Favicon

Favicon is a small icon positioned on the left of the address bar of your browser. By default, Joomla! has an icon as shown onthe screenshot below.

Favicon presentation

Here are instructions on how to do that:

Step 1: Create Favicon FileFavicon is a regular 16px * 16px icon file with exact name favicon.ico. In most cases, favicon is the sized-down version of thecompany logo saved in the icon format. In some cases, the logo is too specific and favicon needs to be built from scratch.

You can use some professional icon editor software like Axialis IconWorkshop (http://www.axialis.com/)and Iconcool Editor(http://www.iconcool.com/icon-editor.htm)or to use online favicon generators. (http://www.google.com/search?q=favicon%2Bgenerator&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-GB%3Aofficial&client=firefox-a)The first method gives you better quality, but takes more effort. The second method iseasier, but the quality is not the best.

Step 2: Upload Favicon FileAfter you have got the favicon file, it is time to upload it to your server. You will need to upload the icon file to the templatefolder via FTP.

Let’s go to joomla_root_folder/images to create a new folder and upload the favicon file there.

Upload favicon file

Step 3: Change the favicon in the template settingsGo to Extensions → Templates → Styles → Template_Full_Name - Default → System tab → Icons → choose browse file in theFavicon parameter, here you need to select favicon.ico updated before, and then click on Save System to finish.
