if you're interested in putting them in. Make sure they
go in between the quotes "". Again, click submit.

Hope it will help 🙂 also remember mate

Google is your friend 😀

Thanks for that

I'd aready done the site description and keywords, but the google site I found just said root directory, I wanted confirmation from someone who know's what they are doing 😀

All I have to do now is hope I've done it right and that the bots find it !! :cheer:
