Hi,

So I’m trying to change my favicon. I set one before my theme was up and running, and now I can’t get rid of it. I’ve turned my logo into and .ico file and uploaded it to my media library (see below). Then set the URL path in the box in site icons. But I still have my old favicon! What should I try next?

Also, I’m trying to put a transparent text box running along the bottom of the image on my home page. Can I do that? I want it to say “Officiant and Wedding Ceremony Services.” Embedding it on the image itself would result in it being off-center when the browser window resizes, which is not ideal.

Thank you!

Hello There,

Thanks for providing the credentials for your site. I have tried changing the favicon in the customizer, Appearance > Customize > Site Icons. There must be something blocking it or force the default favicon which is your hosting logo. Would you mind providing us the ftp login credentials so we can take a closer look? This is to ensure that we can provide you with a tailored answer to your situation. Once you have provided us with your credentials, we will be happy to assist you with everything.

Hi Elizabeth,

Upon checking, the new Favicon is now working on your site. Please check attached screenshots.

Great! Thank you!

What about the transparent text box? Is that possible?

Thanks!

Hi there,

Try adding the following JavaScript code into your Customizer, Custom > JavaScript section. Replace Your Text Here with your own content.

jQuery(function() {
  jQuery( '<div class="my-text">Your Text Here</div>' ).insertAfter( ".home .site" );
});

Then add the following CSS rule under Customizer, Custom > CSS area.

.my-text {
    border: 1px solid #ffffff;
    bottom: 0;
    color: #ffffff;
    left: 40%;
    padding: 10px;
    position: absolute;
}

Hope that helps.

Hi! The old favicon still appears when I go to the Blog site (“Smitten in the Mitten”).

Thank you!

Hi Elizabeth,

Upon checking, the URL you have added here: Appearance > Customize > Site Icons > Favicon (Set Path to Image Below) is not existing. Please change it to an existing Icon.

Hope this helps.

I re-added the .ico file and set the path, but the old favicon is still showing when I’m on the blog site. It had something to do with my Bluehost account (see details above) before, so maybe it’s still the problem?

Thanks!

Hi There,

I am another support, is this your new icon?

It is showing up on my end.

Try to clear your browser’s cache.

Thanks.
