  • Hello,

    Please open your header.php file and insert this line in head part.
    insert your favecon image here : “wp-content/themes/yourtheme/images/favicon.ico”

    <link rel=”shortcut icon” href=”<?php echo get_stylesheet_directory_uri(); ?>/images/favicon.ico” />

    Please open your header.php file and insert this line in head part.

    Laxman? Please don’t recommend that other users modify their theme that way. When the theme is updated their changes will be lost.

    Instead recommend that axmasca create and activate a child theme of Pisces, make a copy of the header.php file into the child directory and make the changes there.

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

    Or in this case just use a favicon plugin.

    Hello Jan Dembowski,

    ok sure

    thanks to both of you.
    i’ve added the new line on child’s header and it runs in 3 of 4 pages: if i use a plugin (All in one Favicon) it runs in every page…why?
    ps
    i prefer always to use plugins less than possible in my sites…

    Hey,

    As Jan already suggested, if you’re making changed to theme files, please do so in a Child Theme. It’s kinda easy to setup.

    Alternative way: use a plugin. Actually, I’ve never used one, and can’t really recommend which one would work the best. If your installed plugin breaks the layout, please provide me with a link, so that I could see what’s the problem and might suggest you some fixes.

    Alternative way #2: if you have FTP access, just drop in favicon.ico into /public_html/ and /wp-content/themes/pisces/ 🙂 It should also do the trick 🙂

    If you have any further questions, or you would want to provide me with an URL / login credentials, feel free to shoot me an email at hello@wplovin.com
