I placed favicon.ico in the follow dir:
/favicon.ico
/public_html/favicon.ico
/public_html/vb/favicon.ico
/public_html/vb/admincp/favicon.ico

/vb being my forum dir.

Still only works on the links I add only? Not the threads or index.php

Mine never picked it up on it's own. I had to put the code in my templates.

If the original code that was provided earlier in this thread doesn't work try this. It's crude, but it should work.

PHP Code:


			
<link rel="shortcut icon" href=" the ico url" />

where I have the text "the ico url' delete that and place the full url to whatever location you have your ico stored at between the "".

Place that code in your headerincludes template.

If that doesn't work let me know and I will give mine yet another look to make sure I didn't stash the code in any other templates as well.

I have had one in my root forever. Works great in FF IE doesnt like it.

Does IE even reconize ico's? I have never bothered to pay attention. It has been so long since I even used IE.

I have the code in there now.

Maybe its IE?

Do you have another browser like Foxfire by Mozilla that you could look at it in. If not, drop me a link and I can look from Foxfire to see if it is showing there.

EDIT: I looked at the one that you have listed as your home page. It is showing in the forum, bt not on your portal page. Try added the code to the portal template. As I have never run the portal, I don't know what template that would be.

I think IE strips whatever info is needed to display it.

angelicGrace · #18 05-26-2005, 01:39 AM

Just cause of this thread I had to actualy open IE and look for myself. lol It does appear that ico's don't show. I think you might be correct mholtum.

dreck · #19 05-26-2005, 03:05 AM

I dont have Foxfire or Mozilla on this puter. I will boot linux in the mornin & try mozilla.
Yes, the site is same as my home page thisdarncar.com

angelicGrace · #20 05-26-2005, 03:17 AM

Yours is showing in Foxfire.

its a very cute little car.

My guess is that mholtum is correct, that IE just doesn't deal with them.

Like I said the only thing I see missing is it isn't showing in your portal, but my guess is you would have to edit a protal tempate for it to show in that case.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
