    I had uploaded a theme and a favicon months ago and I am trying to upload another theme but the old favicon wont go away. I have deleted the theme and every file that comes with it, I have even uninstalled WP and re installed it and still nothing. I cant find where the favicon is for the life of me. Please any suggestions. Oh and I do not have any favicon plugins installed either

    Head into the header.php and look for the line defining the favicon

    should look something like this:

    <link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.yoursite.com/favicon.ico" />

    Head to the end of that (right before the quote close) and add ?v=2
    New line would look like this

    <link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.yoursite.com/favicon.ico?v=2" />
