Favicon problem in Thegem
Closed

Comments

  • chaiyafarmer started the conversation

    Hello,

    I have problem with favicon. It does not appear in google search.

    I have been looking into it and i found something surprising.

    I looked into the code of my html page (see attached file).

    Then i used a favicon checker to see what is wrong (see attached file).

    Thegem does not implement many icon type and size.

    I would like to implement all of them via the following code and tried to add to the header.php but there is no mention of favicon at all in headers.php :

    <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="57x57" href="/favicon/apple-icon-57x57.png">
    <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="60x60" href="/favicon/apple-icon-60x60.png">
    <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="72x72" href="/favicon/apple-icon-72x72.png">
    <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="76x76" href="/favicon/apple-icon-76x76.png">
    <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="114x114" href="/favicon/apple-icon-114x114.png">
    <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="120x120" href="/favicon/apple-icon-120x120.png">
    <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="144x144" href="/favicon/apple-icon-144x144.png">
    <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="152x152" href="/favicon/apple-icon-152x152.png">
    <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="180x180" href="/favicon/apple-icon-180x180.png">
    <link rel="icon" type="image/png" sizes="192x192"  href="/favicon/android-icon-192x192.png">
    <link rel="icon" type="image/png" sizes="32x32" href="/favicon/favicon-32x32.png">
    <link rel="icon" type="image/png" sizes="96x96" href="/favicon/favicon-96x96.png">
    <link rel="icon" type="image/png" sizes="16x16" href="/favicon/favicon-16x16.png">
    <link rel="manifest" href="/favicon/manifest.json">
    <meta name="msapplication-TileColor" content="#ffffff">
    <meta name="msapplication-TileImage" content="/favicon/ms-icon-144x144.png">
    <meta name="theme-color" content="#ffffff">

    So my question is how to change how thegem control the favicon instead of WP ? and where to implement this code exactly ? Does thegem use a special template or php file to manage the favicon ?

    Thanks in advance

    Please note that i just changed/added the favicon for a test purpose in thegem theme option + WP Customise/site identity  + added the favicon.ico to the wp root folder. Not sure it will appear in Google but i just asked for re-indexing of my homepage.

    Hi,

    You don't need to set all sizes, just add your icon in the theme options, but if you want to set all sizes, remove the icon from the theme options and add your code to the header.php template before the </head> tag. (For safe future updates, copy the template to a child theme before editing)
