[Solved] Favicon issue (vanilla is such a touchy biotch!)

edited October 2011 in Vanilla 2.0 - 2.8
I was just making a slight change to my dot htaccess file, and my favicon got replaced with image

It should be..

image

Now I cant get it back to my custom favicon. Its still in my theme design folder!

My favicon is apparent if I view source, but not on my forum.

I did search and tried adding to config.php the following..
$Configuration['Garden']['FavIcon'] = '/themes/camo/design/favicon.png';
as referenced by @Tim & @Lincoln here...

http://vanillaforums.org/discussion/comment/142120#Comment_142120

But it doesnt work. Please help, Im beginning to really hate vanilla. :)

update: I deleted all the dot ini files from cache, did a utility/update and now its the globe icon!!!

    Resolved, thanks @Tim

    solution:

    config.php

    add
    $Configuration['Garden']['Favicon'] = '/themes/YOUR THEME/design/Your favicon'; 
    p.s the /forum/forum issue was because of a root level dot htacess redirect, also resolved.

  • Another issuie, almost certainly related, when I log in im getting

    http://www.camosreptiles.com.au/forum/forum

    instead of

    http://www.camosreptiles.com.au/forum/

    dont know how to fix it. I have rewrite urls true and rewritebase /forum in the access file.

    PS We're adding a favicon upload screen in 2.1.
  • I have modified the conf/config.php file as suggested above, and I have a favicon.png file in my theme/design folder, but it seems to make no difference.

    Does anyone have any other hints please?
