I think you are suppose to save it with .ico
not .png
and make sure you put in the root directory of your web site, for example:
http://www.computerblog.com/favicon.ico
or put the favicon.ico in the root directory of your word press directory.
one of those ways will work.
I did save it as a .ico, sorry that’s what I meant.
It’s in my root now, I’ll try it in the WP root though.
EDIT: I tried that, still doesn’t work =(
put this inside the <head> </head> tags
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://paulritter.co.nr/favicon.ico" />
and it should catch it ?
Might help if the code in your header was pointing at the same domain that your page is on?
Site: http://paulritter.co.nr/
Link to favicon: http://paul.buildtolearn.net/wp/favicon.ico
I am, I put it in the /wp/ directory and here’s my code:
<LINK REL=”SHORTCUT ICON” HREF=”http://paul.buildtolearn.net/wp/favicon.ico”>
And I put it in the head of my header.php file…why won’t it work?
If I go to http://paul.buildtolearn.net/wp, Firefox shows me the Favicon.
I was looking at the address linked from your name, which is http://paulritter.co.nr/.
The address needs to match for Favicons to work, IIRC.
