Any tips on how to change the favicon displayed by Xoops?

I've done the obvious things like replacing the favicon at the XOOPS install root level, in the theme, and putting one at the root of www and root of the account... overkill really.

Yet still, no change, which defies my logic.

So any ideas? Is there a cache issue at work here, or am I just missing something?

Thanks!

did you upload the image as .ico extension? if yes, then erase your browsers cache and refresh your page, it should appear like this.

Be aware that IE is very tricky when it comes to favicons.
Many times it will only show the favicon after you have added the site to your favorites. Sometimes it's enough to just clean the cache - but thats only 10% of the times.
Firefox is much better to update the favicon - although it also sometimes fails (and you need to clear the cache).

Good luck.

Best regards,
