Chris,

I didn't change anything in the header. Very strange!

I only changed the footer code in an attempt to fix the backstretch issue on iPhone by replacing the code with the code you provided for another user but I had to change it back to the original because the new code caused the home page image to disappear on all devices.

Anyway, I now have a favicon! It worked beautifully! Thank you!

Hi there,

Looking at your source code, the favicon URL is saying...

http://www.obsidianbutterflyproductions.com/favicon.ico

The theme is using the "get_template_directory_uri" function to grab the location of the theme, so the favicon URL should say...

http://obsidianbutterflyproductions.com/wp-content/themes/producer/favicon.ico

Have you made any edits to the template files or are you using a plugin/setting that affects the location of your WordPress install? To manually fix this, open up header.php and on line 10 chane the following from this...

<link rel="icon" href="http://obsidianbutterflyproductions.com/wp-content/themes/producer/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />

...to this...

<link rel="icon" href="<?php echo get_template_directory_uri(); ?>/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />

Thanks!

Chris

Hi there,

Looks correct from what I see. Can you provide a link to your site? I'll take a look and see if it shows up for me.

Thanks!

Good morning! You are up and working early! Thank you very much. Here is a screen shot of my ftp file tree. Please let me know if I've put the .ico file in the right place.

Hi there,

There isn't a favicon.ico folder. favicon.ico is the name of the favicon file/image you're wanting to use. In other words, you need to make a .ico file named "favicon".

Hope that helps!

Chris

Okay. I looked through the ftp and did not find a favicon.ico folder. So I dropped the into the images folder. But still do not see my icon. Please let me know. I can do a screen shot if you need more info. Let me know. http://www.obsidianbutterflyproductions.com

I think I dropped it into the themes folder. I will double check and let you know. Thank you

Hi there,

The theme looks for the "favicon.ico" file in the theme folder. Example...

wp-content > themes > producer > favicon.ico

If that's how you have it setup, can you provide a link to your site? I'll take a look.

Thanks!

Chris

Hi Chris!

I placed the favicon.ico in my themes folder via ftp and I do not see my favicon. If I'm understanding the previous thread, I placed it in the right place. Correct? Is there a particular folder within Themes that I should place it?

Hi there,

Just drop your favicon.ico file/image in the theme folder.

Thanks!

Dear all,
I have a problem with the favicon only since 'ive installed this theme.
Its location did not change (http://www.ateliervfx.com/favicon.ico) so do guys have any idea where the problem could come from?
Many thanks

it pulls the feed url with a WordPress function

if you want to change it you'll need to edit the link in the footer.php(line 25)

I was able to get the fav icon simply by uploading the .ico image through ftp however I still need some assistance with the rss feed link at the footer

http://www.addisonsandoval.com

instead of /feed it should point to /categories/blog/feed where there is actual writing for the rss feed to relay

thanks

2.can you post a link to your site?

hey Molitor, I also wanted to point out that the RSS feed link at the bottom of the site is not working... I think because there are no word posts on the home page mostly just images (slider) the default rss link is /feed. Would you mind showing me how to change it to /category/blog/feed for example, because there are actually readable posts there for the RSS to load.
