I put mine in the root, then I added this line below the

Code:

echo "<head>\n";

I put this

Code:

echo "<link rel=\"shortcut icon\" href=\"./favicon.ico\"/>
<link rel=\"SHORTCUT ICON\" href=\"favicon.ico\"/>";

Then I canceled out what evo put in like this.

FIND:

Code:

if ((($favicon = $cache->load('favicon', 'config')) === false) || empty($favicon)) {

if (file_exists(NUKE_BASE_DIR.'favicon.ico')) {
$favicon = "themes/$ThemeSel/images/favicon.ico";

} else if (file_exists(NUKE_IMAGES_DIR.'favicon.ico')) {
$favicon = "images/favicon.ico";

} else if (file_exists(NUKE_THEMES_DIR.$ThemeSel.'/images/favicon.ico')) {
$favicon = "favicon.ico";

} else {

$favicon = 'none';
}
if ($favicon != 'none') {
echo "<link rel=\"shortcut icon\" href=\"$favicon\" type=\"image/x-icon\">\n";
}
$cache->save('favicon', 'config', $favicon);

} else {

if ($favicon != 'none') {
echo "<link rel=\"shortcut icon\" href=\"$favicon\" type=\"image/x-icon\">\n";
}
}

Change to:

Code:

/* if ((($favicon = $cache->load('favicon', 'config')) === false) || empty($favicon)) {

if (file_exists(NUKE_BASE_DIR.'favicon.ico')) {
$favicon = "themes/$ThemeSel/images/favicon.ico";

} else if (file_exists(NUKE_IMAGES_DIR.'favicon.ico')) {
$favicon = "images/favicon.ico";

} else if (file_exists(NUKE_THEMES_DIR.$ThemeSel.'/images/favicon.ico')) {
$favicon = "favicon.ico";

} else {

$favicon = 'none';
}
if ($favicon != 'none') {
echo "<link rel=\"shortcut icon\" href=\"$favicon\" type=\"image/x-icon\">\n";
}
$cache->save('favicon', 'config', $favicon);

} else {

if ($favicon != 'none') {
echo "<link rel=\"shortcut icon\" href=\"$favicon\" type=\"image/x-icon\">\n";
}
}

Okay, now which part of the change to code do I add the link to my favicon cause I have it uploaded to photobucket which I might change because they keep messing up on me, have any suggestions for a more stable image host?

your favicon.ico needs to be on your site, in the root.

Read the post I did above, the answers are right there. I am truly sorry, but questions like where in my root when I said it at least twice in this thread to put it in your root is one of the things that really annoy's me. If it was going to be any where else, I would say that spot, but when I say put it in the root, then it should go in the root folder. If I said put it in the images folder in the root, then that would mean put it in the images folder in the root, public_html/images/

But I did not say that, I said the root, just put it in the root. Please read what instructions we give you for the answers are plain as day. I can not dumb down the answer anymore unless I do it for you or I do a video tutorial, which i wont for this to me is not hard enough to merit me doing one and wasting more of my bandwidth.

As for the coding, its already in the post above also. If you put this into your header.php,

Code:

echo "<link rel=\"shortcut icon\" href=\"./favicon.ico\"/>
<link rel=\"SHORTCUT ICON\" href=\"favicon.ico\"/>";

then you already linked it, look at the code, study it a little, work on your problem solving. Its the lack of effort and actually looking at the stuff before posting questions like this that gets to me.

I have no problem helping, but a little effort is required on your part. Also, DO NOT TRY using a .gif, or a .jpg or any other image as a favorite icon. You need to use a .ico and no, they are not created by changing the file type.

Google if you don't know how to, there are favorite icon converters out there online where you upload your image and it converts it for you free.

both links you posted were dead links

EDIT: It was a comma that was at the end of your URL, I edited your post and put a space after it and now the URL works fine.

First link is working and Second is dead.

With the first link the favicon is working in IE, but not Firefox for me.
