Changing the favicon

Hello, I would like to change the default favicon. But I can’t access the wp-content/themes/42k/images page in order to download it there. All my images go to the wp-content/uploads page.

I tried to correct the picture location within the php code, but it still doesn’t work.

Can you please tell me how to do ?

Thanks a lot.

Hello,

You will need to use FTP to access the themes folder to change the favicon.

If you cannot access your site that way, no need to use PHP, just open up the footer.php in the theme editor (Appearance/Editor) in the Admin Panel and find this line

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="<?php echo get_bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/favicon.png" />

and change the location of the image to where you have uploaded it to.

    so, do I change the stuff in blue? I’ve got my file uploaded to the wordpress media uploading spot as well. do I copy/paste the URL for the image after “href=_____”

    I know my questions are newbie, but I’m trying to learn this.

    Thanks in advance for your help!
