I know this has been asked before, and i did search it. I want to change my favicon and <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico"> between <head></head> isnt working for me. I use RAWR-Template-0.1.1.tpl and HFS (2.3 beta, build 198). Please tell me how I could possibly change this. I added it to the root "/favicon.ico". thanks

add your own favicon.ico file to the root/home of the virtual file system.
no need to change the template.

im not sure i understand. I right click on the house / and added file (favicon.ico) but i dont see it in any browser. im not really sure what you mean. my exe is on the desktop, i have an index page and another .htm page also. My main folder for files is /files and i have an upload folder /uploads. if this helps any.

yes, that's how it is supposed to be.

however, i noticed RAWR template doesn't have the link to the favicon, so you'll have to edit the template also

You had it correct:

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico"/>

Somewhere between the <head></head> markup tags of the template. Above the </head> preferably so you don't accidentally delete something important :P

You may have to clear your browser cache to view the new icon, sometimes it will store the original one for the domain and it wont change.

OK I have a question on this. If you have a domain name you are re-directing to a NO-IP domain the favicon will not show. If you use the NO-IP direct domain it will show. Any ideas how to fix?

No, I believe NO-IP uses a frame? from memory anyway... so you cannot change the favicon.

no-ip uses a frame as one of the offered methods (not the default one, to my memory)
