Manual talk:$wgFavicon

the feature is clearly not yet introduced in 1.5.8 --192.109.246.5 09:19, 25 August 2006 (UTC) ([mailto:ah@heidemann.org AH])

The line $wgFavicon = "$wgScriptPath/logos/MySiteFavicon.ico"; doesn not seem to be in /includes/skin.php: [quote from skin.php]


 * No, you're supposed to add it to your LocalSettings.php, and change "wgScriptPath/logos/MySiteFavicon.ico" to the name of your favicon file. JohanTheGhost 23:39, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Question
I'd put this more strongly, current standards support a unique favicon for any page, please could you implement? eg perhaps one per folder, as a start. usecase: http://elinux.org/Jetson_TK1 elinux.org hosts wikis for various embedded linux projects, such as Raspberry Pi, Jetson.... it would be helpful to have a range of favicons.

Would there be any way to make each page have a different Favicon? 126.79.102.10 10:39, 15 September 2013 (UTC)

Newer favicons
The new trend for favicons appears to be PNG, with very large (192x192) icons. Are there any plans for MediaWiki to support these? 92.17.162.12 21:22, 21 March 2015 (UTC)
