Good enough for me.  I put it up on the new server.

Might need to be added to the forum sub-directory too, as it's not loading for the forums.

Added it there, but still not displaying for me.

IIRC the favicon has never shown up for the forum.


It doesn't show up in the editor either.

The only reason I asked was because the AARoads forums has the icon.  Is there any other ideas to somehow get it to show up?

Was it properly named 'favicon.ico'?

Looks like you figured it out, as the favicon is now loading for the forums. :)

Well, it is now for Firefox at least.  Shows up in my copy of Chrome too.  Maybe it's ISP dependent, who knows.

Try Ctrl+F5 for the force refresh in Chrome?

Re: favicon, I noticed I installed as favicon.png, which was good for the TM site, but the forum was looking for favicon.ico specifically.

Favicon: My browser tabs show all the same favicon now and I cannot distinguish forum tabs and site tabs. @yakra: Is it possible to change the forum favicon a little bit? Maybe w/o the red check or a .... green check?

I only proposed the original idea, but didn't make the actual image.

Maybe use a 'yellow' one w/ black road & white checkmark for the forums?
