Hey Guys,

Under site icons, I’ve put my favicon in there and it’s working great on the site.

However, that favicon is not showing when I’m logged into WordPress on the admin side. Is there CSS I can use to make sure that same favicon shows up on the admin side too?

Site is mikemobley.com

Thank you!

Hello There,

Thanks for writing in!

Because this requires a template change, I’d advise that you setup a child theme. This allows you to make code changes that won’t be overwritten when an X update is released.

Then add following code to child theme function.php file:

add_action('admin_head', 'show_favicon');
function show_favicon() {
echo '<link href="FAVICON IMAGE URL" rel="icon" type="image/x-icon">';
}

Note: Replace FAVICON IMAGE URL in above code with the URL of your favicon image.

Thanks.
