[SOLVED] Some favicons work, others don't
 

Hi,

I just added a 3rd site to my domain, it's called Rear Window. The main site is here while the other sub-site is here.

I have set the relative location of images to wp-content and put 3 distinct favicons, each with their own name in the wp-content/ata-images folder. The favicons of the existing sites both show correctly but I cannot make the favicon of the new site to show. Can you tell what I am doing wrong?

As much as you guys deserve it, I am out of money right now but I will make a donation in March.

Thanks,

Rutger

The icon is right here but it won't show: http://www.cornetsdegroot.com/htdocs...ear-window.ico

are these subdomains or is this a network (multi site) install?

Hi JD,

It's a network install, i.e. Multisite.
I followed the instructions, i.e. I have set the relative location of images to wp-content and put 3 distinct favicons, each with their own name in the wp-content/ata-images folder. However, I am not sure what to do with the instruction to give each multisite a unique folder name. I have created 3 separate folders named multi-01, multi-02, and multi-03 but is this relevant for the favicons? Shouldn't they be in the wp-content/ata-images folder?
As always, I appreciate your help!

Thanks,
Rutger

for a multi site, in place of the wp-contents/ata-images, you should have a
wp-contents/multi-01
wp-contents/multi-02
wp-contents/multi-03
and put the files for each multisite in the appropriate directory. Each site should have it's own files in it's directory. Lets say you wanted site 1 to have header1.jpg and site 2 to have header2.jpg, you would put header1,jpg in the folder wp-contents/multi-01/header and header2.jpg in the wp-contents/multi-02/header folder.

Hi JD,

Yes, and I have it set up like that. But should I put each favicon in each corresponding folder as well?

Thanks again!

Treat each of the sites separately. Everything (header images, logo, favicon) for a site goes in its multi-nn folder

Almost there... It shows now in IE and FF but Chrome still reverts to the icon of the main site... Is that a known issue?
I did clear the cache.

which site?

Very strange, all icons are working this new morning. While I wonder why that is I am marking this thread as solved. Thanks JD!
