Favicon in SharePoint

Peter Alan

I just added my favicon to my site. Here is how I did it:

1) Saved the favicon.ico file in my Images library.
2) Edited the Master page and add the following code, I have an absolute link for my icon.
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.*.com/images/favicon.ico">

This worked great. Remember that you have to do this in every master page on your site if you want it to show up in the other sites.

Also, I found that if I changed the favicon, I was trying different ones, that I would have to close all my browsers for it to refresh to the new favicon, it seems that the browser caches the favicon.
