It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when
used with more recent versions of WordPress.

## Description

[Check out the latest WordPress deals for your site.](https://appsumo.com/search?tags=wordpress&utm_source=sumo&utm_medium=wp-widget&utm_campaign=all-in-one-favicon)

All In One Favicon adds favicons to your site and your admin pages.
 You can either
use favicons you already uploaded or use the builtin upload mechanism to upload 
a favicon to your WordPress installation.

All three favicon types are supported – .ico, .png and .gif (may be animated)
 Also,
Apple Touch Icons are supported.

Is your native language missing?
 Translating the plugin is easy if you understand
english and are fluent in another language. I described in the [FAQ](https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/all-in-one-favicon/faq/)
how the translation works.

## Installation

### Upgrading From A Previous Version

To upgrade from a previous version of this plugin, use the built in update feature
of WordPress or copy the files on top of the current installation.

### Installing The Plugin

Either use the built in plugin installation feature of WordPress, or extract all
files from the ZIP file, making sure to keep the file structure intact, and then
upload it to `/wp-content/plugins/`.
 Then just visit your admin area and activate
the plugin. That’s it!

### Configuring The Plugin

Go to the settings page and and upload your Favicon(s) or add the path/URL to already
existing Favicon(s).

## FAQ

 * Internet Explorer: Why does my favicon show up in the backend but not in the 
   frontend or not at all?
    Internet Explorer behaves weird, not only when favicons
   are concerned. You may take a look at this [FAQ](http://jeffcode.blogspot.com/2007/12/why-doesnt-favicon-for-my-site-appear.html).
 * Why is All In One Favicon not available in my language?
    I speak German and English
   fluently, but unfortunately no other language well enough to do a translation.
   Would you like to help? Translating the plugin is easy if you understand English
   and are fluent in another language.
 * How do I translate All In One Favicon?
    Take a look at the WordPress site and
   identify [your language code](https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_in_Your_Language):
   e.g. the language code for German is `de_DE`.
    1.  download [POEdit](http://www.poedit.net/)
    2.  download All In One Favicon (from your FTP server or from [WordPress.org](https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/all-in-one-favicon/))
    3.  copy the file `localization/aio-favicon-en_EN.po` and rename it. (in this case`
        aio-favicon-de_DE.po`)
    4.  open the file with POEdit.
    5.  translate all strings. Things like `{total}` or `%1$s` mean that a value will
        be inserted later.
    6.  The string that says “English translation by Arne …”, this is where you put
        your name, website (or email) and your language in. 😉
    7.  (optional) Go to POEdit -> Catalog -> Settings and enter your name, email, 
        language code etc
    8.  Save the file. Now you will see two files, `aio-favicon-de_DE.po` and `aio-
        favicon-de_DE.mo`.
    9.  Upload your files to your FTP server into the All In One Favicon directory (
        usually `/wp-content/plugins/all-in-one-favicon/`)
    10. When you are sure that all translations are working correctly, send the po-
        file to me and I will put it into the next All In One Favicon version.
 * My question isn’t answered here. What do I do now?
    Feel free to open a thread
   at [the All In One Favicon WordPress.org forum](https://wordpress.org/tags/all-in-one-favicon?forum_id=10#postform).
   I’ll include new FAQs in every new version.

On my localhost using WAMP this plugin will not upload any file so it is useless.

Can’t you simply add the size of the files that we need to submit to upload?

Only tool that worked to show my favicon in the wp-admin backend and generally on
the Chrome Browser. Great work!

 [WebDeb](https://profiles.wordpress.org/sillymoney/) June 20, 2017

Was hoping to find a solution since the “site identity” control is hidden in wp 
customizer with Elegant Nimble theme. A red error box flashes at the top of the 
page upon saving – can’t read the error as it disapears. In the end it did not work
out for us.
