How to post a favicon for your forum
22 September 2009, 17:10


I got this to work which was pretty simple so I figured i would post it for everyone else.
If you want to have a custom shortcut icon for your forum, you just need to do the following. 1. To create your favicon go here: http://tools.dynamicdrive.com/favicon/

2. Place your favicon in your images folder.
3. In default.asp right below all of the includes just add
<!--#INCLUDE FILE="favicon.asp"-->

4. Create an favicon.asp page and just add the following line. <head>
<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="http://YourWebSite/YourImageFolder/favicon.ico"/>
</head>

Enjoy!

That will add a second set of <head> tags, and at best not be valid HTML - at worst it will cause some funky rendering issues.
There are some instructions already posted here for properly adding a favicon. It only requires one edit to inc_header.asp.
