Upload custom favicon#11

Upload an image (instead of just an emoji)

Could be solved with #24 header directive

Solved with a header directive

Not working, settings will be overridden by default icon.

Thanks for reporting. I’ve moved the default icon beneath the header directive. This should solve it.

Still not working on my end, I might be doing something wrong, here is the favicon I’m trying to set with an header directive

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="data:image/png;base64,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">

It’s probably working. Favicons are cached by the browser, so you may not see it updating on your end. Try looking at it on a device that hasn’t been to your blog before. You can flush your favicon cache as well, but it’s a bit more complciated:

This isn’t working. Becase the default icon is beneath the header directive, it always overrides anything we set in the header directive using <link rel="" href="">. The only option is to set favicon on the dashboard which limits it to emojis rather than arbitrary images.

Please consider fixing.

I’ve run into the same issue as Rajatkateja

Noticing a similar issue to @Rajatkateja and @Spencer Williams

Re-opening this feature request. Will take a look today.

I’ve added the ability to completely remove the emoji favicon by removing the favicon: 🐼 attribute in your dashboard. This will prevent the overwriting of your favicons.

I suspect, however, that the issue experienced by most of your is favicon caching (which is complicated to flush). That being said, now you can removing the emoji favicon entirely.

You can now set your favicon to be an emoji or a url to an image in the favicon attribute.

Eg:

favicon: https://cdn-icons-png.flaticon.com/128/6955/6955628.png

or

favicon: 🌱
