XF 2.1 ICO Image

[webbouk]

For some strange reason the tab for my website doesn't show the ICO image unless I have an alert.

It's probably easier to explain in pictures...

Without an Alert:


With an Alert:


It's not something I've noticed before. Is there a setting somewhere I might have missed out ?



Thanks

I dont see an image in any of your page tabs. Have you got a favicon.ico file in your forums root directory, because when typing it in the address bar, it isn't showing as there is one?

Thanks Davey, for some reason the file had been changed, most likely during an upload and I didn't notice.

All present and correct now



For future reference, and to help anyone else out there, I used this website to generate a new one:

The ultimate favicon generator. Design your icons platform per platform and make them look great everywhere. Including in Google results pages.

Did you just load an image named logo.png to the server or did you change the style property?

The file was named favicon.ico but the content was unreadable.

I think it was one I edited a while back and saved as favicon.ico but in png format and somehow uploaded it replacing the one that did work. If that makes sense

Using the generator in my above post created several types to be used by different platforms and browsers. It saved a lot of messing about
