Before using Thesis on Tech Exclusive, I visited few blogs with Thesis theme. I discovered amazing aspects and features of this theme, but one thing I found missing in all blogs was the favicon.
Favicon is used to display the unique identity of a website/blog on the address bar and browser tab. It is one of the important features of professional websites as it brings more authority and credibility to website and its users.
If you don’t know anything about favicon then you can refer our simple tutorial to create a favicon for website, which will give you a perfect idea of favicon and its installation process. However, adding a favicon in Thesis theme is little bit different from normal blog themes. Use the following tutorial to add favicon in Thesis theme.
Steps to Add a Favicon in Thesis Theme
1. Get a favicon.ico image file. (Preferably, 16×16 pixels)
2. Save it on root directory of your blog.
3. Open WordPress dashboard and select Thesis options.
4. Scroll down to Header Scripts and copy-paste following code in text field.
<link rel=”shortcut icon” type=”image/ico” href=”favicon.ico”>
For animated favicon -
<link rel=”icon” type=”image/gif” href=”animated_favicon.gif” >
5. Click on Save Button.
Now, check this favicon in different web browsers. Enjoy.
