Hey guys, this isn't a new problem I have had, however I usually use a workaround method to make my ico show in the tool bar. I really want to try to use the default header.tpl settings for showing the icon, but even though I know I have the ico image I want in the folder, it is still showing the ubb default. I have checked the image in the folder and it is correct. However if I try to do forums/images/general/default (or whatever that style sheet uses i.e. default_dark is another one)... it shows the wrong image. Am I missing something here or do I just have to go back to taking that out of header.tpl and just writing my own ico handling exception?

your favicon is showing up for me.. it's prolly a caching issue..

HTML
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/forums/images/general/STYLESHEET/favicon.ico" />

from your forum page(s)

'STYLESHEET' is for each one you have..

note: another thing i do is to also upload a favicon to the root (public_html) as well. this allows for any other pages which don't specify to be provided with a sorta 'default' one.

Ok I guess it was simply I had to delete the ico and re-paste it in the folder with a folder closeout. When I overwrote the file it just didn't take the first time. Looks like I got it sorted Thanks guys.
