Add favicon to your forum. Favicon provided, FontAwesome favicon generator links too!

Simple solution for those who have asked or are planning to ask how to add a favicon to their forum.

Add to headerinclude:



Download Upload.zip below and extract it and there is a folder called images with an icon called favicon.ico...., put that image in your forums images or themes directory..

example: yourforum/images/favicon.ico

If you want a different favicon and don't have the ability to make one yourself, you could always try something simple like:

https://paulferrett.com/fontawesome-favicon/  * to generate say a font-awesome 4.7 based favicon

And you would modify the headerinclude to reflect the icon name change for example:



Or use: https://gauger.io/fonticon/ for creating fontawesome 5 favicons with the ability to layer!

And that option keeps the image name as favicon.ico  so this would still work without modification in headerinclude:





Note: FYI, the reason linking the favicon in the theme is better than just dropping a favicon into root directory is that with linking it in the theme you can have theme specific favicons.
