How to change dnn's default Favicon?

host posted on 2008-05-06

For any new dotnetnuke installation you have a default dotnetnuke logo look favicon showing on your web page's brower tab. To change it:

1. Create a new icon (any size) you would like to use;

2. Go to http://www.chami.com/html-kit/services/favicon/ and upload your new icon image and your new favicon will be created;

3. Download the newly created "favicon.ico", save it to your dnn root folder or any other sub folders if you prefer.

4. Open Default.aspx page, add the following line within<head></head>:

<link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" href="/Portals/_default/favicon.ico" />
(the path is where you saved the icon)

5. Upload the new favicon.ico; upload the updated Default.aspx.

Refresh your page and you should be able to see the change.

		I tired this and everything seems ok except that that it still shows the old icon...?

		It could be the cache... try to delete the dotnetnuke fav icon (or replace it with the one you want to use ) under the root folder...

		Just drop the favicon in the “portals/PortalID” folder instead. Done!
