[WordPress] I tried installing favicon using code
Hello, this is naouniverse ( @naouniverse708 ).
We have installed a favicon, that small icon image that appears next to browser tabs, address bars, and bookmarked URLs.
I feel like having a favicon gives it a somewhat neater look when you look at it from a bird's-eye view.
You can also differentiate your site from other sites.
So, I'll leave it as a memorandum below.
In WordPress, there seems to be a convenient way to install a favicon using a plugin, but this time I installed a favicon using code as shown below.
First, convert the created image to favicon format and save it. The extension is "ico".
This time, I created a file with a file name such as favicon.ico.
Next, place the created favicon file (favicon.ico) in wp-content/themes/template name/ of WordPress.
and,<head></head> inside</head> I just added the following code.
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/favicon.ico" />
This time, I converted and used the image without resizing the logo in the header, but it still seems to display well.
(*It may not be displayed depending on the browser.)
It's relatively easy to set up, so I think there's no harm in trying it out.
