Cheers Samuel Wood – this worked !

Thank you too Samuel Wood . . this worked for me too.

Exactly same issue here with latest update 4.3

Thank you for quick response. Yes, front end. wp_enqueue_script() + not listing jQuery was in place. The java script worked outside of wp and not within wp. I have to figure this out.

At least I know that Java Script should work in wp, without jQuery.

Cheers.

Job done !!

Trouble shoots/research pointed to the .png option presented here by mm_developer. And it was that simple. So thank you to mm_developer for this:

Upload a favicon.png file in the root folder. Then try like this:
<link rel=”shortcut icon” href=”https://widerthanround.com/favicon.png&#8221; />

It took 2 minutes ish.

Thanks all who helped me there.

tried that too Colin, with newly created favicon

Yeah Colin, we’re on the same page. Tried other directories and it didn’t work.

Thanks mm_developer. I will try this & post results. I tested things by adding the favicon via a plugin and it worked without issue. At least from this, I know it can.

Cheers for the tip.

Thank you Colin for reply. I looked into everything that you’ve listed and still no show. I disabled sites firewall rules, contacted host, who confirmed the .ico file was corrupted, I created an entirely new .ico file, converted it elsewhere online and it didn’t resolve it.

Strange thing is that both yourself and my hosts got the error messages at the favicon url , yours a 403 and I always get a blank window, on both opera and Chrome.

Thanks for the leads.

Thank you Andrew. That’s really good news. Cheers for quick response as well.
