How to add a Favicon

[MatthewSchenker]

Good Morning,
Thank you for this discussion!  I had been running the Favicon modification, because I thought it was necessary.  I just uninstalled the modification, and what do you know -- the favicon still appears!  That's one less modification I need to run.
Thanks again,
Matthew

There is a mod that will do it for you on smf

You really don't need a mod to this for you. You simply place use a site like | http://tools.dynamicdrive.com/favicon/ to convert your image to a favicon and then place the converted image at the root of where SMF is installed. The browser does the rest for you. No code changes need to be made.

Place it in the area where the directories Sources, Themes, Packages etc.... are located.
Remember to clear your browser cache also.
