How do I add a Favicon to my PmWiki?
Adding a Favicon to PmWiki.
Add the following line to the pmwiki.tmpl template between the <head> and </head> lines.
The template can be found in the /pub/skins/yourskin/ directory
<link rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
Alternatively, you can use $HTMLHeaderFmt to place these statements in config.php instead of editing the templates.
Create a favicon.ico from a graphic.
To create a Favicon from an graphic or picture try http://htmlkit.com/services/favicon/ .
Place the favicon.ico to the base directory of your website (often /public_html/).
If you wish to place your Favicon in another directory
change the href= in the lines above to href="/pathto/favicon.ico"
and place the Favicon in that directory.
The image type may be changed to use another image type, viz type="image/png"
