Daily Tip: How to Correctly Add a Favicon to Your WordPress Site

Make Sure to Upload the Favicon to Both the Theme Directory and The Root of Your Website

This little tip is courtesy of your friend, the WordPress codex:

1. With an FTP Client, upload the new favicon.ico file into your current theme’s main folder.

2. Upload another copy of your favicon.ico file to the main directory of your site (ie. http://example.com/favicon.ico). This will display the favicon in your subscribers’ feedreaders.
