Title: Can't get my favicon working Post by: Lorenzo on February 23, 2015, 03:31:35 AM One of the websites I set up recently is a Free Bitcoin Disposal Service (http://bitcoin.jacktopia.com/). Problem is, I can't seem to be able to get the favicon working. I grabbed the favicon from this forum via this link (http://bitcointalk.org/favicon.ico). Now, my site works offline but for some reason, it doesn't show up once I transfer the files via FTP and the site is actually online. The relevant part of the code is:
Code: <link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico"> Which points to the favicon.ico (http://bitcoin.jacktopia.com/favicon.ico) file which is in the same directory as index.html (http://bitcoin.jacktopia.com/index.html). Does anyone know what's going on and how I can get the favicon to show up? The only explanation I can think of is that Bitcointalk's favicon is a fake which seems pretty unlikely.

Is your command in the <head> section? Try adding the file type, making it a direct link, and removing the space. That's all I can think of to help with various browser issues. For example: <link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="http://bitcoin.jacktopia.com/favicon.ico"> Title: Re: Can't get my favicon working Post by: TotalShift on February 23, 2015, 03:44:52 AM Your favicon is working on side. Did you fix it already?
Title: Re: Can't get my favicon working Post by: Lethn on February 23, 2015, 07:40:05 AM I've had this problem before but I've forgotten how I fixed it properly, I think there's just a delay between the upload time and the time it takes for the website updates itself.

That's it. Sometimes the speed of electrons is slower on some parts of the globe. ::) BTW, it's working.

you should close the thread when problem is solved Title: Re: Can't get my favicon working Post by: Lorenzo on February 24, 2015, 08:27:08 PM Yeah, it looks like I was just a bit too impatient because it's showing up now. Bit weird because I had uploaded another site in the same domain space afterward and the favicon displayed instantly but I guess that's the Internet for ya.
Now closing this thread. Thanks for the help. :) |
